Williamson urges Newcastle players to stay grounded

Williamson has played a major role in Toon's new-found defensive solidity that has got fans dreaming of a return to Europe for the first time in three years.

But the centre-back refuses to get carried away, with the campaign not even at its halfway point.

He said: "This is an unforgiving league, and if you start not doing the basics, then you could be off the back of six losses at the click of your fingers."
