    Dortmund aren't a club that promotes prospects at any position, so definitely not strikers.

    they used to promote now in recent times like vast vast majority of clubs they buy buy buy instead. Seriously why promote when you can just buy some cheap players who have pro/1st division experience and clubs want results now not later. Isak is not a club promotion or prospect they bought him from Sweden for like $8ishM (cheap change for a club like Dortmund) but never used him, lol. Even that Spanish 00-Gomez who they are like he's one of the most rated players of his age group in Europe (yeah so rated that he had mediocre numbers in RL and tons of players did better than him and are a lot less rated) was loaned out this season to Spanish 2nd division. That other Spaniard and Balerdi are currently playing RL, lol.

    I think any striker promotion will end up being Moukoko in like 2-3 years min.

    so far this season, Pulisic and Joelinton's moves to EPL have been meh while Haller seems to have better start.

    Although I don't expect many of them to sustain their current positioning, I do find it interesting to see a fairly competitive landscape at the top of the table to begin the season.

    Wolfsburg leap to 2nd place after beating Union today. Even Frankfurt could leap ahead of Dortmund if they can win vs Werder Bremen today.

    Andre Silva scored in his 3rd consecutive match. But Frankfurt concede a penalty near the end to finish in a 2-2 draw vs Bremen.

    if this is true man these Frenchies are real users.


    he's only played 1 season in Germany than this Summer he got injured and still not fit yet. So instead of helping struggling Mainz he wants to jumps ship mid-season, LMAO.

    wonder what it says when a player flops hard at HSV but excels elsewhere?

    The list is growing by the year....
    The Korean Hwang was a massive flop last season on loan in 2BL
    2 goals and 2 assists in 20 games

    this season in Austria.
    5 goals and 6 assists in 8 games in Austrian Bundesliga
    2 goals and 3 assists in 2 CL game, picking up a goal and assist vs Liverpool in that 4-3 loss.
    1 assist in 1 game in Cup

    but productive in every game this season but 2.
    HSV seems like a toxic club for good amount of players, players seem to get stiffened.

    or more interesting is when one sees tons of 1BL players who left in Summer flop hard in non 1BL TOP leagues......

    lol Bayern and Dortmund.
    Niko Kovač is losing his biggest supporter in Uli Hoeneß on 15 November and Rummenigge will be in charge. KHR has been critical of Kovač since last season and if the bad results and performances continue, the club has a serious alternative: Ralf Rangnick [@cfbayern, SportBild]

    The name of Rangnick has already been discussed internally before last season's Pokal final with recommendation from Rummenigge. Uli Hoeneß however stopped the discussion back then & supported Kovač. Rangnick would be interested in taking charge at Bayern

    while Dortmund.
    José #Mourinho is a candidate to succeed Lucien #Favre if the head coach doesn't get #BVB back on track. However, #Watzke and #Zorc prefer to avoid a change of coaches during the season. Mourinho is ready to take over a new club, according to the report.

    Florian #Kohfeldt and Roger #Schmidt are not in the thoughts of the Borussia Dortmund bosses.

    Good comeback win for Leipzig v Zenit, Werner subbed at ht. Nice goals from Austrian duo Laimer and Sabitzer.

    Big game for Dortmund in Milan tonight, 4 points from the double header v Inter and qualification should be doable.

    Juve and Inter are stronger clubs than Leverkusen and Dortmund so those results aren't too surprising.

    Gladbach with a last minute goal to finish with a draw against Roma

    Wolfsburg choked the ending and let Gent score an equalizer at the end

    Good win for Frankfurt though over Liege

    Juve are stronger then all BL clubs, but Inter are not a stronger club then Dortmund at this point imo. The difference is they have Conte, whereas Dortmund have Favre.

    Given the amount of money invested and quality of player at their disposal Dortmund have the ability to target the BL title and CL 1/4 finals this season, however with Favre's mid table mindset they will achieve neither.

    Leverkusen are going to be lucky to get any points at all at this rate. Which is embarrassing.

    In the EL it looks pretty good for Wolfsburg and Frankfurt, I think both have a good chance to progress. Two last minute equalisers away from home have given Gladbach some hope, if they can win at home v Roma they are right back in contention to qualify.

    They need a new direction, meaning a change of coach

    Lucien Favre is what's wrong with Dortmund. Mid-table manager who has never won a league title in 20+ years and has been a resounding failure in European tournaments. I have no idea why anyone rates him at all, and local fans were spewing nonsense like "we're going to win the treble" when he was first hired. Idiots.

    Burki and Handanovic are pretty even, and that's with Inter's keeper being older too

    I'd say Inter's defence of Skriniar, Godin and De Vrij to be better than Dortmund's Hummels, Weigl, and Akanji

    Midfield is honestly pretty even between the two selections who played

    Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez are two forwards that Dortmund wished they had. When Reus doesn't play, they just aren't that good and especially not at this level.

    Dortmund continue to look so weak without a striker. Can't score in the Derby against Schalke

    not surprising because false 9 is dumb as hell, a player can be deployed there but doesn't mean they got the striker package/mentality in them.
