winning the league twice, finishing runners up should be pretty convincing. not sure what else you can do apart from be the main competitor for the league.
You say that but their best player has gone to their rivals and this current team is probably on the verge of a break up. Klopp will have to rebuild a new team and do it again. It’s too short of a time frame to consider Dortmund as one of the elite clubs. They have/had an elite team but it all depends on what happens after that and if they can sustain the success.
you can never prove it if you are not given the chance and they done everything possible to ensure the players had the platform to build on it. there is nothing else they could've done. winning the league twice in three years, hitting the cl semi's too should show they are heading in the right direction. you can't invent a history (even though they are a pretty successful club) so what else can they do?
So last year Dortmund sold kagawa to a bigger club, this year goetze to main rivals and lewandoski is likely to go too. Klopp sounds like perfect wenger replacement
There are bigger clubs out there and players will always be drawn to them. Dortmund will have to keep on plugging away until they a establish a long term reputation. The last 3 years isn’t enough to establish that and build a legacy.
That's the food chain for you. Bayern will always be the most influential and dominant club in Germany, Dortmund are a great club in their own right but that's the way it is over there. Sucks I know.
It's over.
I just hope they go mental now and splurge it on a Lewandowski replacement. A certain tall, Geordie called Andy Carroll.
Saying that, the sympathy for Dortmund; they're probably going to do the same to someone else. That's football...

Was surprised he stayed in Germany although I never thought he would be on his way to us! He is stll young enough to see out one contract with BM and then move I suppose.
Any players looking likely to leave BM? No doubt Pep will give the squad the once over when he takes the reins proper.
Still means that we need to make additions . . .70mi, yeah righ but if it were true I could do the lot o a package of Lewdo, Capoue and Isco. Still need a CB and GK. . .hmmmmm
Pep will walk the league with them next year.
