Dortmund's TV channel


Dortmund are happy to announce that their TV channel will now be available to people in the UK,Spain and France. The channel will include footage of training sessions, player and staff interviews, match reactions, footage from the Footbonaut and much more.
The footbonaut in action(above)

Here is our commentator commentating on yesterdays full 90 minute match.

Here comes Reus sprinting down the left hanside but then a great challenge by Patrick Owomoyela. It's now his turn to have a run at someone and he does. Reus comes back at him but Owomoyela calmly dodges the tackle. He's now coming up to the half way line and there is Santana. Santana will want to stop his good friend but he can't as Owomoyela just slots it through his legs and gets round him. Now here comes Hummels and Kirch but Owomyela just sprints past the pair of them. He is now clean through and bearing down on Langerak. Owomeyela could score a wonder goal here and he makes it even more special by lofting it over Langerak's head to score the perfect goal.

If you have virgin broadband you can find this channel on channel number 484.

Bundesliga Champions

DORTMUND ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF GERMANY

Dortmund won the Bundesliga yesterday after their 2-0 home win against VFB Stuttgart. The goals coming from Reus and Sahin. However Dortmund had to play an hour with only ten men after Christian Knappmann was shown a straight red card for elbowing Soon to be Dortmund player Arthur Boka in the face. Ricken was very angry with Knappmann because he had made it public that he felt he deserved a spot in the first team. When Ricken finally gives him his chance.....He does that.

The Dortmund players went crazy after the final whistle and brought out the huge bottles of beer like they had the last few years.

It has been a great season for Dortmmund. They have only lost 3 games and have only drawn 3. They are also on course to beat Bayerns record of goals in a season. Bayern set the record at 101 goals. Dortmund have scored 98 but they have two games left. Speaking of Bayern, Dortmund did very well to overcome them as Bayern still had not lost a game when we got to the winter break. I'm sure Lars Ricken will be very happy with his sides performance this season. They are also set to play Bayern in the German cup final in June. Can Bayern prevent a trophyless season or can Dortmund make it two.

Player of the month


It was hard to pick the player of the month but I have given it to Reus. His man of the match performance against Hoffenheim and his goal in the title winning game against Stuttgart gave him this award. It was also because of all the assists he handed out. He has therefore been the player with most assists in the Bundesliga with 21. He has also scored 18 goals in the league. Without him who knows what would have happened. I would also like to congratulate Lewandowski on winning the award for top scorer in the league with 27 goals.

Managers notes

The month we clinch the league title with 3 wins. Some great performances to go with it. However we still need to work hard on the training ground as we have the German cup final coming up in June. I want to win it and so do the fans. So lets give it our all.

Goals

Dortmund set a new Bundesliga record this year by scoring 105 goals in 34 games. Thus beating Bayerns previous record of 101. This is an average of 3 goals game. That's an incredible number og goals and here are the scorers.

Player-Number of goals
Sebastian Kehl-1
Neven Subotic-1

Felipe Santana-2

Kuba-3
Nuri Sahin-3
Mats Hummels-5
Kevin Grosskreutz-6
Ilkay Gundogan-6
Mario Gotze-7
Marco Reus-18

Congrats on winning the league :) I'm looking forward to what might be a busy transfer window in the summer! :P
Wow, I didn't expect Schieber to be doing so well, and Lewandowski is just top class!

BREAKING NEWS:Robert Lewandowski has announced that he will leave Dortmund on a free at the end of the year. In the interview he said that he had done everything he could at Dortmund and that he wanted to play his football in Spain or England. He says that he is very thankful towards Dortmund because without them he would not be where he is now. Lewandowski who scored 35 goals in all competitions last season has attracted attention from a lot of world class clubs.

We have a live interview with Lars Ricken coming up.

5 minutes later....

Q: Hello Lars, now a few questions about Lewandowski. Do you think it will be an emotional year for him next season?
Lars: There will not be a next season at Dortmund for him. We think we can get a lot of money for him and have therefore decided to sell him.

Q: Have any clubs offered for him?
Lars: He is very sought after and many clubs are willing to pay the asking price of 22 million. Chelsea,Benfica,Porto,PSG,Bayern Munich and Juventus.All offers have been accepted apart from Bayern Munich. We don't want the best player in the Bundesliga going to our rivals.

Outgoing Transfers


Robert Lewandowski-£20 million to Chelsea
He will be missed massively. His goals were crucial in the Bundesliga win and I'm sure he will be a fantastic player for the London club.
http://i.smimg.net/12/46/300x225/robert-lewandowski-dortmund.jpg

Neven Subotic-£18 million to Juventus
Another valuable first team member. The offer was too good to refuse. He will be easier to replace than Lewandowski and hopefully we get to play his Juventus team and get our revenge.

Sebastian Kehl-Free agent
Frustrated with his lack of first team opportunities Sebastian has decided not to renew his contract. The club is very disappointed to lose one of our long serving players.

Leonardo Bittencourt-Loan to Red Bull Salzburg
After a very successful loan season at Freiburg, we have decided to give him another season of first-team football. We have high expectations of him and he may only have one more season on loan.

Incoming transfers

Arthur Boka from VFB Stuttgart
The back-up left back considering Schmelzer is the only one.A very attacking defender who could give the team some new ideas.

CA:
PA:

Marc-Andre ter-Stegen from Borussia Monchengladbach
Despite Weidenfeller's fantastic season we have decided to replace him because he's not getting any younger and we have decided to secure ter-Stegens services now.

CA:
PA:

Salomon Rondon from Rubin Kazan
The closest thing to Robert Lewandowski that we could find and hopefully he will be able to emulate Lewandowski's success.

CA:
PA:

Ryan Shawcross from Stoke
After an injury to Mats Hummels I realised we needed a new Centre Back. Ryan is very strong mentally and physically and should do a fine job.

PA:

Gotoku Sakai from VFB Stuttgart
An exciting young player with a lo of talent. He will play the odd game at right back and even left back.

CA:
PA:

Nicolas Gaitan from Benfica
A very technical player with great skills on the ball. He will give Kuba a run for his money at the right wing position.

Pre-season Report



A poor Pre-season for us. It was a relatively short pre-season with only four games and we lost 3 of them. For the second time in a row we lose to Bayern in the super cup, which is disappointing. A good win against Inter but two poor performances against Tottenham and Catania meant that we deserved to lose.
