Declan Rice reckons the performance at Leicester City was among the best of the season and hopes it forms the platform for a flying finish to the campaign.
Speaking on the official site he said: “I would say that’s one of the best performances we’ve put up this season. We knew before the game that it was crucial that we got three points.
“A point maybe would have been enough, but three points were the aim and I’ve never seen us so focused in the dressing room before the game and so ready to go out there and put in a performance.
“We’re focusing now on Man United and we want to go out and win that and we want to win the Everton game as well and try to finish as high as possible in the table.”
“What a goal by Nobes! He was outstanding all day, as well. He’s a proper captain and led by example.”
Rice joined the supporters and his teammates at the end and said: “When you’ve got fans like that, who travel home and away and pay lots of money, when we put on a performance like that, it means they can go home happy.
“My brother was in there and he and they didn’t stop singing, so a massive ‘Thank you’ to the fans, because they’ve been excellent for us all season and we really do appreciate that.”
