Southampton manager Jones rejects claims of Caleta-Car bust-up

Southampton manager Nathan Jones has rejected claims of a bust-up with Duje Caleta-Car.

Jones insists they've been victims of internet rumours.

“That's a non-story. There's nothing like that," he insisted, speaking ahead of the visit from Wolves. “I mean, to be fair, I've been in groups, very successful groups, where they are and there's aggression on the training ground, but here is a good group.

“It's a group that gets on, it's a group that's honest and that's one of the positive. They're working hard, our running stats and our aggression stats are up. So they're working hard and it's a good group.

“Everyone looks in when you're not winning games and stuff but it's not that, we just haven't been good enough in games, and I take full responsibility for that."

Jones added: “And that's the only thing. If we were getting results this would be a more wonderful place because it already has a good atmosphere. There is a good spirit in the changing room, around the camp and there's good competition and there's no issues like that."
