Martin says Saints win over Everton is a "big relief"

The Saints sat bottom of the Premier League take and were winless in all nine games befere hosting Everton at the St Marys on Saturday. But, Adam Armstrong’s 85th minute goal earned Russell Martin's men their first three point haul.
“It’s a big relief," admitted the Saints boss. "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".
Martin specifically praised summer signing Aaron Ramsdale, who joined the club from after a disappointing end to his career at Arsenal. "He was massive and I’m surprised he’s here still,” said Martin. “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," he added on the goalkeeper, who was named man of the match thanks to his vital saves which held the lead for the hosts. Souhtampton's next meeting sees them going up against bottom-placed Wolves on Saturday, as Martin will hope his side can bag second consecutive win at the Molineux.
