Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel says he felt more pressure playing in the Football League than challenging for the Premier League title.
After coming through the youth ranks at Manchester City, Schmeichel went out on loan to League Two sides Darlington and Bury in 2006.
Now sitting atop the Premier League standings with Leicester, Schmeichel insists he is not feeling the heat.
"There is no pressure now. Those games [in the Football League] where absolutely everything is on the line, that's proper pressure," he said.
"Relegation with Bury was on the line at Notts County. That would have meant Bury going into non-league and that would have been catastrophic.
"When you go out on loan it's not the glitz and glamour, there's nowhere near the amount of money there is at the top level.
"People's livelihoods are on the line, mortgages and families. You are making decisions which can affect people."
