Out in the Champions League, out in the DFB Cup, out in the Europa League and in the league again eight points behind series champions Bayern Munich. “If we had reached the next round somewhere, we would talk differently”said Rose. Since this did not succeed, tough weeks are ahead of BVB.
Kehl: No “keep it up”
Captain Marco Reus and his colleagues follow the thrilling knockout games in the cup competitions in front of the television. The renewed Champions League qualification is almost certain with a ten-point lead in fifth place, but with ten games left it shouldn’t be enough.
But how nice will the season finale be without the prospect of a title? For BVB, the main thing is to force the upheaval. The future sports director Sebastian Kehl had already announced after the European Cup at Glasgow Rangers that there was a “Keep it up” won’t give.
Erling Haaland’s departure is likely to be announced in the coming weeks. But who will leave the black and yellow? What role should Marco Reus and Mats Hummels play in the future? And which newcomers besides Niklas Süle should make BVB ready for the title?
Rose wants”maximum” get out
Those responsible have to answer many questions, including those about Rose’s future. Edin Terzic, who led BVB to the DFB Cup victory last year, is extremely popular with the fans.
The 50 points after 24 games in the league are a decent record – but nothing more. The Dortmunders enraptured their fans far too rarely with their raid-like football. This is also due to the numerous injuries. “We’re Trying Now”Rose emphasized before his quick exit, “getting the maximum out of the season”.
