Southampton loanee Ryan Bertrand has praised the club and its managerial setup after completing his season-long switch from Chelsea.
The wing-back described the Saints as "a fantastic club" and spoke highly of manager Ronald Koeman.
"For me personally, this is another chance to play and a chance to join a fantastic club that's moving in the right direction," he told the club's website. "With the setup 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."
Bertrand's loan deal is said to include a contract clause enabling Southampton to buy him at the end of the season.
