For several years now, Southampton have been a go-to club for many people's Career Mode. They always seem to have enough young talent to entice you into playing with them, as well as enough flaws that will take a bit of time to challenge for the title.

This year is no different, except the possibility of relegation early on has grown as bit. Should you make it through the initial rough period, the world's your oyster.

Unlike many Premier League clubs, Southampton's weak point isn't their defence. A quality striker to finish of chances is clearly the biggest absence in the team. Southampton are armed with 9 players 25 or under who are expected to reach a rating of at least 80, but none of them are strikers.

Skillful wingers Nathan Redmond and Soufiane Boufal are two players who will add a bit of spark to your game, as James Ward-Prowse and Pierre-Emile HĂžjbjerg will be staples of the midfield for a fair while. A Southampton Career Mode will be a fun journey that sees young players grow into some of the best in the world.
