You're Halaand, either a) go to a club in turmoil, currently 7th, a point behind Sheffield United, that has a manager who has relegated Cardiff and managed in the cauldron of competition that is Norway, with a list of players who have joined and seen their careers blossom elsewhere or b) go to a team that continues to develop players, is in the UCL, plays attractive football, before going onto one of Europe's elite clubs in a big money move.
Take your United glasses off and realise, the player looked at us and thought, Dortmund is the better bet for me and my career.
