Leeds goalkeeper Illan Meslier claims "the job is not done" despite their solid first half to the campaign.
Leeds are comfortably clear of the relegation fight at the midway point of their first season back in the Premier League and have 26 points.
Meslier insists they cannot ease up after recording their first win of 2021 over Newcastle and says they must keep climbing the table.
"It's been a good job, 26 points in the first year back in the Premier League," said the French Under-21 international.
"We're in a good position, but the job is not done, we need to win more.

Leeds dedicated their 2-1 win at St James' Park to their physio Rob Price, who has suffered a family trauma.
The club have not revealed any details out of respect for Price and skipper Liam Cooper says they all share his pain.

Cooper tweeted: "When one suffers we all suffer. Condolences to Rob and his family. That was for you and yours mate."
England midfielder Kalvin Phillips tweeted: "Hard fought win! That one is for Big Rob and the Price family. We are all thinking of you mate."
Price joined Leeds in June 2018 after stints at Hull, Liverpool, the FA and FIFA and is the club's head of medicine and performance.
Leeds chairman and majority shareholder Andrea Radrizzani claimed he was praying for Price and his family.
Radrizzani tweeted: "My prayers with Rob and his family, such sad news. Good gesture from the lads."
