He said: "Darren has got so much quality, it's just transferring that to the pitch and getting him games on a regular basis.

"We will just take the next game individually and try and win that," he said.
"We can't look any further ahead than that. We've been bottom for a little while now, so we have to make sure we just look and try and win the next game, come what may.

"But I'm so pleased for the players and the supporters that travel week in, week out.
