Bit of Groundhog Day there isn’t there

We also had the best stats against Liverpool of any attacking team for ages when we lost to them 4-1 away.

I have no worries about us going forward this season. We play some lovely stuff.

It will all gone down to whether we can stop teams repeatedly scoring against us on the counter, from defensive errors and from set pieces.
