We continue to firmly believe that Dortmund will get back into gear soon. The constant injuries have been the biggest disadvantage and this would be the best chance for the team to also rest and maybe rejuvenate their attitude. With our further assistance, let’s hope for more victories and cohesive result in the following match, at least.
At least that is the hope of most fans and Dortmund have really shown a big change to rise to become one of the contenders in the title race this season. 16 points from ten games played and they are currently in 7th place with the competition to catch the top three, although the points gap is not far for them to catch Leverkusen in fourth place. Injuries will definitely affect the results of the game because they do not have a substitute player who can do the job well like the main players. This is a problem that many teams may face, especially those whose target is to compete for the championship title.
Seeing Dortmund this season is very different from last season which managed to play in the UCL Final, this season Dortmund has really changed maybe because they have a different coach and better than the current coach. Dortmund's current condition is that apart from the many injured players, they also have many players who are not committed to the team, Dortmund always bets on young talent, not on experienced senior players.
Maybe this is Nuri Sahin's task in the future, he also needs to improve his tactics. Because it is very strange at this time how a team like Dortmund can be in 7th position even though they have a talented squad. On the other hand, Dortmund does not have a great goalkeeper, and does not have a strong defense. If all of that can be fixed by Nuri Sahin in the transfer window later by buying players who have potential, I am sure Dortmund will rise, and vice versa.
If in the next match Dortmund wins against Freiburg and Bayern Munich at home, I am sure Dortmund will immediately rise, but in those two matches they lost points again, then Dortmund this season will not be able to compete with the top teams including in the Champions League.
