Leicester City 'not feeling any pressure'

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Leicester City are "not feeling any pressure" as their extraordinary season shows no sign of relenting according to Rich Dean, a mental conditioning coach. Claudio Ranieri's side outclassed Manchester City at the Etihad at the weekend and are now five points clear at the Premier League summit. Dean, who works with Premier League footballers, said of their 3-1 win: "They played with such purpose and brightness on Saturday. They have a blueprint for a way they play. I don鈥檛 see any cracks at the moment". So how are they managing to avoid being caught up in the enormity of their situation? Dean says: "Leicester鈥檚 confidence and self-belief comes from a position of clarity. Their roles are really well defined by the coaching staff. Clear expectations equals a clear method and a higher level of confidence about your performance鈥�. This clip is originally from 5 live breakfast on Monday 8th February 2016.
