Southampton goalkeeper Fraser Forster hailed their victory over Arsenal.
Jan Bednarek scored the game's only goal late in the first half after the Gunners had failed to adequately deal with a Saints corner.
Forster said: "It feels fantastic. It was a great reaction. Obviously last week was hard [against Chelsea]. There has been a lot of soul searching during the week, but it shows the desire of the squad.
"The lads were keen to show a reaction and work hard during the week, and that hard work has paid off.
"There were some nice saves in there. It's always nice to contribute and keep a clean sheet. It's a goalkeeper's dream, really.
"Ideally we'd like to finish in the top half. If we want to do that we've got some work to do. We're hoping for a strong finish between now and the end of the season.
"I'm just working as hard as ever, trying to keep improving my game and see where that takes me."
