Did they win 9 out of their first 10 and score 4 away from home against 3 predicted promotion rivals? ... our manager is setting new records every week in terms of a start to any campaign in any league in the club's history ... fair play though... so is yours!! <whistle>

No idea, i do know that it's not been so easy for them in the PL as you should remember from last season.

Huge difference in this squad to last season ... much younger, hungrier and playing for their futures ... nobody running contracts down or going through the motions ... but the major difference is a manager with a methodology and a game plan that eclipses his own ego ...

not saying that Leicester didnt go through some ****, lord knows my team looks determined to follow yours.
But you cant ignore the other main difference, the HUGE difference in the level of opposition.

Our goalscorers and assists:

Burn, longstaff, almiron, schar ( three there when Howe arrived, the fourth is a local lad). Think assists included Lascelles and Murphy also there when Howe arrived, the man is a genius.

Also think we had 7 NUFC fans in the match day squad, 4 of whom played. Not yoof anymore though I guess.

Oh I'm not mate ... but I'd also happily wager that the current squad would survive in this season's prem given the quality versus the current bottom 5 or 6 ... and they'll only get better as a group ...

The only player that has left who we actually miss is Maddison ... but it's noticeable how much (and quickly) Dewsbury-Hall has / is developing as a result ... albeit a very different player ... and Maresca has overseen a dramatic transformation of Ndidi who is now playing as an attacking midfielder... nobody in the fan base saw that coming ...
