"We respect all our opponents but we are confident at the moment, we're playing well, scoring goals and in a good position," said the midfielder after Saturday's win over Bolton.
"It's important to be towards the top but we know we have to carry on doing what we're doing if we're going to be there at the end of the season.
"We knew at 1-0 they would keep pushing us. But the second goal killed them off really and now we`re pleased to get all three points and now we have to continue.
"We should have scored more today and perhaps a fairer scoreline would have been 3-1 or 4-1, but the most important thing is the three points. We have to keep these performances up now."
