The former Chelsea left full back and the current Southampton man speaks to
skysports.com on his recent move to St Mary.
"I wanted to sign and commit somewhere instead of carrying on doing loans. When I had the chance to sign here, it was the perfect match," the left-back told Southampton's website.
"I have really enjoyed my time here in the first half of the season and I'm delighted to make it permanent.
"Whether I'm on loan or permanent, I will give 100 per cent, no problem, but moving here gives me added incentive as well.
"Finally I can say this is my club and I'm proud to do that. The work starts here and I'm really looking forward to it."
"I want to keep progressing as a footballer,"
"Hopefully we can progress as a team and go on to achieve some really great things. It's no fluke where we are in the league at the minute.
"We're playing to the best of our ability and striving to become better players. If we all maintain our hard work we can only go forward as a club."
