Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho believes it is the focus that is within the squad that sets them apart from others in the Premier League.
Despite starting the season as joint-favorites to win it, City are shocking everyone with the level of domination they have shown all season.
And Fernandinho believes the mentality within the squad is a big reason for the success.
"Probably that's our uniqueness; we don't listen to the buzz around us," said the Brazilian midfielder. "We know the definitions are coming over the next three or four months. But we keep thinking game by game and that's important.
"We're not trying to reach further than is possible. That's a virtue we've got. We have an incredible preparation for each game. The focus is 100 per cent.
"We can't deny that our confidence is really high when you look at our results and the way we've been playing and scoring.
"The team is getting more and more confident and that's the way to get our goals; go through in Champions League, keep our position in the Premier League and try to get the title as soon as possible, plus our chances in the two competitions."
