For all the study and analysis of Real and how they so consistently manage to win the CL and how that mentality as a club contributes towards that, Dortmund seriously need to be studied for the opposite reason.
That collapse last season in the league was absolutely woeful and the door was open again tonight, only for them to finish 2nd once again.
Maybe it’s the focus on young players, or maybe it’s a lack of belief that they can win the big prizes, but they are very much the team you would want to face or come up against in a pressure situation.
I hate Sancho but that's distasteful.Sancho will now need the first 4 months of next season off to work on his mental health because we did'nt all gather around him after the final and say he's amazing.
Hating someone you don't know in real life is also distasteful.I hate Sancho but that's distasteful.
SameI'm glad they lost. For whatever reason I can't stand them.
Not as much as making fun of his mental health issues?Hating someone you don't know in real life is also distasteful.

I was glad to see them lose also… I think it’s because any player we get from them seems to not pan out, and be priced very high, and then also because of them being like Germany’s Liverpool.I don't know why but I wanted them to lose. Maybe it's their Twitter admin.
feck them.
The team wasn't even that young. Four Dortmund starters were 30 or older (one even 35), seven were at least 25 and only two younger than 24, the youngest being Adeyemi at 22. Average age 27 years to Madrid's 27.5.
The reason I'm pointing that out is that Dortmund actually changed up their transfer strategy recently and I think it was a big mistake (they actually seem to think that as well since they went back to the former strategy of signing young and technical players in the winter break).
