Gutierrez Puts Europe Out Of His Thoughts

Jonas Gutierrez insists Newcastle will not be distracted by the possibility of European football next season.

Jonas Gutierrez: "We are not thinking about (the Champions League). We are just thinking about the next game.

"We are in a good position, but I think the team and all of the players, we don't think about what the fans and the press are saying.

"We are trying to focus on the games that we have left.

"That is what has brought us success so far and that is what we must continue to do.

"We know we are having a great season, but we have to focus game-by-game and that means not thinking ahead of ourselves.

"We are thinking about Tottenham only - no-one and nothing else.

"We always knew the type of player that Papiss Cisse is, but we didn't know what he could do, because you only learn about a player when you play with him.

"It was important that his first moment with the club was to score. He and Demba will be a good partnership."
