Michael Laudrup jolt to Southampton bid
MICHAEL LAUDRUP has dismissed Southampton’s claims that they can reach the Champions League.
Saints pair Victor Wanyama and Artur Boruc say Mauricio Pochettino’s sixth-placed outfit can end up in the top four come May. Swansea travel to St Mary’s tomorrow and Laudrup has written off Saints’ chances.
Laudrup said: “It’s always good to be ambitious but I think there are better teams than that. I like the team they have and it’s one that can be in the top 10. But spots eight, nine and 10 are the maximum we can both go for.”
