Borussia Dortmund Were the Pre-Season Champions of the Bundesliga – So Why Aren't They Winning?

Marco Reus insists that Borussia Dortmund don't have a mentality problem. And he's probably right.

"The own goal was a mentality problem? We defended stupidly in that situation, of course, but don't come around with your mentality s**t now," Reus told Sky after last week's 2-2 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt. "Every week the same s**t."

Mentality might not be a problem for Borussia Dortmund, but their overall quality and ability to compete with Bayern Munich or RB Leipzig in a three-way Bundesliga title race is proving to be their biggest shortfall in the hopes of securing the Meisterschale.
