The striker underlined his recent return to form by taking his tally to eight in his last six games as the Toffees came from 3-2 down to win the Barclays Premier League thriller at Goodison Park.
Having never even scored a hat-trick in England's top flight before, Saha's performance was an obvious career highlight, but the 32-year-old preferred to focus on the performance of the team.
The Frenchman said: "It is always a nice feeling when you are scoring goals and winning is the main thing about being a footballer. I am glad we got the result we deserved. I feel very good. The confidence in the camp is really good - it helps you when you get lads who are fully confident."
Saha felt he should have had five but had another disallowed after referee Kevin Friend blew for a foul on Seamus Coleman a few seconds earlier.
Saha said: "The referee, once he blew he couldn't come back. It is a shame because it is a rule where it could be advantage - but the main thing is to get three points."
