Speaking after the Portsmouth match, Leicester manager Rowett admitted the situation is grave but demanded his players maintain their professional standards. He said: “I can say we’ve got belief. I think we have to show that in our performance and show that in our results. I said to the players, ‘We might have to start hoping we get a little bit of fortune from somewhere else,’ but I don’t like saying that as a manager, I’m not interested in what other teams do, I’m interested in what we do.”
