The DFB-Pokal cup champions defeated Hamburg 1-0 in the semi-finals of LIGA Total! Cup on Saturday, but the new arrival still feels that they were not at their best form.
Borussia Dortmund’s new signing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marco-Reus-c23733 has suggested that despite their one goal win over Hamburg in the new season’s preparation tournament and advancement to the final, he is not happy with their performance and expects the
Bundesliga side to perform better.
The 23-year-old transferred back to his boyhood club this summer after spells with Rot Weiss Ahlen and Borussia Monchengladbach for three years apiece. He made his name at Die Fohlen and helped them qualify for Europe’s premier
cup competition this year.
The young prodigy is pleased to move back to the club where he spent his youth career before signing for Ahlen. The attacker is excited ahead of the new season and wants Jurgen Klopp’s team to quickly regain full fitness and mount
a serious challenge for the League title again this term.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 international player insisted that he was not satisfied by their performance and told that they were not fully fit, even though, they prepared massively.
"I'm happy about my decision to go to BVB. But that was by no means 100 per cent. Our preparation was very hard but the workload has scaled down a bit now," the midfielder was quoted as saying in an interview.
Hamburg playmaker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcell-Jansen-c23544 appreciated the achievements of the Bundesliga champions for two years running after their match with the BVB. He claimed that the Borussen outfit were razor sharp and played with full confidence
and also displayed great movement with the ball in their semi-final victory.
"We played against the German champions. They arrived with killer-confidence. They are strong on the ball and came here with a killer self-confidence," the 26-year old finally concluded.
The German double winning team kick-off their season on August 12 with their first match against Bayern Munich in the DFL-Supercup game. Dortmund will be looking forward to win their third straight league championship along with
an improved performance in the UEFA Champions League competition.
