Final 3 games for you lot though

Everton Home
Chelsea Away

You better hope you've got a 6 point lead by then because those are banana skins if ever I saw three.

It's all about how Leicester play and the effort your players put in. Every season the run-in involves teams with 'nothing to play for'

Spurs and City are the biggest two dangers. I can't see Arsenal winning it. City have a lot of ground to make up, but are capable of putting a run of wins together. Spurs are on fire, so it will all come down to how Pich manages the squad to handle the extra EL fixtures.

I think Leicester will win it from this position, but I can't see clubs dropping their effort just because they may prefer Leicester to win it.

Pulis wanting you to win it has absolutely nothing to do with how much effort his team will put in. It's an embarrassing notion to being up.

Pressure is all on Leicester, the stars of the season, would be a bit of an anti-climax if you bottle it now.

Well from experience I know that there have been games that meant something and i'd do anything to stop the opposition and there have been games that haven't been as important and ive let players go. This is pretty normal when you're playing for nothing!

It's not a foolish notion to think that in the 90th minute and they're out of position that they wouldn't bust a gut to get back. It's not like many teams can claim their players put in 100% effort for 90 mins in every game

This isn't about teams rolling over or signing a pact to win, it's about all eleven being bothered to make the extra effort to stop us, only needs one not to be bothered to chase back.

In your opinion, if anything they are three games I'm more confident of winning. They won't park the bus and will play to our strength so why banana skins? Tonight is a banana skin!

Are you for real? Arsenals players bottle it every season because they don't have the mentality

You won't win shiitt with quality alone because quality doesn't win games. Look at what happened at OT, bottled it because they can't handle pressure. What did we do? Not panic that time was running out and just kept going because of our mentality. We won, Arsenal lost so you keep your quality and I'll have players with bottle!

And you of all people, being a Chelsea fan say that? What was going on with everyone but Willian putting the effort in which ultimately lead to Mourinho getting sacked?

Players don't give 100% in every match and that's a fact!!

And it wasn't five aside, Leicester youth team and semi-pro!

Eh, I just get what this mentality stuff is? How do you know which team has the best mentality?

posted on 1/3/16

Haha, yeah Mourinho got sacked because he pizzed the players off. I still think most teams will care about their own league position over Leicester winning the title though.

Oh my god, it's not just maths you don't get is it, it's general concepts you struggle with too.

Let me spell it out for you!! Mentality has absolutely nothing to do with quality, absolutely zero. I might have a stronger mentality than a professional footballer, as might you or anyone else, we're talking about people here and how different people handle pressure. How good they are at football has absolutely no relevance!

Personally I thrive on it. I think ive missed two penalties in my whole life and never in a shoot out or when it's meant something, only when I'm nonchalant because ive already scored or we've been winning. I also thrive off getting stick off opposition fans and players, it gives me a boost.

Some people can't take penalties at all because they can't handle the pressure and some players go into a shell when they get stick, again has nothing to do with quality!

Hope that's clear enough 👍

I did say "hope"

But this is not impossible. In fact a draw in the NLD is very probable

Well how do you know Leicester have such good mentality? Why can't Spurs or Arsenal have good mentality too?

Alright let's see what this team has actually done to show they have a strong mentality.

Firstly they were all massively disappointed to lose in the play offs to Watford in the way that we did. It could have knocked them for six knowing they had another season in the Championship but that galvanised them and they went onto win the league in style. They proved they can handle the pressure of winning a league. Six of them play every week now.

Last season we were bottom for 140 days and we found ourselves in a position where all of a sudden we needed to win all our games and we won six on the bounce and stayed up comfortably in the end. That was real pressure, chasing a league title is nothing in comparison to PL survival. Survival was the only option whereas it doesn't matter what happens now.

We have also won more points from losing positions than any other team in the league and have come back from 2-0 down three times, once to win 3-2. We have handled the pressure of being top for most of the season so I think we have more than enough credentials because neither Spurs nor Arsenal have done that!
