agree - and it's been said, cos it was noticed....last seasons PL was a pox - a lot of confusion and disruption within many of the teams...until was sorted, they found their feet whatever - being why it got harder for us in the second half of the season, when they picked up...but luckily we'd gained enough points to get the seventh - mostly thanks to only 39 conceded goals !...so obvious to all I think - that we weren't going to have such an easy run of of it this time around, being why it was so important for us to strengthen, especially up front...but that'd be known at Burnley, after all, it isn't rocket science.
