Newcastle United striker Ayoze Perez is confident they won't slack off for the remaining games of this season.

With Premier League safety assured, Newcastle missed the chance to move up to eighth in the Premier League table after they were beaten by Everton on Monday.

“It's not long to go now, just four more games. We have to be professional and concentrate and do our best," Perez said.

“We were a bit unlucky (against Everton). We could have scored a couple of times. We go again against West Brom.

“We've done really well over the last couple of months. Our goal is done. We're safe, but now we're going to keep climbing the table.

“We had a big chance (against Everton), but we didn't take it. We have to keep going and keep pushing. There are just four more games."
