Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino has welcomed comparisons with Everton.
The two teams meet today.
Pochettino smiled: "It flatters me that Southampton Football Club is actually compared to Everton because Everton for the last ten, 11, 12 years has always been in the top six or top eight. Southampton has been barely two seasons in the Premier League.
"Everton have a massive squad and that's not the case with Southampton but the comparison I do like, I do relish it, because it means that we are doing things right."
