Taider Leaves Southampton ?

Media reports are saying that Saphir Taider has left the club after barely a month of his season long loan deal completed.

According to the media in Italy Taider has been unable to settle i England and has gone back to Inter Milan who will imediately loan him straight out to another Italina side Sassuolo.

Why Taider found it hard to settle is unclear although it seems that Ronald Koeman wasn't a big admirer after the pre season games with Taider an unused sub in both of the opening Premier league fixtures.

When it came to the Capital One Cup with Millwall most assumed that taider would get a start, but again he was on the bench and again he never got onto the pitch.

This seemed a strange turn of events but clearly something was afoot behind the scenes and seemingly a big part of that was Koeman did not see anything in Taider that was better than what he already had, perhaps this was a product of Taider finding England alien to him as his girlfriend confirmed on her twitter account that the player hated it from the very first day and would have gone straight home if she had not persuaded him to stay and see if it got better, clearly this wan't a reflection of anything from a Saints point of view, just that he did not like the country and culture.

This is assuming that the reports are accurate, but Taider's lack of game time suggests that they could very well be.
