Fast forward twelve months, we lost the Betway cup to Juventus, we lost away against top four sides Chelsea and Man City but bagged three points at home against AFC Bournemouth leaving us level on points to our tally last season after three games. Oh and we got dumped out of the Europa League by Astra Giurgiu again.
If history is to carry on repeating itself we will go on to win the next three games against Watford, West Brom and Southampton as we did last season against Liverpool, Newcastle and Man City.
Hopefully we won’t be knocked out of the newly renamed English Football League (EFL) cup by Accrington Stanley as we did by Leicester City in the Capital One Cup last season.
