Not sure if this has been mentioned yet but we haven't conceded a goal away from home since the Newcastle game. 3 away clean sheets on the trot in the Premier League is a great accomplishment. And even more so considering we used to ship goals away from home on a regular basis.
 
We have been lucky a few times, still comical at times. Against reading our defence messed up and if le fondre would have scored then everyone would be on their back, and a glimpse of nerves yesterday when yoshida cleared off the line after a mix up at the back. But all in all we do look a lot better at the back I agree, just need to cut these silly mistakes out :)
 
Still needs improving, in my opinion. They're in good form right now, and Yoshida and Hooiveld have certainly earned this run in the side, but I'd kill for another Lundekvam.

Well lets see how Forren gets on when he finally gets in the team.
 
Will be interesting to see how we progress in the summer. How we go about it etc.

I imagine, pretty similar to the past. Exciting times set to continue though, I hope.

I'd kill for another Killer! Great to read this post as I had not realised we hadn't conceded in our last three away.

Despite Lallana trying his best to lay on a goal for the Swans and Fox thinking its funny to boot the ball at Jos to see if it will bounce over Boruc
 
He plays for Norway as well. The lad joined us during the Norwegian off-season, and is competing with two in-form CBs. I'm almost certain it's been a case of not fixing what ain't broke, and giving Vegard time to get used to the Southampton way.
