James Ward-Prowse has admitted Southampton discussed using the Goodison Park atmosphere to their advantage ahead of their 2-1 win on Saturday afternoon.
It was Ward-Prowse who inspired the Saints to victory on Merseyside, scoring two second-half goals to cancel out Amadou Onana's opener and move Nathan Jones' side level on points with the Blues.
Much of the noise heading into this fixture had centred around Everton's plans to stage a sit-in protest following the full-time whistle, aimed at the board who were advised not to attend the match due to safety fears.
