The 2015–16 Southampton F.C. season is the club's 17th season in the Premier League and their 39th in the top division of English football.[1][2] It is also the club's first season in a European competition since 2003–04.[3] As of 13 February 2016, Southampton are sixth in the Premier League having won eleven, drawn seven and lost eight of their 26 matches played.[4] The club were also knocked out of the third round of the FA Cup, the fifth round of the League Cup and the qualifying play-off round of the UEFA Europa League.[5][6][7]

Following the end of the 2014–15 campaign, Southampton released seven players.[8][9] The club also sold right-back Nathaniel Clyne to Liverpool,[10] midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin to Manchester United[11] and striker Emmanuel Mayuka to FC Metz.[12] Three players were sent out on season-long loans – Sam Gallagher to Milton Keynes,[13] Jack Stephens to Middlesbrough[14] and Jordan Turnbull to Swindon Town[15] – while Jason McCarthy and Lloyd Isgrove were sent out on loans until January.[16][17]

In the summer transfer window, the Saints made seven full signings – striker Juanmi from Málaga,[18] right-backs Cédric Soares and Cuco Martina from Sporting CP and FC Twente respectively,[19][20] midfielder Jordy Clasie from Feyenoord,[21] defensive midfielder Oriol Romeu from Chelsea,[22] goalkeeper Harry Lewis from Shrewsbury Town,[23] and centre-back Virgil van Dijk from Celtic.[12] The club also brought in goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg and centre-back Steven Caulker on season-long loans.[24][25]

In January 2016, the club signed striker Charlie Austin from Queens Park Rangers.[26] Steven Caulker's loan agreement was cut short to allow him to move to Liverpool,[27] while both Sam Gallagher and Jack Stephens returned early.[28] Sam McQueen was loaned out to Southend United,[29] Gastón Ramírez to Middlesbrough[30] Ryan Seager to Crewe Alexandra[31] and Jack Stephens to Coventry City,[32] while Lloyd Isgrove's loan spell at Barnsley was extended until the end of the season.[33] Young goalkeeper Harry Isted was released by the club.[34]

Pre-season

Southampton's lineup for the Audi Quattro Cup on 11 July 2015.

Southampton began their pre-season preparations in Austria with a friendly against German side RB Leipzig on 8 July, losing 5–4.[35] New signings Juanmi and Cédric Soares scored their first goals for the club, while Jay Rodriguez returned from a long-term injury to strike twice in the game.[35] They competed in the Audi Quattro Cup semi-final against Spanish club Valencia on 11 July, losing the game 1–0 thanks to a goal scored by Pablo Piatti.[36] Both Sadio Mané and José Fonte hit the crossbar with shots during the game, but Valencia advanced to the final.[36] In the third-place playoff match, against hosts Red Bull Salzburg, the Saints lost 2–0, thus finishing fourth in the tournament.[37]

On 15 July, Southampton faced Brighton & Hove Albion in a private match at the Staplewood training ground.[38] The Saints won the game 1–0, with Sam McQueen scoring the only goal in the final minute of the game, following a setup from Sadio Mané.[38] Three days later, they faced manager Ronald Koeman's first club FC Groningen, winning 3–0 thanks to goals from captain José Fonte, Mané and Graziano Pellè.[39] They later beat Quick '20 10–0 on 21 July, with goals including hat-tricks from Pellè and Rodriguez.[40] The Saints won their last match in the Netherlands, beating Feyenoord 3–0 with goals from Pellè, Maya Yoshida and Juanmi.[41]

The club finished their pre-season preparations at home against Spanish side RCD Espanyol on 2 August 2015.[42] The hosts went 1–0 down early on through a goal by Salva Sevilla, but equalised through Rodriguez in the last five minutes to finish the game 1–1.[42]

Premier League

August–October 2015

Southampton's first game of the season was a 2–2 draw at Newcastle United.

Southampton began their 2015–16 Premier League campaign at Newcastle United, drawing 2–2.[43] Graziano Pellè opened the scoring for the Saints, before Papiss Cissé equalised for the hosts just before half-time.[43] Newcastle scored again shortly after the break through Georginio Wijnaldum, but Shane Long equalised for the visitors in the 79th minute.[43] The following week they lost 3–0 at home to Everton, thanks to two goals from Romelu Lukaku and one from Ross Barkley.[44] The slow start to the season continued, as the Saints drew with recently promoted Watford on 23 August,[45] before they won their first game on at the end of the month by beating Norwich City 3–0.[46] Goals came from Pellè and two from Dušan Tadić.[46]

Two weeks later Southampton travelled to face West Bromwich Albion, which ended in another goalless draw.[47] The club next faced Manchester United at St Mary's Stadium on 20 September, losing 3–2 to drop to 16th in the league.[48] Pellè opened the scoring early on, before Anthony Martial equalised for the visitors shortly before half-time.[48] A second goal from Pellè was not enough for the Saints to beat United, who scored two more through a Martial second and a Juan Mata winner.[48] The club picked up their second win of the season against Swansea City on 26 September, winning 3–1 with goals from Virgil van Dijk (his first for the club), Tadić and Sadio Mané.[49]

The club beat league champions Chelsea 3–1 on 3 October 2015.

On 3 October the Saints travelled to face Premier League champions Chelsea, picking up their third win of the season.[50] The hosts took an early lead through Willian, before midfielder Steven Davis equalised just before half-time.[50] Sadio Mané took advantage of a defensive error to put Southampton in the lead on 60 minutes, before Graziano Pellè scored his fifth of the campaign to make it 3–1 for the visitors.[50] On 17 October the team hosted Leicester City, drawing 2–2 and moving up to eighth in the table.[51] Southampton scored both goals in the first half, courtesy of defenders José Fonte and Virgil van Dijk, before Jamie Vardy scored two goals in the final 30 minutes of the match to give Leicester a point.[51] On 25 October, Southampton travelled at Anfield to face Liverpool. A goal from Sadio Mané with four minutes left of regulation time cancelled out a Christian Benteke strike and resulted in a 1–1 draw.[52]

November–December 2015

To begin November, Southampton hosted local rivals Bournemouth in the first top-flight meeting between the two South Coast sides. Two first half goals in quick succession from Steven Davis and Graziano Pellè secured the 2–0 win, moving Southampton up in the table to seventh.[53] The following week, the Saints traveled north to face Sunderland, where a Dušan Tadić penalty in the 69th minute (after Ryan Bertrand was taken down by Yann M'Vila) ensured the team claimed all three points, after strong efforts from Steven Davis and José Fonte were cleared from the line.[54] After a week's break, Southampton hosted Stoke City on 21 November but lost 1–0.[55] With only one shot on target, the Saints could not cancel out the early goal from Bojan Krkić, slipping down to eighth in the table.[55] Southampton picked up a second consecutive loss the following week against title contenders Manchester City, who won relatively comfortably thanks to goals from Kevin De Bruyne, Fabian Delph and Aleksandar Kolarov.[56] Shane Long scored a consolation for the visitors.[56]

Southampton's first game in December against Aston Villa ended in a 1–1 draw to see the Saints slip further down the table into 12th.[57] Joleon Lescott opened for Villa on the verge of half time, before Oriol Romeu equalised for the hosts later in the game.[57] The following week, they went a fourth game without a win as they lost 1–0 to Crystal Palace.[58] Yohan Cabaye scored the only goal of the game shortly before the break, with the Saints failing to pressurise Palace for long periods of the match.[58] The Saints lost another game the following week at home to Tottenham Hotspur, who won 2–0 thanks to goals from Harry Kane and Dele Alli, both within the last five minutes of the first half.[59]

On Boxing Day the Saints beat second-placed Arsenal 4–0 at St Mary's.[60] Cuco Martina opened the scoring on his first league start for the club, Shane Long scored the second ten minutes after half time, captain José Fonte scored his second of the season and Long scored a second in injury time to complete the win.[60] Two days later, Southampton lost 2–1 at West Ham United, missing out on the chance to move up to ninth in the table.[61] The Saints opened the scoring within 15 minutes thanks to a Carl Jenkinson own goal, but former Southampton loanee Michail Antonio and Andy Carroll scored for the hosts in the final third of the game to pick up the win.[61]

January–February 2016

In their first game of 2016, Southampton lost 1–0 to Norwich City, dropping to 13th in the Premier League table.[62] Alexander Tettey scored the only goal of the match late in the second half, shortly after Victor Wanyama was sent off for the Saints.[62] On 13 January, Southampton beat Watford 2–0 at home to move back up to 12th in the table.[63] Shane Long headed in the opener in the 17th minute from a Matt Targett delivery, before substitute Dušan Tadić secured the win in the second half with a close range effort.[63] Three days later the Saints beat West Bromwich Albion 3–0 with two goals from James Ward-Prowse and one from Dušan Tadić to move up to tenth in the table.[64] The following week, Southampton picked up their third consecutive league win, over Manchester United at Old Trafford.[65] The only goal in the game came just before full time courtesy of new signing Charlie Austin.[65]

On 2 February, Southampton travelled to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal, which ended in a goalless draw.[66] Goalkeeper Fraser Forster was named the man of the match, after making a string of impressive saves to keep a clean sheet for the visitors.[66] The club beat West Ham United 1-0 later in the week, extending their run of consecutive clean sheets to five games, with defender Maya Yoshida scoring the only goal of the game within the first ten minutes.[67] The match also saw Victor Wanyama pick up his third red card of the season.[67] On 13 February Southampton travelled to face Swansea City, winning 1–0 and advancing to sixth in the Premier League table.[68] Shane Long scored the only goal of the game in the second half, levelling Graziano Pellè as the season’s top scorer.[68]

Southampton were drawn in the third round of the 2015–16 League Cup against Championship side Milton Keynes Dons. The Saints won the match easily 6–0.

Aston Villa (28 October 2015)

In the fourth round, Southampton drew Premier League side Aston Villa at home.

Liverpool (2 December 2015)

For the fifth round, Premier League side Liverpool visited St Mary's Stadium.
