“It is good to learn from these sort of people get as much experience as I can from him.

“I think he ran the most [against Chelsea], and he is a great addition to the team and he is a good guy to have around the place as well.”

Southampton will attempt to continue their decent start to the season when they take on Everton on Sunday.
