Borussia Dortmund also replaced a large amount of power. A better soccer team with a new coach and new team can meet expectations of Bayern Munich's only rival.

Dortmund was disappointed in many ways in the 2017/2018 season. Peter Boss, who assumed the post with high expectations, was fired last October. Assistant manager Peter Stutgers finished the season in fourth place, completing the remaining schedule. Among other players including Mahmoud David Dahud, Maximilian Phillip and Andre Yarmolenko, few were considered more than expected.

Among players recruited this year, Belgium's major midfielder Axel witsel was the most talked about. Rather than being a superstar, witsel's move to return to Europe after playing for Tianjin teda, China, giving up a large salary. In addition, Mainz05 striker Abdou Diallo, midfielder Thomas Delaney of Werderbremen, and goalie Marvin Hitz of Augsburg are among others. Instead, strikers Yarmolenko (Westham) and Andre Schurelle (Fullham), defender Socratis (Astral), and midfielder Mikel Merrillo Castro (Newcastle). Roman Bidenfeller, who has devoted himself to the team for 16 seasons, retired.

The pre-season results were good. After beating Manchester City and Liverpool in the 2018 International Champions Cup, he recorded four wins, two draws and one loss, and has his last friendly match against Lazio on Tuesday.

Lucien Favre, who took over Dortmund's baton in May, is a veteran player who knows how to make a sensation by playing soccer that is both realistic and balanced. He is good at using fast and fast-paced players. In Germany, Borussia MunchenGladbach was restored to the top team in Bundesliga. In France, the top three was a hot topic.

The official Bundesliga website predicts that Dortmund will have two tactics this season. Lucien Favre is equipped with enough teams to use the 4-3-3 formations he played when he was in Nice. The center midfielder, who is active and has good midfield control, is waiting for Bechle and Delaney. There are aggressive midfielders such as Mario Gotze, kagawa and Shinji who can create creativity in harmony with them. The Bundesliga website predicted that Marco Reus and Christian Pulišić The defense is a combination of Marcel Schmelzer, Dialo, Manuel Arkansas and Wukash Pischwang. The goal is protected by a newly hired Hitz.

Another way to shake Bundesliga is to use the 4-4-1-1 formation during the time of the storm. In particular, the meeting with Reus, who perfected Lucien Favre tactics, is remarkable. Reus is once again a shadow striker, and Philip, who is athletic, will be on the front line. It is predicted that Jadden Sancho and Pulišić

It is interesting to note that this projected lineup will only be achieved by excluding some famous players. In particular, the central midfielders will be eliminated from whatever form they use, including Zebastian Lloyd, Mahmoud David, Julian weigl nd Nuri Sahin. VWeigl as selected as the first team coach for former coach Thomas Tuchel, but he has lost his competitive edge since last season, failing to adapt to changes in tactics. He needs to adjust to Fabre's strategy of focusing on the defense and scope of midfielders. On the other hand, Dahud has been coached by Fabre at munchengladbach, so if his condition improves, he will be able to compete against each other.

Under Lucien Favre Dortmund is likely to use an unexpected lineup. His strong point is that he can pull out all the players through the best combination. As the combination of talent and fame is more important than the combination, there is a chance that a star will emerge as a surprise.

Regardless of which tactics he uses, Dortmund is full of promising players will basically fit in with Lucien Favre personality. It is likely that promising players will develop further under Lucien Favre Among the main members mentioned above, Dialo, Sancho, Arkansas, and Pulišić lost his competitive edge since last season, failing to adapt to changes in tactics. He needs to adjust to Lucien Favre strategy of focusing on the defense and scope of midfielders. On the other hand, Dahud has been coached by Lucien Favre at munchengladbach, so if his condition improves, he will be able to compete against each other.
