Re: *Transfers Special* Which players should Borussia Dortmund buy and sell this summer?

Can't believe I forgot about the LB issue... there's some real lack of quality LB's in the Bundesliga so I don't know who I would like to sign maybe PSV's Willems if he's available.

The Centre back has to be technically gifted and be able to pass from the back into midfield IMO.

When Hummels is out they struggle to get the ball into the midfield, their high pressing game always means it will be tough for teams to get at their defence.

Another Santana who has 0 distribution ability is asking for trouble.

Also I think a lot of people have to consider the possibility of Dortmund signing a winger and Reus playing CF and AM because i think that is happening.

Too many links to wingers from reliable sources for it not to

That's why I would like Dortmund to sign Matthias Ginter he's very comfortable on the ball it's like having an extra midfielder and he's a quality defender too. Martins Indi is another option to look at.

Agree about the winger thing, Bernard guy looks like happening - I don't even know how good he is but I assume he would be a starter considering the money the selling club are asking for.

For fullback Andreas Beck is probably a good option. Hoffenheims about toget relegated but Beck just a few years ago was chased by a bunch of big clubs such as Juventus and others. He plays rightback at Hoffenheim but I'm sure he'd be a great backup for either side and could even compete with Schmelzer for the LB position.

As for Podolski. He says he doesn't want to leave but I really wouldn't be surprised if he did anyways. Wenger has not exactly treated him fairly, I understand that hes been hampered by injuries but even when he has been healthy he has been played at LW which he has said he doesn't like even though hes willing to do it for the team, and a lot of times has been used as an 85th minute sub. A player of that quality should never be benched and should get to play kin the position where hes best, which is centrally, as an SS, so since Arsenal don't play with an SS I think Poldi should be used as the 10.

Never watched Bernard lol, just assumed he's good enough to start - my personal favourite XI with those signings would be:

Kuba Eriksen Reus
Bony

In fact I would sign *another* striker instead of a winger and let Reus play on the left.

Don't like the idea of making too many changes in the first team, Götze and Lewandowski leaving is already too much.

Me neither, but I really doubt that this 20 year old is better in his position compared to Bony who's been nothing short than fantastic this year. Your starting lineup would be pretty nice to see.

Dortmund are rumored to sell Piszczek to Arsenal. Who should be the replacement if that happens?

by VivaStPauli Sat May 11, 2013 1:21 pm

If they did, I'd agree with Juve101 and get Beck.
He's been wasting away at Hoffenheim, but I remember him 2 seasons back being actually pretty good, but TBH I don't think they'll sell Pisczek.

IN: Dzeko, Eriksen, De Bruyne, Ginter
OUT: Götze (done already), Lewandowski (if he wants to leave, keep if he wants to stay) - keep everyone else, they're either not worth any money or good enough for the bench.
