West Bromwich Albion midfielder Claudio Yacob says they cannot get carried away with their flying start to the season.

The combative midfielder is refusing to get carried away with third-placed Albion's start to the season.

"There's a long way to go and it's a long championship," Yacob told the WBA website. "I feel it's important that we accumulate as many points as possible by about December.

"I think by Christmas we need to have collected as many points as possible and then after December we will be able to see what sort of position we can get West Brom in.

"In terms of the performance obviously winning is a good habit to get into.

"We have a winning rhythm.

"I don't see a problem in terms of future games as I think we can carry on with that pattern."
