Tino Livramento admits it's surreal to be playing with childhood friend Armando Broja at Southampton.

It's no surprise to Livramento that his friend has seized his chance with two goals in his first two starts.

“He had to wait a little bit, he was patient, working hard in training," Livramento told the Daily Echo, “but he learnt.

“I've known him since the age of nine, I know what he is about and I knew that when he got the opportunity he would take it."

He continued: “I'm looking forward to continuing to link up with him when we can and helping the team to more points.

"I'm really happy for him that he's showing it on the biggest stages. It's a bit surreal, both having grown up at Chelsea, in the youth groups together.

"As soon as I saw him coming on loan here I knew it was going to be great to play together and I'm just enjoying, like he is, every minute."
