Southampton’s first matchday programme of 2021 is now on sale, as Shane Long recalls his past heroics against Monday’s opponents Liverpool in a special feature interview to see in the new year.

The striker reflects on not one but two career-defining nights at Anfield, and outlines his ambitions for the year ahead after making his first start of the season on Boxing Day.

The theme of nostalgia continues in a catch-up with former skipper José Fonte, who shares his favourite memories from his time as a Saint, including his finest personal performance, most influential manager and funniest teammates.

Jose Fonte celebrates during the Barclays Premier League match between Southampton and Arsenal at St Mary's Stadium, Southampton, England on 26 December 2015.

Free to return to the touchline, manager Ralph Hasenhüttl reflects on an unusual matchday against West Ham and previews the challenge of facing one of the top teams in Europe, while Kyle Walker-Peters discusses the intense festive fixture schedule from a player’s point of view.

Cult hero Franny Benali recalls a memorable Saints display against the Reds from yesteryear, while club historians David Bull and Duncan Holley also pen feature articles with a nod to the past.

Sam Tighe takes a tactical look at what to expect from the Liverpool of today, while there’s the usual helping of quizzes and games in our Junior Members section of the publication.
