He said: "It is important that the staff and senior players are right on it. We have all been involved in football long enough.

"Some of the younger guys maybe haven't seen that brick wall round the corner that you can always hit in football.

"It is so important that we warn the players away from complacency and thinking that we are better than what we might be.

"I still believe it is a work in progress. I need to become better the same as the players do and if we keep working and showing the correct attitude, we will improve.

"I'm a great believer in that work ethic.

"I believe it comes from the staff and the senior players to make sure everybody is setting that standard on a daily basis, to ensure you are not setting yourself up for a fall somewhere along the line."
