    I really hope they sell Sancho during the winter window. :(

    With our boy or. without, they are still fun to watch. Not sure if Goetze would have given that pass to CP.

    Yeah, and the question I'm asking is Why? I can't think of the last time he's gotten a gift like that, although Gotze's pass was as bad as it could be and for that to still be a goal

    This is the best game i've seen Dahoud play in a Dortmund shirt.

    What I want to see is Puli on with Sancho, Reus, and Paco

    Sancho now has 12 combined goals and assists across all competitions in 14 appearances. Pulisic, last year, got 12 combined across 42 appearances.

    Pulisic has got 4 combined so far this season.

    He's no longer the brightest young talent at his club. The numbers really don't lie. In a way, it's good, because he's being pushed and being shown up in the area he needs to improve the most.

    With that goal, Sancho is at 1/3 goals per games(4 goals in 12) which is slightly ahead of Pulisic. CP is 1/4(2 goals in 8).

    Exciting match so far. Back and forth with lots of speed and direct play.

    But Sancho has played in 4 more games. Thats 50% more. Granted the minutes are about the same, but the game situations have been incredibly different. Regardless, Sancho 4 in 12, Pulisic 2 in 8.

    1 - 1 HT. Kalou scores off a Dahoud mistake.

    I like Sancho.

    Pulisic hasn't really found his rhythm yet this season with two injury layoffs.

    Noone seems to have mentioned that Alcacer is not starting or playing. He is doing pretty good. Injury? I think the coach is becoming a tinkerer. Hakimi on the left and no proven goal scorer. Not to mention CP.

    Sancho is awesome. His second goal proves it.

    I think this is good for Puli. Hopefully he rises to meet the challenge.

    This hasn't been mentioned, but is anyone else thinking CP could play Gotze's current role better than him? I feel like he's done well in his role but nothing CP couldn't do.

    Man, no idea why the defender chose to foul him in the box. He had help.
