RESOLVING THE LEDGER
This is one outlet's own report from Yahoo Sports — the article as it was filed.
Leicester City midfielder Conor Chaplin has stressed the need for humility as the Foxes prepare for life in League One.
The 29-year-old, speaking to BBC Radio Leicester for the first time since joining the club, said players must respect the division and "run more than other teams" if they are to succeed.
Chaplin joined as a free agent from Ipswich Town on a three-year deal and was Leicester's first signing since their relegation from the Championship was confirmed in April.
This is not Chaplin's first experience of League One. He helped Ipswich win promotion from the division in the 2022-23 season and believes that background will prove valuable.
"I think the expectation is similar, if not probably more here," he said.
"I think you're expected to win every game comfortably, and that's never ever the case. So to manage those expectations within the dressing room and within the football club, I think it's going to be important.
"It's a tough league. There's tough away games, there's tough home games. When you're playing against low blocks, you're playing against good players at this level still as well. You need to respect that.
"You need to be humble enough to know what's coming, but then also to behave like a big football club that we are, and to expect to go into every game to run more than other teams, to fight, to win more duels."
Leicester dropped into the third tier for only the second time in their history last season, a decade on from their Premier League triumph.
On the key attributes needed to succeed in the third tier, Chaplin highlighted consistency.
"I think at any level you need consistency and humbleness," he added.
"When you know you're going to be in a team with good players, some of the best players in the division, you need to be humble enough to work harder than everyone else.
"I'd back our manager to be the best coach in the league as well. So I feel like we have that backing behind us."
Russell Martin was appointed as manager in June on a contract until 2029.
Chaplin said the ultimate aim was promotion back to the Championship, but said he was focused on the day to day work for now rather than end of season targets.
"I think there's obvious things that the club want to achieve. I wouldn't have come here if it was anything other than that," he said.
"I want to be in the division above, definitely. And the sooner we can make that happen, the better for everyone involved at the football club."
