This is a new era, for better or worse, where money ultimately rules. Clubs can't sustain real success trying to do it the way Dortmund, Southampton, or whoever else you want to throw out there are doing it.



Dortmund is a global grand and plays infront of a packed 80k stadium each week and makes loads of revenue. They went from a mismanaged almost bankrupt club to a very rich one the last 10 years.

If Dortmund are content to play second fiddle to Bayern and fight for a CL spot every year and get bounced early out of Europe they can probably do that but, as you say, for the second biggest club in Germany they should strive for more.



They have the resources to contend in europe and did it before Klopp was the coach.

In the money era Dortmund has done nothing outside of that CL Final a couple of years ago. They weren't even in Europe for over a decade.

If their business model is to have money they won't spend they will stay largely irrelevant rather than a few blips of success here and there until their team is poached apart again.
