Not feeling confident at all about this one... Maybe the last game for LF? Again not much rotation except for the injuries... Lineup: Hitz Piszczek Weigl Hummels Guerreiro Witsel Delaney Sancho Reus Hackimi Gotze
Schalke doing to us what we should be doing to teams.... pressing up and putting pressure on teams back line... we are an embarassment under Favre
Crossbar from a corner... Almost down by one at the 28 minutes... We don't look good at all, but what's new? 6-2 the shots so far.
Second post from Schalke... at the 33rd. Seems like a question of time now. We got no possession at all.
Hitz saves a 1 on 1. Ref ruled it offside in the end but I'm not sure VAR would have overturned a goal. But you just have to do better to not let them create such a chance.
our poor form continues... however I blame the board as much as coaching.. we were stupid to not secure a second striker for alcacer... idiotic at best.
Never against Schalke . But we are starting to get situations in front of their goal. Everything is possible but for most of the match, a draw looked like the best we could hope for.
Favre just has no idea what he wants to do... Favre should have brought on Brandt much sooner.. He just has no idea how to coach this team. I would have made subs at the halftime.
Brandt had a very poor midweek game but generally Reus, Hazard and Brandt fit well together. They also created the last chance that with a little bit more luck, gets to Reus which could have decided the game. Before that, only Sancho had chances. But we didn't look good for 90% of the match. From time to time, the individual quality came through but it was a disappointing display. Is playing physical and running much really all you need to do against us? We rather looked like a midtable team against a dominating team.
We survived the Derby with a draw... So Better result then expected I guess. LF may survive is poor result a bit more though.
Lol Schalke goalie Nübel (paraphrasing): Dortmund had trouble creating chances because they had no one in the box or no one who wanted to go into the box. Maybe an option for an assistant coach for Favre? Commentator mentioned it's kind fo strange when an opposing player makes that analysis for you but everyone sees that problem.
