Saints fans will be delighted to hear that Ryan Bertrand is now a permanent Southampton player, the right back has impressed in his six months at the club and the sky sports announcement was soon followed by an official notification on the Club' official website suggesting that this was a deal done earlier just not announced till the last minute.
