Clyne says Southampton players happy playing for Pochettino

Southampton fullback Nathaniel Clyne says the players are happy playing for manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Since arriving Pochettino has changed a number of things - but Clyne feels his system is working.

"With a foreign manager, it is a bit different, different way of training, different way of playing - I have never pressed as much as he likes us to now but it is working," he told Sky Sports.

"If it makes us fitter and better players, then why not - we seem to be doing well from it and I feel a lot stronger, it is hard to take on but it is good.

"It is still early in the season, I set targets like five assists and two goals and if I get that I will be happy - I need to score more goals really my friends keep telling me I need to score more."
