City know victory over former boss Gareth Taylor’s Reds in Sunday’s 12:00 (UK) clash would help them take a huge step towards the WSL title as we look to fend off the challenge of chasers Arsenal.
Jeglertz is very aware of the magnitude of the game, no doubt played out in front of a vociferous and expectant Joie Stadium crowd.
But the boss insists focusing on performance holds the key to success.
“There’s quite a lot of teams in the world that emotions affect performances and we talked a lot that no matter what emotions or pressure you have, you can still follow the gameplan and do the things you are good at,” he told media at his pre-match press conference.
“That has to be the thing that you’re also coming back to.
“That is my job to spread the calmness and not push the players in the wrong direction. We all have a big role in that.
“The key thing for us is to be able to do all the things we are good at no matter the pressure. We can always do the things we agreed beforehand.
“All the games here have been amazing with spectators and atmosphere.
“We have the confidence that we are very good at this stadium but also enjoy the moment a little bit.
“How this league ends is up to us. We shouldn’t have any regrets when we leave the field to look in the mirror and know we have done everything we can to win this game.
“Regardless of the pressure, we need to stick to what we have agreed on.”
