Newcastle United boss Alan Pardew is reluctant to talk targets after overseeing his team's recent revival.
Indeed, Pardew is cautious about setting any goals.
He told the Evening Standard: "We have so many young players we are not sure how good they are going to be. We have had serious blows through injury this year. Our biggest signing, Siem de Jong, has played one game [as a 70-minute substitute]. Fabricio Coloccini will miss the next three games.
"He's a terrific presence on the pitch, not only a leader of men but he has a great way of leading. He never looks ruffled and gives that assurance to the team. In a pride of lions, he is the lion sitting on the hill looking over his brood, so losing him is going to be a blow."
