Alan Pardew: 'We can't relax'

Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew insists that his side can't afford to relax, despite sitting eight points clear of the relegation zone.

Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew believes that his side still have work to do to guarantee their Premier League status for another year.

Last week's 3-1 victory over Queens Park Rangers took Palace eight points clear of the relegation zone, but ahead of their meeting with Stoke City, Pardew has insisted that his team "can't relax" during the final two months of the season.

The 53-year-old told reporters: "We can't relax. Two results for one of those bottom teams and it will be very tight again, so we know we still have work to do."

Pardew has won seven of his 12 matches at Selhurst Park since being appointed as the club's new manager at the start of 2015.
