Borussia Dortmund – The Best ‘Worst’ Team in Europe
A rockstar manager like Jurgen Klopp, plenty of international players and possibly the best fan base in Europe can’t stop Borussia Dortmund from falling to the last place in the German Bundesliga, coming in complete contrast to their success in the Champions League group stage this season.

Bundesliga – Bayern Munich Feel Normal, Dortmund Slightly Worried
It’s not the first time Dortmund have been upset at home, but it’s been a long time since Die Schwarzgelben have found it so difficult to dominate a match they’re hosting or creating an abundance of chances. For Bayern Munich, the Bundesliga didn’t come with a perfect start, but good enough to not be too concerned about anything.

Manchester United – Great Managers Don’t Want to Work There
The sacking of David Moyes and the 24 hours that follow raise an interesting question: Is Manchester United truly a big club or just one that seemed that way with Alex Ferguson in charge, because you wouldn’t expect Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola to be so keen on turning that speculative interest down if it was truly the dream job for them.

Manchester United Sacking David Moyes – Who Comes Next?
There’s no official word out yet, but there seems to be complete agreement between media outlets in England that Manchester United have had enough of David Moyes and will sack him before the end of this week, increasing the speculation over the identity of the team’s next manager: Louis Van Gaal, Diego Simeone, Jurgen Klopp or maybe even Ryan Giggs along with Nicky Butt?

FC Barcelona – Jurgen Klopp is What They Need
It feels like it’s an end of an era for Barcelona. It might be a week of losing three titles one after the other, and Gerardo Martino doesn’t seem to be someone who’ll stay for another year. It’s time for a change, in concept, and maybe even is style. Players, most likely, won’t be coming because of the transfer ban enforced on them. Jurgen Klopp of Borussia Dortmund might be the best thing for them to hire.

Borussia Dortmund – Mats Hummels Epitomizes the Lack of Luck
There’s not much Jurgen Klopp is asking for – just a defender or two back from their injuries. Just when he thought Mats Hummels was coming back from his, it turns out he’ll be out for two more weeks, leaving Dortmund once again with only one player in the back four that originally was planned to start there.

Borussia Dortmund – The Unlucky Season
A torn ACL for Jakub Blaszczykowski is just another blow in a long list of injuries that have crippled Borussia Dortmund this season, ruining their chances of competing for the German Bundesliga title and more than likely leaving them with a very small chance of actually repeating their achievement from last year in the Champions League.

Borussia Dortmund Can’t Beat Anyone Good
The interesting thing about the five losses Borussia Dortmund have picked up so far this season? All of them have come against the rest of the top 6 – Bayern Munich, Leverkusen, Borussia Monchengladbach, Wolfsubrg and now Hertha Berlin.

Borussia Dortmund – Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Shouldn’t Be on the Bench
Their first Champions League match since losing in the 2013 final didn’t turn out so well for Borussia Dortmund, and not just because of the loss – Roman Weidenfeller and Jurgen Klopp got sent off, while a too tactical approach, leaving someone like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on the bench cost them a chance to make an impression early on.

Borussia Dortmund – Marco Reus, Robert Lewandowski & Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Are the Best Show in Europe
It’s still way too early in the season to declare a team as the best in Europe, but Borussia Dortmund, once again, should be mentioned as one of the top sides, with the combination that includes Marco Reus, Robert Lewandowski, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Henrikh Mkhitaryan providing the best football we’ve seen from anyone so far this season.
