Re: Why are we never ready on the first day of every season...

Exactly. Unless I'm mistaken it's been:

17/18 Man U
18/19 Liverpool
19/20 Man City
20/21 Chelsea
21/22 Newcastle (won 4-2)
22/23 Man City

Hardly surprising we don't have a good record first game of the season. It's more down to bloody tough fixtures rather than anything else.

I could be wrong but when Sealey came on to play up front I think it was a few games into the season. Doesn’t make it any better really though.

It doesn’t help continually drawing top 4 teams on the opening day
