Everton returned to winning ways in the Premier League after beating Southampton 2-1 at St Mary’s on Saturday afternoon.
The Toffees have made a poor start to the season and Marco Silva was under extreme pressure to keep hold of his job. The victory will ease some tension in the dressing room, and the Toffees can head into the international break with a positive frame of mind.
Many Everton fans took to Twitter to express their reaction on Mason Holgate’s performance. The 23-year-old started the match and produced a superb performance.
He looked calm, and composed under pressure and his distribution from the back was simply brilliant. Here are some of the best reactions from the Everton fans:
Holgate is like a new signing

I think the injuries that have plagued us will be good in the long run. It is forcing us to look for solutions in plac s not seen before. Davies and Holgate showing their class…no chance if Gbamin and Gomes in full health. We will get there and be better for it.
