The Southampton Saints Once Again Going for Premiership Glory



This squad is for real and despite selling a couple of their initial eleven top performers in Morgan Schneiderlein and Nathaniel Clyne, the Saints are going for everything in this edition of the English Premier League.

As the house that Pochetino built, that showed off with a series of top prospects coming from its academy, this squad so far is becoming a sort of player developer for the big guns of Premiership; ask that to Manu and Liverpool especially!

Players leave but since their arrival four years ago to the big circuit this squad after being saved by Poche, it has shown an all-around resilience, ambition and determination to play against the so called titans of Premiership on a one to one basis.

Being this campaign a reward and a spot in the UEFA Champions League the second tier behind Champions League, in a third round playoff with a rival to be designated and hence move to the group stages.

That was then and now under the Koeman era the squad once again looks like a sure contender to be among the top four in the overall table and although the campaign looks like a disputed tournament from now on.

These Saints can march in if they continue with their winning mentality and determination of playing a bright and top of the line football, with their academy prospects as well the newcomers obtained in the transfer market.   

The arrival of Juami from Malaga, Cedric Soares- Sporting CP, Marteen Stekelenberg- Fulham, Cuco Martina- Fulham, Jordy Clasie- FC Twente, Jordy Clasie- Feyenrood and Steven Caulker- Queens Park Rangers complete the Saints circle in it acquisitions.

Being ready with the already established and hardened squad, this squad is ready to make all sorts of headlines and stun all of its rivals in league play as well try to net a shield or two on their quest to a perfect and all around grand campaign.

There’s no stopping the Saint down in this edition of Premiership as always this squad has something to show and hidden under their sleeve, but one thing for sure this squad will contend in this entire tourney as well in the FA and Capitol One Cups.

Still this edition as the previous ones of EPL will indeed be one of the most contested and disputed throughout this upcoming 2015-16, taking another challenge it’s Manager Ronald Koeman who will like to better his club performance from last edition.  

By finishing among the top four positions in the league table will be one of his goals as well netting a shield or two in EPL internal competitions as well get into the group stage of UEFA Europa League, big list and ambitious one- but a feat not impossible for a club of this caliber.
