To help us out I’d say two things:
1) our opponents are also fairly much uniformly weaker as well. 

2) Kelly Heald and Surman are not necessarily worse. Surman is faster than Devere for starters. Sutton hadn’t made a break through at this time and was used very sparingly. 
Sutton could be a key player for us now, but for injuries. He’s not Cacace, but he’s also a very good attacking FB. He kept McGarry out as the better player.

Also hoping Kosta and Kraev can lift their performances. If you’d asked us in Uffie’s first season about Sotirio, we here wasn’t a lot of trust in him. Kinda like OVH now tbh. 

Pennington/Steinmann is an interesting one as Matti wasn’t charged with many attacking duties. And we haven’t seen Pennington and Conchie operating together. I think we view Matti through tinted glasses,  with Taylor behind and Hooper ahead. 

Unfortunately I’d also say Fenton then was worse than Payne as a RB? Zawada better than Hooper? Very kind. Fenton had up and down form, but was much better going forward and getting back than Payne imo.
