Then we draw there [in the league], were really good for a long spell and just drew it \u2013 that\u2019s now not the reason for today, it\u2019s a few weeks back anyway, but you asked about the last few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, the problems we had in the United games were completely different to the things we had today.
