From my point of view, Dortmond played better than Bayern overall but they couldn't manage to score. I was really impressed by Dembele. He's got potential to be really special.
@neumi17 I'm bit optimistic for Gotze. I think he can play in the same manner as King Miki did under tuchel system. On the face value of it both offers same attributes. Like @takido suggested earlier Gotze could be in bad shape.
what a smooth passer batra is. I can't really say that can surpass hummels in that department. But I can easily proclaim he is best passers among defenders in the La Roja. Ramos and Pique definetiely way lot better defender than Batra. But I could be wrong you know. Man what a sigining he is.
Why do Dortmund invest so much more in their offense than their defense? Last season they already scored more goals than Bayern, they also conceded twice the amount of goals than Bayern did. Now Hummels left and it will be even worse. They go for the "outscore the opponent" option, let's hope for them it works.
@taktiko that is a very good question actually. But I'm more concenred about stockpiling attacking mid fielder and wingers. Purchase like Schrule or Gotze would only mean less chances to guys like Pulsic, Passlack, Leitner(who i genuinely believed could have replaced gundogan-atleast klopp had the idea) and Duksch(who has been sold) were not given great amount chances. I'm concerned about Passlack more as been a while Dortmund had won gold medal in fritz walter medal. Quite a while he has been wasted as wing back(he was attacking midfielder/winger hybrid for Godsake) not only that now he has compete with Piszeck, Gurrerio and Durm not an ideal way to develop a youngster.
@Ffaris Passlack played good at right back. He managed to frustrate Ribery a lot and disrupt his game. It's weird why Tuchel played Ramos instead of Pulisic (or Mor), Ramos isn't suited for the passing game Dortmund plays.
And I hope Götze becomes play ready asap so Dortmund can up their quality (instead of Castro).
@taktiko he looked good I agree the way leashed ribbery was mighty impressive. Like I said if guy wins Gold Medal for being attacking mid fielder-might I tell it been a while since Bvb graduate has earned that medal- it would like wasting his good talent on being right back. Playing Ramos as right winger was strange. Guess tuchel took a leaf from Guardiola book hmmm. Kimmich as centerback Alaba as whatever he wants to be. Alonso as center back. Seems like Tuchel had the same idea on his mind as well.

@CirdomAkul I hope Dembele remains in Dortmund for long time and win champions league
Götze so bad in shape, he didn't even get substituted...
@neumi17 I'm bit optimistic for Gotze. I think he can play in the same manner as King Miki did under tuchel system. On the face value of it both offers same attributes. Like @takido suggested earlier Gotze could be in bad shape.
@neumi17 Only 3 substitutions allowed...
@taktiko Mhm,don`t get it.He could have been one of the 3...
@neumi17 Maybe the manager wanted a different option?

@taktiko Because they didn't have any dribbler and desperately needed some...
