Chelsea Manager Jose Mourinho told a news conference on Tuesday that his players have to try harder and feel the pressure to win the English Premier League this season.
"There are things in the job that are not easy, and one of those things is to make the pressure of fighting for the title become something natural, something the players accept in a positive way," Mourinho told.
"Here we have some people that have won the title before but not for quite a long time, and when you don't win it for quite a long time you forget it. We have other people that have played in clubs that are not used to fighting for titles, it is just about doing fantastically today and not worrying about tomorrow or any big responsibilities." Portuguese added.
"You have to learn how to live with the pressure of trying to be top of the league, how to fight until the last moment, knowing that every detail of every game can make a difference in the end. It's a process, not something you do with a click. There is a lot to play for in December and January, we will see if one of the top six opens a real gap, we can't speak about favorites but all the six teams are title contenders." he said.
