    If the world is ending (see below), then we had better pack up and enjoy our final moments on this beautiful planet.

    But I'm confident that Derryn - like former Argentina goalkeeper and fellow doom-monger, Carlos Roa, external - is wrong. And that means we'll be back on Tuesday for another evening of Premier League fun. See you then!

    Derryn Davies Fry: Roberto Soldado, Chris Smalling, Joe Cole, Gael Clichy and Glen Johnson have all scored this weekend. The world is ending.

    Colin John Rudd: Normal service to be resumed by Christmas for the big four? Chelsea top, Manchester City second, Manchester United third and Arsenal fourth? I wouldn't bet against it.

    Lee Longstaff: It's a shame because Southampton were making the Premier League interesting. Now it's back to, at best, a two horse race but really I won't be surprised if some bookies start paying out on Chelsea in March!

    Southampton manager Ronald Koeman:, external Saints overpowered in the second half of a difficult game. Disappointing result. Now onwards and focus on our next match.

    That's right, Ronald. On to the next match...against Arsenal. Then Manchester United...

    Manchester City forward Sergio Aguero:, external "Happy for a victory against a tough rival that hadn't lost in their turf so far. We're closer now! C'mon, City! And very excited for my first 100 matches in the Premier League! Thanks everyone!"

    And what about Manchester City? In fairness to Roberto Martinez, the champions have not hit the heights of previous seasons - until today, that is.

    City produced an impressive display at Southampton, winning 3-0 to pose questions of the Champions League credentials of their hosts.

    Erm Roberto, have you forgotten about Chelsea? You know, the team which is walking away with the Premier League title. Perhaps the Spaniard is trying to erase this August scoreline from his mind....

  9. Manager reactionpublished at 18:48 Greenwich Mean Time 30 November 2014

    Everton manager Roberto Martinez on Everton's hopes this season: "The margins are really small in the league. For me, the two outstanding teams so far have been West Ham and Southampton. But it's too early to talk about where we are going to finish."

    On Ross Barkley's display: "Ross was fresh and looked a real threat. He's a young man who made decisions in the right areas today. I encourage him to take risks."

    On James McCarthy's hamstring injury: "There's nothing new yet. Obviously James has a hamstring problem so we are going to take bit of time and make sure he is fully recovered."

    I bet Roberto Soldado is happy man. He will be able to pick up a kebab from Seven Sisters Road on his way home from the Lane tonight, and not worry about the Spurs fan behind the counter spiking it with a huge dollop of extra hot chilli sauce. Perfect end to a perfect day.

    Everton defender Phil Jagielka, speaking to Sky Sports: "We played well for large spells but unfortunately gave the second goal away and after that we were chasing it. Christian Eriksen managed to mishit the shot and send three of our players the wrong way.

    "They pressed us really high and there were quite a few fouls, I felt we could have had better protection from the referee, and that allowed them to keep coming at us.

    "The fixture list was maybe a bit kinder to them in that we had two away games back to back. You would rather sleep in your own bed and have a bit more of a lie in, but we are not making excuses about it. That is part and parcel of playing in two competitions. We played pretty well but didn't keep the 1-0 lead long enough to make them nervous."

  14. MANAGER REACTIONpublished at 18:35 Greenwich Mean Time 30 November 2014

    Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino on Everton's claim they should have been given a late penalty (see 89 mins): "I didn't see it from my position at the time, but I've seen it on television since. It was not a penalty."

    Harvey, Belfast: Everton players looked jaded today from a massive performance at Wolfsburg. Still, should've had a penalty and Christian Eriksen should've had two yellows. Them's the breaks.

  17. Player reactionpublished at 18:27 Greenwich Mean Time 30 November 2014

    Everton captain Phil Jagielka: "There were a few tackles flying in that weren't punished, but fair play to Tottenham because they deserved the win. I'm not sure playing away in the Europa League on Thursday affected us. We had a few faces that didn't play or travel to Germany. We're not going to make it an excuse. We played quite well and kept the ball, but didn't keep the lead long enough."

  19. PLAYER REACTIONpublished at 18:22 Greenwich Mean Time 30 November 2014

    More from Tottenham forward Harry Kane, speaking to BBC Sport: "They got the early goal, the guy pulled off a wonderful strike and sometimes you have to put your hands up. But we dug deep, we got the goal back quickly and the second after half-time, and we hung on. It feels very good, I'm delighted.

    "A direct attacking style is something I have had since I was a kid, whenever I see space I like to run into it and push the centre-halves back. I got a bit today and managed to do that. Hopefully I can continue to perform and we can continue to pick up wins for the team

    "Roberto Soldado has been playing great recently, he just needed a goal to get that confidence. I'm delighted for him and hopefully he can get many more."
