I don't remember a team that had a season as surprising as Borussia Dortmund. Maybe Stuttgart may be providing this in a positive sense because they are better than expected, but in a negative sense I think one of the biggest surprises belongs to them. Borussia Dortmund are now far away from their goal of winning the league title. For the top four, they will have to beat Leipzig. If they play worse in a few games, I'm almost sure we won't see them in the UCL next year.

That is the biggest worry for Dortmund fans this season, that their beloved club is losing the potential to appear in the UCL next season. Regardless of their luck this season in getting through the UCL group phase, in the Bundesliga they should also be able to achieve the same good balance. A situation that is rarely experienced by Dortmund, because usually they appear consistent and compete closely in the hunt for trophies with Bayern Munchen, we can take an example like last season. Stuttgart and Leipzig will continue to try to assert their position in the top four, because they also want to experience the atmosphere of the UCL next season.

Dortmund have to do something, I mean looking for a solution in the transfer window if they want to appear consistently, using the existing players alone, which in my opinion is not enough to compete in the second half of the season. I think they don't really understand that this season Bundesliga competition is very different from previous seasons, if they hope something good will come without trying for it, then they will sleep for a long time this season just dreaming.

We've always competed with Bayern, but this season feels different. The team's inconsistency worries me, especially with Bundesliga competition heating up. We lost key players and made it through the UCL group stage, but domestic performance matters. I think our UCL hopes for next season are in risk if we dont start scoring soon, especially in these "easier" games. Its about adjusting and strengthening, not just staying up.

Dortmund has managed and used players well in the past, but this season is a different challenge. The transfer market requires proactive, even aggressive, board and coach action. We need new players to energize the team. If we keep things the same, we may struggle more next season. In this crucial moment, we must move decisively.
