The good think is we killed them off in about 20-30 minutes then second half we just made sure we kept it tight, it's starting to feel like we are controlling games a lot more and we look like we can turn on the pressure whenever we want.
 
Dunno if it's been mentioned, but the lead up to Osman's goal had (at least) 20 consecutive Everton passes (involving Heitinga, Neville, Jagielka, Howard, Baines, Coleman, Mirallas, Fellaini and Osman - only Pienaar didn't touch it in the move as Jelavic got the touch prior to Osman's finish) prior to the Mirallas cross, and no Southampton player got a touch on the ball until the keeper picked it out of the back of the net. Fantastic football.

I know it was beautiful. Mind for like the first half of that move everyone around me was bitching that we weren't getting forward quickly enough.

Like watching Barcelona, ffs.

It was absolutely ace. No hoofball from Jagielka when he had the chance, patient build up, no rushing or lashing at it, one-twos (Coleman and Mirallas), Neville sitting deep dictating play (lol!), then a superb cross and top finish.

Amazing goal. Second one wasn't bad too with Mirallas and Fellaini in tandem.
 
They done well at closing down from the front for the first twenty minutes but once we got into our groove we passed them all over the show.

Was laughing at their fans thinking that acting dead zany and singing every two minutes has an effect on the game the small time bellends.
 
I was slightly disappointed we didn't go for the kill in the second half, mind, but the game was won and all in all it was another beautiful performance. I'm loving Moyes' "I'd pay to watch that" comments. :lol:
