He said:
"We were not interested in what Manchester United did - nobody even asked. We just want to keep extending our lead and the only way to do that is by winning games, not speculate on other results, and we got what we wanted.
"It is up to us to keep performing now, everything is in our hands."
He also confirmed that Seaman and Cole will both be fit for the trip to Amsterdam, although on the evidence of Stuart Taylor's performance today he needn't worry too much - the young 22 year-old played a blinder.
We're five points clear at the top now - a very useful cushion.
