Leandro Bacuna: 'Aston Villa must keep going'

Leandro Bacuna calls on his Aston Villa teammates to stay focused during the final weeks of the season.

Aston Villa midfielder Leandro Bacuna has urged his teammates to keep their focus as they fight to avoid relegation from the Premier League.

The Villans sit two points clear of the drop zone with three games left to play following Saturday's crucial 3-2 win over Everton.

Having boosted their survival hopes by beating the Toffees, Bacuna is confident that Villa can hold their nerve and secure their top-flight status for another year.

"We're doing well together," the 23-year-old Dutchman told the club's official website. "Over the last few games we've played well. We're really happy at the moment with how the team are doing.

"We just need to keep going. That's the most important thing. We can't drop our level. If we keep playing like we have done in the last few weeks we'll have a lot of confidence heading into the final three league games."

Tim Sherwood's side are back in action this Saturday when they face West Ham United at Upton Park.
