The EU has an incentive to offer a bad deal to set a tough precedent for other EU countries thinking about leaving. The UK 44% of its exports go to the EU, 48% of foreign investment comes from EU. If we lose passporting rights to the EU this accounts for 79% of our GDP.
The EU has an incentive to offer a bad deal, and the UK has an incentive to take it.

You're forgetting its a two way street. For all the EUs posturing, the UK is probably the EUs single biggest customer.
In 2015 (latest figures published) we sold approx £230 Billion of goods and services to EU countries. In that same timeframe, EU countries sold us £290 billion of goods and services.
