Ryan Bertrand is delighted with his move to Southampton.
The Chelsea fullback has joined Saints on a season-long loan.
The England international told the Saints website: "For me personally, this is another chance to play and a chance to join a fantastic club that's moving in the right direction.
"With the set-up the club's got, the manager it has coming in and the ethos it has, I thought this was a perfect match.
"The manager's name speaks for itself, so to play under somebody like that will be good for me. His ethos and the way he plays matches my game.
"I had a lot of options and a lot of interest but, having met the people and spoken to the manager and seen what the club is about, in my mind this was the perfect decision.
"I'm looking to get games and to play regularly in the way and the formation that I like, and I'm sure that will benefit my game. I still think the best is yet to come from me."
