Schulz, Hazard, Brandt, Diallo, Delaney, Dahoud, Schurrle. They sign from within the league often.
I think they've earmarked Gerrard for the role.If he lives to the hype then I can see that happening
Dortmund have signed a couple of players from Gladbach in recent seasons: Hazard and Dahoud. And Reus almost a decade ago. Don't think there have been any signings between Liverpool and United in the same period or longer.
No, Dortmund's rivals are Schalke and Bochum; Gladbach's rivarlries are rather with Köln and Leverkusen, from what I understand. They're not that close in a region that's absolutely packed with clubs.
Seems like the natural food chain in Germany.
I was sure about Schalke but not Gladbach, and that paint a different picture to be fair. Thank for the info.
Who was in two years ago ? Howe, gasperini, ten hag, jardim
Quite accurate. Gladbach might even have more of a rivalry with Bayern than Dortmund.
That's kinda like how every bigger club is hated though. Probably Southampton have developed a healthy dislike of Liverpool as well.
(Even without the Van Dijk incident.)You think this is going to destabilize Gladbach? cuz dortmund are really a shambles right now.
And there will always be genuinely brilliant managers coming through who will establish themselves as top managers eventually.
And of course we have the perfect manager now. Can't wait for Nagelsmann to go elsewhere as well, i'll be celebrating like you
You'll be the first to want him out of he came here and wasn't immediately successful
Yeah, this is like the time I took 5 pounds out my mum's purse while someone else constantly robs banks.Wow, purposely weakening (one of) your biggest competitor and on top announcing it directly before the duel of the two teams.
Dortmund is really trying to copy Bayern aren't they?
Can't wait for the German media to spin this positive right after bashing Bayern again because of the Upamecano transfer.
FYI: Dortmund has bought more players/managers from Gladbach (Reus, Hazard, Dahoud, Rose) than Bayern from Dortmund.
Which is highly likely, over-rated and won nothing. Just the next hipster manager.
When does a manager stop being a hipster one? What managers that we're linked to aren't hipster? I see this insult thrown around a lot and I don't really get it. It seems every young manager is a "hipster" manager according to plenty on here.
Would Mourinho have been called hipster in 2004? Or Arsene Wenger in 1996?
I won't call him overrated but fans always want the shiny new toy (i.e. Manager or player) without considering if it would actually be better than what we've got.
No, they are not. Schalke, Bayern - Hoffenheim and Leipzig, to an extent, recently due to their rise.
I'm not sure I would call Hoffenheim or Leipzig a rivalry. There has been a lot of tension because of cultural disagreements, but unlike with Schalke or Bayern it wouldn't be a big deal at all if players get transferred between the clubs.
"So-called rivalry", I suppose, that is what my Dortmund mates tell me but you're right, yes.
And?
Maybe the manager isn't the problem...And?
2018-ongoing. £305M spent and still horrible football, but somehow I’m being painted as someone with an expectation for immediate success
Thanks for the horrific flashback.
Genuinely laughed out loud, well played
Says more about the work he's done at Gladbach and how underpar Dortmund have been than anything else. It's a big step up for him. That Dortmund attack with him as manager is a tasty proposition once he's settled down
Christ, I hadn't even though of that!
Yes, not a promising comparison from Dortmund's perspective...
