Smith insists he is not getting carried away despite his side's outstanding start to the season.

Goals from Liam Kinsella and Tom Bradshaw saw the Saddlers earn a deserved 2-0 victory over fellow high-flyers Burton Albion on Saturday.

The result, in front of almost 7,000 fans at the Banks's Stadium, allowed Smith's side to leapfrog their opponents and move back to the top of the League One.

They have 25 points from their opening 12 games but, despite another fine team performance, the Walsall boss is remaining calm with just a quarter of the season having been played.
