“We’re looking to win every game. At the minute we’ve not picked up enough wins so we’re going into it looking for three points and we’ll be trying everything to do that.
“I feel like I’m getting stronger all the time so it’s just about making an impact when I come on and if I’m playing, doing enough to keep hold of the shirt.
“It’s two unbeaten at the end of the day so we’ve got to look at it that way and build on those two points. If we can win on Boxing Day and even win again against Sheffield United then it looks a lot better for us.”
