Yes because that's how football works. "We scored 6 goals against you over 2 games, your team and defence is shit".
Look past the fact they finished 8th and their players have been sold so far for a grand total of £90m(ish) by people with far more football knowledge than you or I.
Fantastic logic Gibbsy.

5 goals. Started 12. Played 18 last season. That's ok, but not anything to shout about in the French League. He scored against:
Lorient - 8th
Sochaux - 18th (relegated)
Evian - 14th
Monaco - 2nd
Valenciennes - 19th (relegated)
Don't get me wrong, you can only play what's in front of you, but he's hardly lit a fairly average league up.
£10m just seems like a lot of money for an unproven player coming from that level. Chamakh and Giroud had very good records in that league. I wouldn't touch either of them now. Of course there are players that have been successful, but Origi just doesn't look like he "has it" - if that makes any sense!
The bloke tweeted that his 6 years at the club had been destroyed in 1 hour because he didn't get his way. Why would he be any more committed to us than them? If we bought him and next summer Liverpool bid for him, he'd do the same.
