No, BVB has to go back to its roots

BVB is in crisis, no question about it. The last three defeats were three too many. The club has declared Champions League qualification as its goal, but it is miles away from that. However, trying to rebuild the team now would not have the desired effect. It now takes patience from those responsible and, above all, will from the players.

The thing that separates a very good team from an outstanding one is attitude. And that has to be right. Coach Şahin has already recognized this. Every single Dortmunder should question themselves and then attack again. Public arguments must stop. When captain Emre Can argues with Nico Schlotterbeck and goalkeeper Gregor Kobel with Waldemar Anton, it is obvious that everything is currently going wrong. It’s time to pull together. Vanities have never helped. Now it’s about leading BVB into the premier class. The renovation can take place in the summer – by then it will be clear who is giving everything for the club and who would be better off somewhere else. The players can now recommend staying in the summer.

Also very important: Borussia Dortmund has to go back to its roots and rely on young players and develop them. Like Ousmane Dembélé, Jadon Sancho, Erling Haaland and Jude Bellingham. If BVB becomes a top address for such players again, success will return. That’s why those responsible can’t quickly exchange players, but must develop a long-term strategy. Otherwise the crisis will only get worse.
