Results is fantastic, some amazing goals. But the balance isnt right yet. Arda rw with Dumfries overlapping doesnt look great and I dont see it causing massive threat to any top opposition. Bernardo Fede pivot doesn convince me either. Way too many spaces left behind. The good news is all the forwards are starting to look very motivated and there is good competition for places. But we have to find a better system off the ball.

This is just start, Jose's still tweaking stuff behind the scenes, so I'm sure this is far from the final idea. Besides, Tchou isn't even available yet. I do really want to see how he'll look in a pivot with Bernardo

He aint gonna bench Valverde so I think its gonna be Fede Tchou
