Premier League after last week's Wear-Tyne derby
defeat to Sunderland.
Daryl Janmaat is refusing to panic despite Newcastle United's
lowly position, insisting it is too early to accept the club are in a
relegation scrap.
The 10 men of Newcastle crashed to a 3-0 Premier League
defeat at Sunderland in Saturday's Wear-Tyne derby after
Fabricio Coloccini was controversially sent off.
A sixth loss in 10 matches has left Newcastle languishing
second-bottom on six points, two adrift of safety.
While Janmaat knows Newcastle must start collecting points
sooner rather than later, the Netherlands international full-back
believes Steve McClaren's men have time to turn their form
around.
"It is too early to say," Janmaat said when asked by the
Newcastle Chronicle if his team-mates are embroiled in a
relegation fight.
"It is a worry, that's normal because we are now in the
relegation positions, so we have to do better and win games
soon.
"Next week we have Stoke at home and we have to win that."
Janmaat added: "I don't like excuses, and of course we wanted
to win. I would prefer to play s** and win.
"But we can build on this. This can still give us confidence. We
have to continue like this.
"In the last few games we have been better and better. We have
to continue how we have played and then I believe the points
will come."
