Mauricio Pochettino hails summer signings

Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino lavishes praise on summer signings Dejan Lovren, Victor Wanyama and Pablo Osvaldo.

Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino has expressed his delight at the way in which his new signings have settled at the club.

Dejan Lovren, who joined the club from Lyon in the summer transfer window, headed home the winner in Saturday's 1-0 victory over Liverpool in the Premier League.

Following the win, Pochettino heaped praise on the defender, as well as other new recruits who performed well at Anfield.

"We're pleased for Lovren and his goal," Pochettino told reporters. "We followed him for a while and knew of his quality and we knew he could adapt to this league.

"Our other signings Victor Wanyama and [Pablo] Daniel Osvaldo have settled very well, so we're pleased with those signings."

The Saints' win over Liverpool moves them up to sixth in the table.
