Mauricio Pochettino hopes Southampton players will take inspiration from Nou Camp trip to Manchester United The Southampton squad returned from the trip on Saturday night and, despite the language barrier, Pochettino is confident that his players now have a full understanding of his expectations as they prepare to face Manchester United. "We achieved everything we wanted out of the trip to Barcelona, the togetherness of the team was very important to us and the players got to know us [the coaching staff] and we got to know the players well," said the Argentine. Being together 24 hours of the day was important, not just three or four hours a day in a training session. I think I'm communicating well with the players and most of the time the communication is about gestures than verbal communication. I want to establish my own identity as a manager and the way I want my team to play is dynamic, aggressive and attacking football because that is what I feel. Pochettino was delighted with how the team adapted in his first match as manager in the goalless draw against Everton and he could be further boosted tonight by the return to the squad of captain Adam Lallana, who has been absent for almost two months with a knee injury. Vegard Forren could also make his debut for Southampton tonight at centre-back, with the Norway international comparing the style that Pochettino wants to the pressing game that has been almost perfected by Barcelona.
