Southampton goalkeeper Caballero reveals key role with Selles

Southampton goalkeeper Willy Caballero has revealed the way he works with manager Ruben Selles.

Caballero is rarely the first choice for the Saints, but he is a senior and well respected member of the dressing room.

Selles admitted that he leans on senior players to help him through to the end of the season as the club tries to avoid relegation.

“My job is to help all the players because they have a different view from being on the pitch," Caballero said, per the Daily Echo.

“That's why they ask me what I see during the first half.

“I always reach out to one or two guys, but there are some that come to me and ask me questions. It's beautiful because that role has helped me to grow.

Caballero continued: “Ruben, as a Spaniard, asks me what I see. We sometimes get into debates about what we can do to help the team improve because the second half is often when the game changes."
