This prove we are not as good as we think we are. Also this division is very even, any team can beat any other team.

Depends on who “we” are. I think a lot of fans have a realistic view of how good we are. There will always be those who get carried away and expectations are a difficult thing to manage.
That said one loss in the league so far this season is a solid start.

It was the nature of the defeat on Saturday that was most disappointing. We were beaten by an average team in what was a poor game by any standard. We really do need some creativuty in midfield…

Is that solid start like the one you had last season – look what happened then. Time for simmo to dust off the Gary Peters big book of excuses.
