They introduced Aller, they took away the defenders of the German national team.

They can change their favorite scheme

Marco Rose and Edin Terzic love the 4-2-3-1 model, but the Borussia D roster allows them to play differently. Akanji, Zagadu and Can came out together in a trio, the left wing can be completely closed not only by Guerreira with Schultz, but also by Thorgan Hazard – the Belgian also had such an experience. Meunier and Wolf were seen on the right and Can’s versatility allowed the veteran to move from midfield to defense and back.

The 4-2-3-1 model has an advantage: you can put two rookie forwards at the same time and Marco Reus, but in this case Bellingham and his partner in the support zone, where Axel Witsel will no longer be, left for Spain, has need to face harder work. Given that the young Englishman has phenomenal talent, one of the main hopes of world football at the moment, Terzic needs to think well.

The retirement of Marco Rose, who was preparing to replace Haaland and conceded the game with a “diamond” in the middle, is a bit surprising. Watzke and Zork are not easy guys, they have been in the club for a long time, but this spring it was decided to say goodbye to Michael. The sporting director of Borussia D, who had been at the club for 44 years as a player and manager, retired and was replaced by well-known Sebastian Kehl, former team captain and assistant to Zork.

In Dortmund they fear that, if new ideas are not added, they will not be able to win the Bundesliga for another ten years, and this affects the financial component, so important for Borussia D, where they still remember what the club was like on the brink of bankruptcy. The decision to bring the young Terzic back is risky, but logical, because the team is waiting for a big reshuffle, and now a young sporting director is at the helm, Kelu is only forty-two years old and Zork will turn sixty at the end of the summer.

Defense of national team players strengthened

Niklas Süle is a Bayern free agent, but signing a contract with him cost him decent money. Freiburg’s Nico Schlotterbeck cost € 20 million and is also a German defender. The young dyed blond can play in the center and on the left in defense, he appeared in the club in the support zone, but Dortmund need in front of the nose of the promising Swiss Gregor Kobel, who in the first season did not play very well at the new club, if we talk about the percentage of shots saved.

The defense of Borussia D conceded 52 goals, this is a terrible result: ninth in the Bundesliga. And we cannot speak of injustice or accident. We made fifteen more defensive mistakes than Bayern and Leipzig because we allowed our opponents to create quality chances. The male has made 71 saves, but when the goalkeeper of one of the favorites reaches 105 shots on goal, he has little chance to perform like Neuer, who has every third game – “cookie”. And keep in mind that Bayern’s defense has also received fair criticism.

Will Süle and Schlotterbeck make a difference? But this is not a fact, since he is not an analogue of the young Hummels and Boateng of the Bayern days. But Akanji and Zagadu did not satisfy Rosa with their actions, Hummels needed more reliable partners. Borussia D defense is unlikely to become reliable mainly due to the style of play: they take risks, they tried to work high (it wasn’t always possible). But the instability may go away with time, as the team lost 9 games in the Bundesliga last season, although they completely refused to sign up for world matches.

Invited born snipers

Borussia Dortmund often have great newcomers. But at the same time, Aller and Adeyemi understand why they were signed at the same time. A little doubt about the class. However, Aller has come a long way from underrated striker to man who broke Haaland’s record of scoring 10 goals in his first six Champions League games (the Norwegian spent the most per game). And Karim Adeyemi is on the list of doubts for the same reason that all German strikers after Klose.

Born in Munich, missed at Bayern, he revealed himself in Salzburg. But performance in Austria guarantees nothing, not all accelerators, like Holland. The German striker awaits his debut in the Bundesliga, where he had never played before him. And although there is talk of a striker that Flick has called up for matches for the German national team, Adeyemi at twenty will play badly from time to time. But Borussia D has a lot of attacking players.

At the center of the attack will play Aller, Adeyemi and Mukoko, even if let’s not forget the Dutch Malen. Hazard, Royce, Brandt, Bellingham, Reina, Wolf and Malen himself are under the striker. Things are a little worse in the center, where there isn’t enough of a guy like Delaney. The Dane is in Seville, and now the support zone in Dortmund is too predictable for rivals, albeit creative. Dahood, Can, Bellingham, and even Brandt, who shone there, are not purebred destroyers. Let’s take a look at the newcomer from the Turkish national team – Ozcan, but Salih in Cologne not only destroyed.

There may be problems due to rotation

Edin Terzic needs to clearly define not so much the scheme – tactically one can imagine a variable Borussia D, because the Champions League matches are approaching, it will be a difficult season for Bayern if the loss of Lewandowski proves more painful than expected. A young manager must clearly explain his schedule for the season to each player. At the moment Borussia D has too many players, it also happens, but there are problematic positions.

And globally, the woes of past players from Borussia D are rarely confirmed by the advances granted to them. So far, Ousmane Dembele is remembered for being late and temperamental at Barcelona, ​​and not for solid play. Sancho has not lived up to expectations at Manchester United so far and Pulisic is not the leader of the new Chelsea. Aubameyang at Arsenal allowed himself too much off the pitch, and Gotze is a symbol of how bad luck can be, because Mario, author of the winning goal in the final world Cuphe didn’t move to Liverpool, he didn’t become a superstar.

But he, like Royce, has been hampered by health problems and sometimes Borussia D’s talent just goes sour, like Julian Weigl. Seriously, it looked like the boy would follow in Kimmich and Kroos’ footsteps, and now he’s twenty-six and playing in Portugal. This conversation doesn’t mean Haaland won’t be successful at Manchester City, even if we remember his knee and ligament problems. But that Marco Reus, Guerreiro and Brandt are unlucky guys.

Minor injuries, insulting defeats, euphemism, which both the adult Thorgan Azar and yesterday’s pupil Giovanni Reina have. So it turns out that Borussia D, who can play whatever he wants with the current squad, is associated with both Haaland, who he shot, and Schultz, who got lost. But they will be stronger, especially if Kehl and Watzke bring the full backs before the end of the summer, because it is with the sides that concerns are linked, since Meunier and Guerreiro cannot always find a way out of the infirmary. , and if Aller and Adeyemi do not play worse than in Amsterdam and Salzburg, then Borussia D will become stronger.

In last year’s odd variant – risky Norwegian Haaland only went to base in two-thirds of Bundesliga games, Bayern were ahead of the “bumblebees” by eight points. Now the name contender is stronger, but the champion without Lewandowski has yet to be tested.
