Southampton captain James Ward-Prowse says they're staying grounded after a superb run of form.
They're now within three points of leaders Liverpool after seven games – Saints could even go top with a victory over Newcastle on Friday night.
Ward-Prowse told the Daily Echo: “We are five unbeaten now, so we are very happy.
“We are not going to get carried away. We know it's a long season – we just want to improve year on year.
“For us it's about making sure we apply ourselves right in every game, give ourselves the best chance to win and take it from there.
“We've got a great group of players and a great manager to guide us on the right path.
“Of course, you are going to have difficult results in the season but it's about making sure you stay focused and believing in what we are doing as a team.
“We showed that on Sunday with the quality we've got."
