Of course the difficult thing is for us no, but for people to understand, everyone has different opinions in every game, sure you pick one or another. Thats the good thing in football and to respect all the opinions. In our side is all the information we have every day and after to take the best decision to mix in the best way the team and the performance. It doesnt always work, like after Chelsea or Inter I was so humble after those two victories. I said today it is working and tomorrow maybe it doesnt work.”Kelvin Davis (Southampton): “Technically I think we have got fantastic players. There has obviously been something missing that hasnt been turning those draws into wins. Maybe I can add that little bit extra and if we see a little bit of that it might be the difference that gets us the points we need.”Team news
