Asked what more the team needed to do, he said: “More belief, more focus. It seems like they are a bit tense at the minute so just go out there like you started the season. Relax and enjoy it and play the football you know you can play and it’ll come.

“Grind and dig deep lads. It’s been a tiring season already. They’ve given a lot, but 12 games to go. This is it - it’s 12 cup finals. They can become legends by taking us back to where we belong. We’ve had some hard painful year. Be a hero, give it all for 90 minutes, and then the next 90 minutes and then next 90 minutes and hopefully we’ll be back there.”
