In the new match week, we are going to start with the Dortmund vs Hoffenheim game.
Dortmund had a really good start against Frankfurt with a 5-2 score. But they surprised everyone by losing to Freiburg 2-1. Haaland can't save the team all the time. They should make a much bigger effort as a team. Otherwise, they won't be able to fight for the title again. When it comes to Hoffenheim, they had a little better start. They demolished Augsburg 4-0 and drew with Union Berlin 2-2. When it comes to the head-to-heads, Dortmund couldn't beat them home for 3 games. This means Hoffenheim have a psychological advantage. But still, I believe in Dortmund to win this game as long as they have a good teamplay.
I do not get why people think that "haaland can't save them all by himself" is a valid talking point for dortmund. I do agree that Haaland is a great and amazing striker and he is by far the best player on that team, he would be the best player on most teams aside from maybe 3-5 teams in the world, dude is a wonderful player. However let's not act as if rest of the squad is a second division level team, even without Haaland that team is a top table team, sure maybe not top three, but top half of the league for sure, in the top 10 without a doubt, with addition of Haaland they become "fight for a european cup entrance ticket" team and that is a great addition.
I am quite sad to see almost everyone believes that Dortmund is what it is only thanks to Haaland and nobody else, which means that if he leaves the club than the club will be fighting for being at top half, which I do not think is true, they will be 6th, 7th easily even without him.
