Strawberry Overwintering

in Fruit & veg
Do I need to cut back leaves to two inches when strawberries are in containers, too?
I read a long article which suggested this for ground SBs but didn't say to prune or not in containers, only to wrap in fleece.

Provided the containers are a suitable size and your plants are healthy, there is no need to either prune or fleece. Removing dead leaves can be done throughout the season.
