Following Saturday afternoon's Sky Bet League 1 victory over Southend United, Walsall manager Dean Smith spoke to the club's official website and discussed his satisfaction as his side collected their first league victory of the season.
Speaking to Saddlers.co.uk, Dean said; “It was a very satisfying win because I watched their first two games and they’re a good team. Certainly in the first half, we were completely dominant and it was a pleasure to watch.”
“I think our second goal killed the game off, of course they had a bit of pressure in the last five minutes but other than that we were very comfortable.
“Tom’s taken his goal really well again and he had some really good support in Sam Mantom and Reece Flanagan both getting into the box.”
“I think Jason was alongside Tom when he scored so it shows again how attacking we have been today. “The team performance as a whole was outstanding. It wasn’t about any one player.
“We controlled the game for large periods and created a lot of good chances again.“
