    Those two are definitely very close. Ron saying he knows Elia and his family, the goal celebration, and the way he speaks about Ron suggests that there's almost a father-son relationship.

    Erwin doing extra one on one training with Elia as well, very familial.

    If he is that grateful to Koeman and Saints, I would just like to know what they did to him in Germany. Pull out his fingernails?

    It's Germany, what else reason do you need?

    Koeman is like the Pied Piper. All his signings have turned out well. Elia has all the makings of becoming an iconic player - the polar opposite of Osvaldo.

    ... it`ll happen one day, but let`s enjoy it while he lasts. And he`ll go with our thanks and appreciation. Like Fergie when he left Aberdeen.

    Looking forward to seeing him close at hand on Saturday. Showed some nice bits of skill in dispatches in the last two games, but we've enjoyed little possession. Definitely appears to be a more skilled defender than Mane or Tadic.

    Perhaps we ought to get in touch with the fire walking motivator from 18 months ago.
