Sylvain Distin[LNB]SYLVAIN DISTIN believes that Everton's priceless 'band of brothers' spirit helped propel them to wins over Chelsea and Manchester United.[LNB]The Toffees came through a tough February fixture list with the scalps of two of the Premier League's top four, and the centre half insists that the chemistry between the squad is more important than big-money signings.[LNB]He said: 'That is something money can't buy.[LNB]'The atmosphere and the chemistry between players is something you need, as well as big players.[LNB]'You need to feel good together as you spend a lot of time together, sometimes more time than we spend with our families.[LNB]'You have to work hard for each other and you need a good team spirit to do that.'[LNB]Distin partnered Phil Jagielka for the first time in central defence during the 5-1 thrashing of Hull and was encouraged by their performance.
