Seriously this shows the strength of the league if you ask me, Dortmund have been in quite an Awful performance of late, although their last two matches have been a win but a club like Dortmund shouldn’t be having a 35 point after 24 games, they are supposed to be the other third counterpart contending for the league not to be at 10 positions. They currently lag 6 points behind Mainz who sit at the last champions league spot. Last season they missed out of the top and only got one qualified through the additional slot added to the due to their own heroics to the final, this season they have definitely be excellent at the group stage games and well qualified for the round of 16 but should they continue this their bad performance I think it will eventually get into them even in the champions league. For me they need to sit up in the league too and not relay on the champions league alone
After Kovac's arrival, Dortmund has clearly become better, I have long said that Sahin should be replaced before it is too late, and even now I think that they delayed a little with the change of coach. I agree that Dortmund has started to play better in recent matches, and that most importantly they have become better in attack. The difference to the Champions League zone is 6 points, this is a lot, but I think that Mainz and Frankfurt are still in their reach, so this can be fixed.
