What a great result this is and keeping a clean sheet without Vic and Morgan! Was not expecting this when I woke up.
Only disappointment? Didn't use the third sub. More teenagers! All the teenagers, dammit! Took so well to this shape that I wonder whether we might see it again, even when we're back to full strength. Very composed performance given the run we were on.
That is a great, great win. Many congratulations and hats off to Ronald, his staff and the team. Just what we needed. Harry Reed really does look a good prospect.
Reed made 15 tackles, Everton as a team made 13. That might well be a record. All of a sudden quite a selection dilemma for Ron!
I was calling for Reed to come on Arsenal. Based on what I just saw, he should have come on when Cork went off. He was unbelievable today.
Here's my match report, if any of you dare nip over to 'the dark side' to read it. SAINTSWEB MATCH REPORT: http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/content.php?532-MATCH-REPORT-SAINTS-2-0-Everton-Barclays-Premier-League
The MOTD running order: QPR v WBA, Man City v Crystal Palace, Aston Villa v Man Utd, Southampton v Everton, Tottenham v Burnley, West Ham v Leicester, Hull v Swansea Fair enough.
Very good write up DTLW. The only things I would change is that the stonewall penalty shout shouldn't have been a corner, but we scored from it, and you should have mentioned Dom Gape's debut.
