EPL: Joe Aribo ‘ashamed’ of Southampton’s position at the bottom

On Monday, March 17, 2025, Southampton midfielder Joe Aribo expressed his embarrassment over the team’s current position in the Premier League. The Saints, under manager Ivan Juric, are currently at the bottom of the table and appear set for relegation to the Sky Bet Championship.

Southampton suffered a 2-1 loss at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers at St Mary’s Stadium last Saturday, a defeat that widened the gap to safety to 17 points.

Speaking to Daily Echo, Aribo didn’t hold back, saying, “I’m going to speak for myself personally, of course, it’s embarrassing. We play football to win.”

The Nigerian international added, “I’m a winner, and it’s just a difficult time in my career for me, obviously, with what’s going on with results. I think the boys have to stick together.”

As the season nears its end, Southampton’s survival hopes continue to dwindle, leaving Aribo and the squad with much to reflect on.
