Carl Jenkinson not getting carried away by FA Cup progress

Jenkinson not getting carried away

West Ham United defender Carl Jenkinson has insisted that he is not getting carried away by the team's win over Bristol City in the FA Cup.

The Hammers reached the fifth round of the competition on Sunday with a narrow 1-0 victory over the League One side at Ashton Gate.

Despite big names such as Chelsea, Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur all out of the Cup following a weekend of shocks, Jenkinson believes that West Ham must stay focused if they want to go further.

"We don't want to get too carried away but there were some good results [on Saturday] for the smaller teams. We just think about ourselves and focused on our own game on Sunday," he told the club's official website.

"We didn't worry about the upsets or who we would be getting in the next round. We focused on Bristol City and I think it worked."

West Ham will find out who they will be facing in the fifth round when the draw takes place tonight.
