Brighton manager Chris Hughton is adamant the club have not yet secured their Premier League safety.

The Seagulls went eight points clear of the drop zone after last night's 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur.

"No and only because I can't afford to think that way," he said.

"Probably the most important thing on my mind now is making sure that we can try and put in the same type of effort and same type of performance in these last four games.

"The only thing I can tell you is 40 points.

"That's the one that is engrained in most of us manager's minds and you probably can't afford to think any different."
