And we have different players than we had last season.This “cherry picking” of runs always happens. It’s natural to do so. If we are playing well and getting good results, we go back to the first good result and form opinion from that. Same is true for a bad run. No issue with it whatsoever.
However, I do think straddling two seasons to get this “bad run” isn’t helpful, especially considering the fixtures we had at the end of last season and the fact we have added new players to the squad since then.
