Southampton 1-0 Everton: What Russell Martin said

Southampton manager Russell Martin has been speaking after today's victory:

"It's a big relief, I have happiness, pride and gratitude with the players, the staff, owners and the board. It's been a tough period.

"The guys stuck with it, the way they work, the way they train, they're an amazing group, I love being here and I want to drag it out for as long as I can.

"They (Everton) threw everything at us, they're a good team, a strong team, they're organised and make it difficult. Some of the football we played today was outstanding."

On goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale: "He was massive and I'm surprised he's here still.

"We were able to get him and I'm grateful we did and the support by everyone to get him. It took a long time to court him and persuade him to come, but he did and I hope he's getting as much from it as we are from him because his character is immense. He's got a good voice, trains properly, adds value.

"On the pitch, the save from the one from Michael Keane is a top save, he gives us moments like that and that can be the difference."
