West Bromwich Albion's Darren Fletcher: 'There's still so much to play for'

Darren Fletcher believes that West Bromwich Albion still have plenty to play for following last weekend's FA Cup exit.

West Bromwich Albion midfielder Darren Fletcher has urged his teammates to recover from their FA Cup exit by focusing on the Premier League.

The Baggies were dumped out by Aston Villa at the quarter-final stage last weekend in a 2-0 defeat at Villa Park.

In the league, Tony Pulis's side are 13th in the table on 30 points from 28 games.

In his Albion News column, Fletcher wrote: "There is still a very big job ahead of us in the Premier League so you can't afford to be too down for too long. There is so much still for us to play for this season, and we need to be clear about the job in front of us.

"We hit the 30-point mark against Southampton which was very important and now we have 10 games left in our season. We have to keep on putting points on the board week by week, and the sooner we can get ourselves up to 40 points, the better."

Fletcher joined the Baggies from Manchester United in January.
