'Didn't spot Aleks on the OS back in the saddle pics, or Mangala and Otamendi for that matter.

I am however really excited about our forward line, with or without Sanchez, and I think we will score even more next year. Perhaps this is Peps vision, to simply not let the opposition have much of the ball and many chances and to take our own. If Bravo had saved just half the shots he faced and if we had put away a few more chances we'd have challenged Chelsea. I dont recall many games where the opposition had many chances so all in all we did a lot of things right last season. And that's without taking into consideration our fucking over by the officials.

Football can be a simple game. Perhaos we just need a tweak or two rather than wholesale changes

If we don't land our targets we need a new DOF.
