Claudius but to this point I think it's a mistake that what these players achieved last season with a 1 season sample size is automatically a level they can perform at consistently. That was outstanding but we historically outperformed last year. Like the 50 point half season that's great but is that the norm you can't really assess until you see more data.
So in relation to the players attacking form maybe there is some variance but even if that is the case maybe some or all of their consistent levels will be down on last year. The more we struggle this season the increased likelihood that is the possible explanation.
Whereas lots of the analysis seems to take last season as the absolute truth. They will always deliver those numbers so that will return but we don't know that's the case.
