we will offer ton under a drink after sunday's game absolutely he can have whatever is in the fridge at saint mary's obviously a lot was made of it with will after the game i thought he came in strong on the handshake and that was it i thought it was a funny moment to be honest i spoke to the media after the game about what both sets of fans would expect from their players from the staff but ultimately we are not friends we're there to try to win a game we're not there to make friends with anyone
I've had a few arguments with managers which haven't been highlighted I've had some really strong words.
Myself and Frank Lampard had that bit of handbags on the bench, and then we came in and had a drink afterwards.
It was fine we just laughed about it it's a bit pathetic two grown men squabbling with each other.
That happens a lot on the touchline.
Sometimes it spills over and sometimes there's a bit of tension in the tunnel afterwards and people don't go in for a drink.
Sometimes it's absolutely fine.
You shake hands, laugh and move on.
We will always go in if we get invited.
We didn't get invited that day.
Whether we win, lose or draw, if the opposition coaching staff invite us in, we'll go in.
We always invite people in to fratten.
At St Mary's, we set up to try to not let Southampton get a foothold in the game, and we did that really well after three or four minutes.
We were dominant in the first half, so naturally the atmosphere dropped.
It became a bit more difficult for us in the second half but I suppose a drab 0-0 away from home with the pressure of that first South Coast derby wasn't a terrible result for us.
