Yohan Cabaye focused on beating Queens Park Rangers

Newcastle United midfielder Yohan Cabaye has declared that his struggling squad are focused on earning three precious points against Queens Park Rangers this weekend.

Alan Pardew's side have been dragged into a desperate relegation battle after winning just one of their last six matches.

The Magpies can move closer to safety and reach 41 points with victory at Loftus Road on Sunday, with Cabaye adamant that there are no divisions in the dressing room ahead of that crunch clash.

He told The Mirror: "It is going to be very important to get three points. It is only about us now, not Wigan Athletic, Norwich City or anybody else.

"In the dressing room, everything is OK here. The French players all want to adapt well. We are all focused together.

"We wanted to show we are together. We have stayed focused on being safe and playing in the Premier League next season. That is the most important thing."

Newcastle will drop into the bottom three tonight if Wigan defeat Swansea City at the DW Stadium.
