Southampton playmaker Dusan Tadic has hailed the club's new training ground as "perfect" for the players.
The club's new £39m Staplewood facility boasts a series of high-quality training pitches, including an exact replica of the St Mary's playing surface, as well as a state-of-the-art sport science department to help prevent injuries.
"This is perfect for us, and it's perfect for Southampton," Tadic is quoted as saying by the Daily Echo. "I think everyone is really impressed. It's a beautiful training ground, we have everything, and it's a pleasure to work there.
"In Twente also we have a nice one, and in Groningen also it was okay, and Serbia also we have a training centre that is really nice, but I think this is the best one.
"It is new, everything is beautiful and we are really happy that we have everything to work. We are really happy that we have that and we need to thank the owner for making that."
Tadic's manager Ronald Koeman has asked the Serb to be more selfish in front of goal as Saints prepare to host Leicester City in the Premier League this afternoon.
