Fraser Forster: 'Southampton gave me a fresh start'

Southampton goalkeeper Fraser Forster says that he has been enjoying a "fresh start" since joining the club from Celtic in the summer.

Fraser Forster has said that he has been given a "fresh start" since moving to Southampton in the summer.

The goalkeeper made a £10m move from Scottish champions Celtic to St Mary's this summer after four years in Glasgow and has helped them to the best defensive record in the division after 11 games.

The England international told Sky Sports News: "I'll always be thankful for what Celtic did for me. I have absolutely tremendous memories from there. I just felt in the summer it was time for something new, a fresh start.

"Southampton gave me that and we've had a great start. It's been brilliant and I've loved every minute. It's now important to work as hard as I can, play as well as I can and see where we go from there.

"Credit for our start goes to the manager, Ronald Koeman, and the coaches for the side they have put together. But it's only a start. There's still three-quarters of the season to go. It's important we hit the ground running again after the international break."

Southampton, who sit second in the Premier League table, face Aston Villa tomorrow.
