Dortmund is still a big team in the Bundesliga, but we can't include them as a title contender this season after seeing their inconsistent performance, for now they have been eliminated from the DFB pokal and I don't know how good their chances are to qualified in the Champions League zone and stay in the Champions League this season, I think Nuri Sahin must immediately restore their current performance and consistency in order to keep their chances end the season in the Champions League zone at the end of the season later.
I don't include Dortmund as a title contender in the Bundesliga, I have previously said that Dormund is indeed a big and strong club but they are not a club that is too ambitious to become champions but to finish in the top 3 ranking Dortmund still deserves it. For the DFB pokal we can forget about it now because maybe it is not a competition that is so important for Dortmund for the Champions League I believe Dortmund has a great chance to qualify they have only experienced 1 defeat and that was against Real Madrid to face the next opponents I think Dortmund can handle it.
Even Bayern have their downfalls, so it's normal for Dortmund to have this problem.
Entering the season as the top candidate for the Bundesliga title, Dortmund are now even outside the Top 4. Dortmund's chances of winning the championship are generally not high. In previous seasons, Dortmund often competed for the Bundesliga championship until the last round. However, this season they ran out of steam too quickly when the season had not even passed the halfway mark.
I think this is a difficult season for them, losing 3 consecutive matches in 3 different tournaments, Borussia Dortmund players are losing confidence on the field. Coach Nuri Sahin's squad also lost many important names. Instead of dreaming of a Champions League legend, Dortmund should focus on improving their performance in the Bundesliga right now. Otherwise, the worst situation could happen at the end of the season if coach Nuri Sahin continues to play like this.
