Borussia Dortmund – Marco Reus: BVB “not so stable”, but …

Before the important group game against Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League, Marko Reus commented on BVB’s not always so convincing appearances this season – and asked for understanding.

“We have struggled incredibly hard with the personnel situation in the last few weeks. Then it is not always easy to push the playful component upwards,” said Reus in an interview with Sky.

Coach Marco Rose had to do without five potential regulars in the meantime. The failure of striker Erling Haaland, who will probably still be missing for BVB at least until the top game against FC Bayern Munich on December 4th, is particularly painful.

Therefore, fluctuations can hardly be prevented, added Reus: “In terms of the overall situation, we are not that stable.” However, he was “talked too badly. You’re one point behind Bayern, but still have the feeling that you’re playing a bad season.”

Reus, who scored the winning goal for Borussia against VfB Stuttgart in the 85th minute last Saturday, also emphasized: “It has often been said that we play well but lose the games. This year it’s a little different , because we struggle a little (playfully), but win the games. That is a new strength of ours. Even if it is not nice to look at for the audience – in the end it is all about the three points. “
