"Don't come to watch the game, it's for the sake of the club and the fans", said Jose, who hailed the recent trophy haul as "amazing".

The second leg at the Stadio Olimpico is a winner-takes-all battle after the first leg at the King Power Stadium ended in a draw.

The FA Cup and Community Shield trophies will be picked up in 2021, along with the 2016 Premier League title, and Jose was full of praise for the Foxes and their manager.

Roma manager Jose Mourinho jokes that he will keep the gift he got for Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers after the Northern Irishman said he would be happy with a simple cup of tea.

Brendan doesn't surprise me. People forget what he did with less resources. He did a great job. People forget about the Scottish titles because they don't focus on them.

It is a perfect feat for them to win the FA Cup, the Community Shield and the way they played. Very good. I hope tomorrow is for us and not for them.

Brendan Rodgers has told his players to keep their fairytale story going and add another trophy to their collection.

This is our biggest game of the season, Rodgers said. We have shown that we can complete the task. You have to accept that.

We have been trying to create a winning mentality and for some players it will be hard to adapt. You want the players to learn from these experiences.

It is something they are hungry for and we are all hungry to succeed. This is a new chapter in the story. The main goal is to keep the story going, like we did in the FA Cup.

Brendan Rodgers says the city of Leicester is achieving success across multiple sports - and he hopes to continue that trend in the Europa Conference League.

We wanted to be the winners for the first time and we wanted that to be an objective in this competition as well. This is a new chapter in our history.

As he leads them into the Stadio Olimpico, the Foxes captain wants to add to his collection of silverware.

He said that every competition you can win is important. You do it for the occasions.

Winning trophies is what it is about. Fans and players look back on those moments when you have to lift a trophy.

The club's infrastructure is in place to succeed. If we reach the final, we will have a sustained success over a period of time in terms of finals reached and trophies won.

To the comments made by Schmeichel about winning a trophy being better than fourth place, it means more than three titles with either Manchester United or Chelsea. He should be happy that he won that title.

He wants to win. It is the only way that can help the club reach European competition next season.
