Shay Given: "It's good to go into the Christmas period with this win under our belt.

"We have a home game against Tottenham next weekend and they're around us as well. Hopefully, we can get massive confidence from the Portsmouth game and beat Tottenham. It won't be easy, but they play in the Uefa Cup on Thursday and hopefully that will be to our advantage.

"Another away game, another clean sheet - maybe we should play away every week!.

"It was a massive victory for us because we knew we had sneaked into the bottom three because of the results on Saturday. It was important to get out of that as quickly as possible.

"We've gone up to 14th and that just shows you how close the league is. One win can make a massive difference, but it was important we got that win, especially away from home."
