Norwich City manager Chris Hughton says that his team still have work to do before they are safe from relegation.

Chris Hughton has insisted that his Norwich City side are "not safe" from relegation just yet.

This afternoon's 2-1 victory over Reading at Carrow Road has moved the Canaries seven points clear of the Premier League's relegation zone with four matches left to play.

However, despite the fact that his team's position is now looking more favourable, manager Hughton has chosen to remain cautious.

"We're certainly not safe yet although the win will help us get to where we want to be. All we can do is put ourselves in the best position we can. We have four more games to get the required points," he told BBC Sport.

Next up for Norwich is a trip to Stoke City.
