Btw: It is a German national holiday ;-)!
Are you going to the game, and what do you expect?
Who are the players City fans should beware of?
I know Subotic, Hummels, Reus and Gotze but largely through transfer speculation rather than seeing them play.
Borussia Dortmind are a widely admired club amongst a lot of fans in England because of the crowds you get and the atmosphere created.
Hi Marvin,
yes I'll travel Monday night to Manchester (as a lot of Fans will do already), Tuesday work off, Wednesday public holiday, Thursday back to Germany and Friday back to work ;-))..
Does not (even as a club member) have a ticket yet :-((..Because BVB is getting officially only 5% which means 2.500 tickets and they have been sold out within 5 minutes. So a lot of us tried to bock via your web side, but not in the 'home section' we have tried to purchase around the away blocks, but your club cancelled everything :-((...Arsenal did not last year and we had no trouble at all. We understand we the situation in England is like it is (Hillsborough, Taylor Report, etc.) but it is strange for us because normally we can travel with a lot of people. And also you can purchase tickets in Dortmund besides the away stands. So maybe if the game is not selling out the club can re-think about that.
Regarding your question: Götze was a target for English clubs, Forward Robert Lewandowski, in general the 3 Poland international Piszczek , Kuba, Lewandowski...Reus the new attacking midfielder is a weapon. We have Perisic and Großkreutz on the wings. In the back Hummels and Subotic, left wing Schmelzer, all international players. Our biggest issue currently is the defense since we have collected 6 goals in the last two games (3 each) but we are a good attacking side. So I think we should have a good entertaining game next Wednesday ;-).
Cheers
