# Hummel: Borussia Dortmund's Season Ratings
The 2022/23 season has been one of the most thrilling in recent memory for Borussia Dortmund. Under the leadership of manager Terrenko (assuming the name is correct), the team has once again proven their ability to compete at the highest level, both domestically and in Europe.
### Bundesliga Performance
Dortmund finished the season in a commendable 3rd place in the Bundesliga, securing 67 points. While they fell short of qualifying for the Champions League via the traditional route, their strong finish and a positive goal difference (GD) of +19 highlights their competitiveness. The team’s ability to dominate matches at home was evident, with a stellar 14-1-2 record at the Westfalia Stadium. However, their away form was a bit inconsistent, which might have cost them a higher finish.
### Defensive Struggles
One of the key points of discussion this season has been Dortmund’s defense. The team often looked vulnerable at the back, especially with a series of injury problems in the defensive department. Despite this, the team still managed to keep clean sheets in crucial matches, showing their resilience. Key defenders like Nico Schlotterbeck and Mats Hummels played pivotal roles in maintaining structure and organization.
### Attacking Options
Dortmund’s attack has been a joy to watch, with young stars like Jadon Sancho and Youssoufa Moussa making significant contributions. The signing of Moises Caicedo added depth and versatility to the midfield, allowing the team to adapt to different opponents. The chemistry between Sancho and Moussa has been a highlight, creating numerous chances and goals throughout the season.
### Managerial Impact
Terrenko’s impact on the team cannot be overstated. His positional play and tactical awareness have brought a new dimension to Dortmund’s game. The manager has also emphasized the importance of youth development, which has paid dividends with the emergence of young talents. The team’s ability to adapt to different playing styles has been a key factor in their success this season.
### Mid-Season Dip
Like many teams, Dortmund experienced a slight dip in form mid-season, which led to a dip in results. However, they quickly regrouped and showed their character to finish strongly. The team’s ability to recover from injuries and maintain consistency in the latter stages of the season speaks volumes about their mental strength.
### DFB-Pokal Success
Dortmund also made history by winning the DFB-Pokal, their first major trophy since 2017. The victory was a well-deserved reward for the team’s hard work and determination, and it provided a silver lining to an otherwise slightly disappointing Bundesliga campaign.
### Looking Ahead
As the season draws to a close, Dortmund will look to build on their performance and make further progress next time. The transfer market will be key, with defensive reinforcements and possibly midfield additions expected. The team’s young core is exciting, and with the right additions, they could challenge for the Bundesliga title and potentially return to the Champions League stage via the Europa League or another domestic cup.
In summary, this has been a season of growth and promise for Borussia Dortmund. While there are areas to improve, the foundation is there for the team to achieve even greater success in the future. Fans can’t wait to see what the Black and Yellow army will accomplish next!
