Shola Ameobi admits it's exciting times at Newcastle United.
The 30-year-old striker insists the players will not let the prospect of qualifying for Europe undo all their good work.
"It's great to be a part of, it's exciting times for Newcastle so hopefully we can keep our heads and keep focused until the end of the season.
"The manager is putting a squad together that want to work for each other and do well and that's all we can ask really. We're in sixth position and I know a lot of people wouldn't have put us in that place at this stage, but there's a lot of hard work and effort gone into what we've done this year.
"We've got to be focused and keep our heads level.""There's a lot of good teams behind us so we just have to focus on the next few games and see where it takes us," he told The Journal.
