The 52-year-old said that it also boils down to how strong the players are, mentally, from this point on, but was quick to point out that they shouldn’t look to put pressure on themselves. “Mentality is important because now is the moment where everything is decided – for relegation, the Champions League places and the title.
“I think people are comfortable. I look at the players and see people who are relaxed to play these last two months – to fight for the title is the best motivation you can have in the game,” Mourinho said.
“You can do amazingly well for seven, eight, nine months, but the moment of truth always arrives and the moment of truth for us is get the wins we need to be champions. So to be mentally strong but, at the same time, be comfortable with the situation is very important,” he added.
The remaining eight games include crunch fixtures against Manchester United at home on April 18th, then a trip to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal on April 26th and also a game against Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on May 10th, among others.
