Crystal Palace defender SCOTT DANN has urged the team to stay grounded after securing two wins on the bounce.

Palace moved into the top half of the Premier League table after wins at Everton and at home to Leicester on Saturday.

The 2-0 success over the Foxes was a vital clean sheet which the Liverpool-born centre half was particularly pleased with.

"The three points are the most important thing but it’s always nice to get a clean sheet, it’s the icing on the cake," he said.

"On the back of the Everton win the lads were high and confident and we took that into the [Leicester] game.

"We probably started a little bit slow but we grew into the game and, especially in the second half, we played really well and played some good stuff.

"We don’t want to get carried away. We’ve won two on the bounce and got some more points on the board but it’s a long way to go to the end of the season.

"We’ll be going into next week on a high, we’ll be wanting to carry on and get another three points on the board but like every game in the league it will be tough."
