Newcastle United midfielder Yohan Cabaye has insisted that he is keeping his feet on the ground in terms of the club's chances for this season.

The Magpies, who managed to finish fifth in the 2011-12 campaign, have secured three wins on the bounce and currently sit seventh in the Premier League table after 15 games.

"It is too early to start getting carried away," the Northern Echo quotes Cabaye as saying. "Five wins out of the last six matches is a very good record, and hopefully at the end, we will have the same finish as we did two years ago. We can't afford to think about the future too much at this stage, though."

Cabaye managed to give his side all three points against Manchester United last weekend by scoring the only goal in the game at Old Trafford.
