It’s not so that there is no positive news from Borussia Mönchengladbach. The club announced just amazing success. The new jersey for the Champions League, for example, in the traditional black, is popular with the supporters very popular.
Meanwhile, as the club has informed last week, it’ll be already a shortage of supply, is already the kit the best selling club history. And the three home games in the Champions League are also already sold out

On Tuesday evening, when the Gladbacher at FC Sevilla (20.45 clock, live on Sky) their first Champions League match will be at all the excitement will reach its first climax. But the joyful event itself is being overshadowed by everyday life in the Bundesliga. “Really, I can be happy in the Champions League does not” Borussia sporting director Max Eberl said.
As the Gladbacher left for Andalusia, also Rainer Bonhof was a member of the tour group. The current Vice president of the club scored in April 1978. Borussia last goal in European Champion Clubs’ Cup. In the first leg of the semifinal Bonhof scored the 2: 1 final score against Liverpool, which the Moenchengladbach at the end – had to admit defeat – as in the previous year in the finals. In the seventies the Borussia was from the Lower Rhine Province a regular at the European Cup, they counted middle of the decade, even to the top of European football. Clubs such as Liverpool, Juventus and Real Madrid were encountered at eye level. Currently they were in Gladbach happy if they could keep up with 98 and FC Ingolstadt with Darmstadt

“On, on, on to the Champions League”, Borussia fans sang end of last season. Meanwhile, it feels more like: “Down, down, starting in the Champions League”. In the Bundesliga, the team is confident Last after four matchdays. She has brought no points, but already eleven goals conceded. That’s one more than in the entire second half of the preseason. At the weekend there was a deserved well at this level 0: 3 against Hamburger SV. “This defeat has hurt me in pride,” has Borussia goalkeeper Yann Sommer said. “I will not sit on me.”
The Champions League is for Mönchengladbach at the wrong time
To start the Moenchengladbach with a mixture of frustration and defiance in the Champions League, which still actually earned their undivided joy. The competition comes to the club a bit out of season. “We must use the Champions League to bring us positive results,” says sports director Eberl.

That sounds almost presumptuous, considering that the Gladbacher it in their group with Italian champions Juventus to get done, with the Europa League winners FC Sevilla and England’s league leaders Manchester City. Even for a team Gladbach in normal form that would be a daunting challenge. From normal form but just can not speak.
The failure suggests the players increasingly on the mind, the ease is gone, also tinkering coach Lucien Favre after the departure of national player Max Kruse (Wolfsburg) and Christoph Kramer (Leverkusen ) still at a new starting eleven – so far without success. In last season’s Favre, despite triple burden, got there with 19 players in the first four Bundesliga games this season he has already used 20. Exemplary newcomer Lars Stindl was called, who has already played in three different positions.
In Sevilla must Favre replace five players who belonged to all the tribe in the preseason. Martin Stranzl, Alvaro Dominguez, Patrick Herrmann and Fabian Johnson are injured; Granit Xhaka missing locked because he had seen in the last Europa League preseason game, also against Sevilla, a second yellow card. At that time, Gladbach were superior to the Spaniards in both the outward and the return leg. Really helpful this experience is for the present but probably not
