Southampton produced what might be their best result of the season, beating league leaders Coventry 2-1 away from home to move within three points of the play-off places.
In Episode 366 of the Total Saints Podcast, Martin Starke is joined by Glen de la Cour, Alfie House (Daily Echo) and Tom Prentki to break down a huge win at the CBS Arena and what it means for Saints’ promotion push.
The panel discuss Tonda Eckert’s tactical switch to a 4-1-4-1 system, the standout performances from Flynn Downes, Matsuki and Daniel Peretz, and whether this victory finally proves Saints can compete with the Championship’s top sides.
There’s also debate around the team’s improved defensive structure, the growing momentum heading into the final stretch of the season, and whether Saints now have the belief to push for the play-offs.
Looking ahead, Saints return to St Mary’s for two important home fixtures, starting with Norwich City on Wednesday night. With the Canaries in strong form themselves, the panel preview the challenge ahead and give their score predictions.
Elsewhere, we round up the latest Southampton news including the FA Cup quarter-final against Arsenal, the latest injury updates, and the ongoing Benali on Tour fundraiser supporting the Saints Foundation.
