Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino knows all about the history the club has with QPR counterpart Harry Redknapp.

Pochettino is aware of the strength of feeling towards his QPR counterpart but is only focused on the game itself.

"I do know the past of Southampton, but I do not know every single detail of what happened," the Argentinian said.

"I am always interested in football matters so I have become interested in this matter as well.

"But I think my main goal is always to generate a positive atmosphere for my team and always respect what the people say.

"I will thoroughly respect whatever they want to say on Saturday, but I think what is truly important is that they get behind the team and push us to try and get the three points as best as we can."
