Naruto knows exactly what he wants
Exactly, and there has been absolutely ZERO indication that his feelings for Sakura have changed since #3.
This is what I don't get about people fearing the pairing outcome. In terms of the Narutoverse timeline, it was only minutes ago that Naruto told his father that Sakura was "more or less" his girlfriend.
Nothing Sakura said to Sasuke in #693 was anything new, or anything Naruto didn't already know. He knew how she felt about Sasuke during her confession in the Land of Iron; that's why he didn't accept it at face value. But Naruto's admission to Minato proves that DESPITE Sakura's confused feelings, Naruto considers her his potential girlfriend.
Why? Because Sai made Naruto see and understand that Sakura chose him over Sasuke, and that despite how she has felt about Sasuke she loves Naruto too, and was "only thinking of him." Naruto knows he has a chance with her, especially once he succeeds in turning Sasuke around.
Naruto's plan has been the same all along. He has wanted to be acknowledged by Sasuke as an equal -- we just saw that again in the last chapter -- and once he was Sasuke's equal he could stand before Sakura as worthy boyfriend material.
From everything we've seen in the manga so far, Naruto appears to be right on track. I will be very surprised if we don't see him confess or make some kind of obvious declaration of his intentions with Sakura in these final two chapters.
