Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino has insisted that he has no problems with referee Mark Clattenburg being chosen to officiate this weekend's clash against West Ham United.
The club lodged an official complaint against Clattenburg following a conversation that he had with Saints captain Adam Lallana during a match in December.
Despite the Premier League outfit's original stance, Pochettino has insisted that there are no issues with the match official.
"For us, it's a closed chapter," Sky Sports News quotes Pochettino as saying. "To be honest I am happy that we will have him as the referee. It doesn't worry me.
"I haven't spoken to him since but that is why I'm happy to see him on Saturday. I'm happy to say 'hello' to him and I will try to help him as much as I can from the sidelines.
"It's good that we can put things back to normal out of something that was taken out of context."
Clattenburg was cleared of any wrongdoing by the relevant governing bodies.
