Stoke City boss Mark Robins said his side were good value for their 2-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday.
The Potters moved up to 50 points and have now won three of their past five games.
"We've still got three games to go and we still want to finish the season strongly," he told BBC Radio Stoke.
"I think from minute one to the hundredth minute we deserved the win. I thought we played some really good football, backed by a full house - my ears are still ringing.
"It was a really good day and really well-earned win on the back of a good first goal and a fortuitous second one, although when you need a goal to go in off someone's backside, there you go.
