Love the layout, the graphics and everything, really nice start - good luck beating Bayern to the title :P
Good Update, but something must've gone really wrong on your graphics. It says 2:0 against Cologne, you have 4 goals mentioned below the results and the table says a goal difference of +3! There clearly went something terribly wrong!

September

http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150105/5cnnybjl.png

Bundesliga, Signal Iduna Park, 13th September 2014

http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150105/u8xb59ro.png

A good start for Borussia Dortmund in the second month of the season, when they played against VfB Stuttgart.
Ciro Immobile had a really bad day against SC Freiburg, but he made the supporters forget that day by putting the ball behind the opposition goalkeeper 3 times and carried Dortmund to the win over an in-form Stuttgart.
However Shinji Kagawa didn't look well, when being substituted injured in the 24th minute.

UEFA Champions League, Santiago Bernabéu, 16th September 2014

A day to forget for Borussia Dortmund. They couldn't have wished for a worse start, as they were destroyed by Real Madrid.
Especially Lukasz Piszczek's horrible performance lead to the poor result, as he let Christiano Ronaldo and Fábio Coentrão dominate the left wing and create tons of chances.
Dortmund turned up during the last 10 minutes and Aubameyang scored a goal, but it was way too late for his team to turn the game around.

Bundesliga, Olympiastadion, 20th September 2014

Marco Reus' first game after being injured for a longer period and he immediatly put in a world class display, getting 2 goals and 1 assist. However the Dortmund side didn't play way better than the boys from Berlin, but Reus made the difference this time.

Bundesliga, Signal Iduna Park, 23rd September 2014

What a tremendous performance by Dortmund!
The result doesn't even display the course of the game. Augsburg struggled to get the ball into the right direction and Weidenfeller had nothing to do during the whole match.
On the other side, Augsburg's keeper was tested 27 times and put in a decent performance, as it could've ended with a much bigger result for 'die Borussia'.
Nevertheless the match had some negatives, as Papastathopoulos and Durm had to be substituted due to their injuries.

Bundesliga, HDI-Arena, 26th September 2014

http://fs1.directupload.net/images/150105/awbuelcs.png

Great day for Marian Sarr! The 19 year old centre back replaced the injured Papastathopoulos and was immediatly announced as Player of the Match. Not only that he organized the defence really well, he also scored a goal after a great corner kick by Marco Reus.
Unlucky Dortmund suffers from 2 more new injuries and might miss Marcel Schmelzer and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang over the next weeks.

Since the end of the last season, Dortmund has to struggle with injuries over and over again.
Sure they will be happy, that Marco Reus, Jakub Blaszczykowski, Henrik Mkhitaryan and Ilkay Gündogan made their way back to the pitch, but therefor multiple other players are now injured.

Status 28th September 2014:


Shinji Kagawa will be out for 5-10 days due to a twisted ankle.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will be off the pitch for 3-5 days after he stubbed his toe.

After he strained his neck, Sokratis Papastathopoulos will be out for 2 to 4 days.

Dortmund will miss Marcel Schmelzer for 3 weeks as he is still suffering from pulled harmstring.

Nuri Sahin has already been missing for a long time, as he is undergoing treatment for a knee tendonitis. He still hast to wait 2-6 weeks until he can return to training.


Dortmund ahead of Bayern

http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150105/4raq5r63.png

The great performances by Borussia Dortmund are perfectly displayed by their position in the Bundesliga. Not only that they still haven't lost a match and are in the first spot, they also achieved an amazing goal difference so far. This comes from Ciro Immobiles fantastic performances and many goals, that also made him the current Bundesliga topscorer.

With 7 goals in the league, Immobile is way ahead of his predecessor Robert Lewandowski, who could only put the ball 1 time into the back of the net for his new club Bayern München.

However, the Borussia Dortmund Player of the Month is definitly Marco Reus. Not many players would be able to return to the starting eleven right after an injury and achieve 3 goals and 4 assists in only 4 matches. He once again proved, that he is a world class player.

Bad start against Madrid

http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150105/fmmjjupe.png

Borussia dortmund find theirselves in the last spot after their horrible match against Real Madrid. Nobody at Dortmund will be happy about that start, but knowing that there are still 5 matches left to qualify for the First Knockout Round, the squad will surely go motivated and concentrated into their next match against RSC Anderlecht.


Top Clubs want Reus

http://fs1.directupload.net/images/150105/g8ujictg.png

Marco Reus had been linked to several clubs over the last year, but after being injured multiple times, he had to focus on getting back to old fitness rather than possible future destinations.
His latest performances revived those rumours and alot of european top clubs seem to be interested and they are even more interested, since Bayern's Karl-Heinz Rummenige made the Minimum Fee Release claus of 26.500.000 € public to possibly cause trouble at Dortmund.
Reus often stated, that he is a huge fan of FC Barcelona, but he couldn't join the Catalans before 2016.

A possible destination would be Manchester United, as Louis Van Gaal got a huge amount of money available to strengthen the squad, that had a terrible season last year, under the lead of David Moyes.
Since they couldn't qualify for European football, they might offer him alot of money, to make a move to england more attractive.

Real Madrid are also said to be trying to sign the world class midfielder and Marco Reus is taking spanish lessons, as media reported.
However Real Madrid already have a strong side and multiple options on Reus position so they probably have to offload one or two players, to guarantee Reus a spot in the starting eleven.

Borussia Dortmund's rivals Bayern München are also interested in Marco's signature and Rummenige openly said what a brilliant player he is. While Robben and Ribery are not getting any younger, he would perfectly fit into the München squad and Reus would be surely happy to play together with his friends and former team-mates Lewandowski and Götze.

Elsewhere 'die Borussen' are trying to tie down a new contract with Reus to remove this ridiculous low Minimum Fee Release clause, as it would be surely painful to let this quality player go for such a comparatively small amount of money. But it doesn't look to good for Dortmund, since Reus turned down multiple offers before, while Klopp was still in charge.

Only Marco himself knows, which club he will choose.
Till then we can only wait and enjoy watching him play!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEE SIGN ROLLS REUS ON A NEW CONTRACT!!!! HE WILL BE KEY!
Wow I gotta say I'm loving your graphical work in this story! Hopefully you'll tie Reus down to a new contract as he's an exceptional player who would be sorely missed if he left. Keep up the good work.
I'm in awe at the graphics! Good inspiration for other stories I'm sure! Unlucky against Real, should still escape the group though!!
