But I can completely understand and empathise with some of our fans who feel negatively about the run-in, and are fed up of the happy clapper brigade spouting, "it's still in our hands", however true it may be.
I can envisage this being similar to the League Cup game against Liverpool. i.e. take a shock early lead, before giving the ball away in our own half a gazillion times and losing 3-1. But at least we'll be able to say we lost playing 'our way'.
Hate to be that guy, but he was nowhere near. He had 6 assists that season - tied for 20th in the PL. Ozil led the league with 19 assists. Riyad made the top ten with 11 assists. Drinkwater had 7 assists. Vardy also had 6.
Teammates are equals. One doesn't have power over the other. It becomes far murkier when a manager has a relationship with one of the players. The player may have felt pressured into the relationship for the sake of their career. That would be an abuse of power and would need to be investigated.
Your example of managers managing family members isn't quite the same. There may be some nepotism involved. But you can't choose who you are related to.
