Reading manager Brian McDermott insists he is not getting too carried away with his side's current standing as Championship league leaders.
The Royals jumped to the summit of the tier two table courtesy of a 3-1 win at Southampton on Friday night, with the Saints dropping to second, but the boss is not looking too far ahead despite winning 14 of the last 16 league games.
"There's nothing to be said as far as that's concerned. We have to do what we have to do and we have to perform, do what we've been doing all season and concentrate solely on each game.
"Before the games against Brighton and Southampton I would have taken being one point in front of the third team going into the last three games of the season. The lads have put us in a fantastic situation, they've put us six points in front of the third team.
"It's a really good situation but I've been around this game a long time and you know the pitfalls, so we absolutely focus. I could see that focus in the dressing room after the Southampton game. There was no jumping around that dressing room, there was just complete focus - ready for the next game.""I don't want to jump too far ahead, I can't, it's not in my nature," he told Sky Sports.
