ESPN FC’s Shaka Hislop and Steve Nicol join Dan Thomas to react to Thomas Delaney’s comments on Gab Marcotti and Julien Laurens’ podcast following Borussia Dortmund’s 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich, where Joshua Kimmich scored a spectacular chip over Roman Burki. The FC guys address Delaney’s defeatist comments because it “disrespects” the entire Dortmund squad. Hislop praises Delaney’s honesty and likens it to his Newcastle United side that were unable to win the Premier League title.

  1. Both teams had chances to capitalize on and score goals just buyern was better on that regard more interestingly haaland got few opportunities which was unsuccessful. On the day of the match the aim is scoring and buyern did that.

  2. To get to the top, they have to stop selling Bayern their best player and start buying top quality in the league and abroad

  3. Hard being a Dortmund fan sometimes. Too much focus on LOVE, all this happy go lucky bs all the time, Dortmund need to be ruthless, they need to hold each other ACCOUNTABLE AS DELANEY IS TRYING TO DO.

  4. Wow. I rarely agree with Stevie, but here we are. He's right. It's tough for a team that is considered by many other teams to be a great place to "develop" their young talent.
    Bayern on the other hand have a stable core, which has been purposely shaped and molded over time. They know each other well and their plays are set and polished.
    For Dortmund, they constantly get new youngsters in, and there is often open talk of those who will soon transfer somewhere else. (Sancho for example).
    Which is why I couldn't understand, in another segment, Don's insistence that Dortmund should change their coach. They are currently second only to Bayern. Come on.

  5. Stevie is right,but this should have been seen coming though Bayern Munich can buy the best players of teams that they finished above

  6. Normally I would say Stevie is right in this. However, when it comes to Dortmund, I think Thomas was totally on point by saying this out loud. BVB is not a winning club, simple as that. They focus on the happy go-getter fotball, which young players thrive under and develop great with. While this is a sympathetic stragedy, and can be capitalized on at times (2013) it is also a stragedy that does not harmonise well with einning titles. Dortmund needs to take a look at themselves as a club, and where they want to go. In Germany people conviniently skip this topic, burt Thomas Delaney does the right thing here, and calls it out as it is…..
