gaffer has come in<\/a> and hit the ground running. <\/p>\n“He’s also added a couple of top quality additions who’ve fitted in straight away. I think we are where are because of the group and how hard we run, how hard we work for each other. <\/p>\n
“He reminds of that every day in training, and as long as we keep sticking together like we are, the sky’s the limit.”<\/p>\n
Latibeaudiere was making his first appearance of the season at St Mary’s after sustaining bone-bruising while on international duty with Jamaica at the CONCACAF Gold Cup in June.<\/p>\n
“I got it at a really bad time, and missed most of pre-season,” he added. “It took a while, and I’m back ready now, feeling fresh. The boys have been class, and I’m just glad to be part of it now.”<\/p>\n
Flu in the Coventry camp at the weekend meant Latibeaudiere played alongside Luke Woolfenden for the first time, with the latter having arrived from Ipswich in the summer.<\/p>\n
“We’ve actually become really close because we’ve not been playing,” he said. “That is really tough for players because that’s all we want to do. <\/p>\n
“We’ve had those days where you come and its like, ‘I’m doing this again’, so getting each other through that and doing extra sessions after training really paid off, and I thought we were really good together.<\/p>\n
“Its been tough mentally, but there have been a few players in the same boat and we’ve just stuck together and got ourselves through those tough moments, and we were always ready. <\/p>\n
“When the time came I knew I was ready, I was prepared, and I just loved being out there.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Coventry City defender Joel Latibeaudiere says the “togetherness” of the squad is their driving force as they head…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":363830,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[403,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-363829","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-soccer","8":"tag-soccer","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/363829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=363829"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/363829\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/363830"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=363829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=363829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=363829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
