A season ending with a cup win and likely progression in the ACLE put a shine on a poor end to the domestic campaign. Injuries played their part in the 2nd half of the season and their good start put them in a good enough position to finish in the top half. All in all a decent campaign for Park Tae-ha in his first year in charge. Not much change with the club renewing a number of regulars' contracts and welcoming the injured back. Juninho is a good addition and will add flair to the attack. Lots to build on from last season and in a good position to do so. Top half finish is almost a given and a title challenge could be on the cards as well. The team are well set up defensively and have good depth in attacking areas. Some players really improved last year. Conceded the most goals from set pieces last season. Defensive depth isn't strong and busy start to the seeason in the ACLE could stretch that.

Target


Title challenge is what I would expect and a run into the late stages of the ACLE. Defending the cup for the third time as well
