GK: Roman Bürki

Bürki is a fantastic goalkeeper when things are going great for him. The Swissman is tall, strong and capable of organizing his defense. However, Bürki is wildly inconsistent and you never know what to expect from him. Dortmund brought in Marwin Hitz (30) and Eric Oelschlägel (22) on free transfers early in the window and their purpose is very clear. In case Bürki fails to find his form, Hitz will be the man to hold the fort. Oelschlägel, however, is expected  to dethrone Bürki on a more long-term basis and become the first-choice keeper at BVB.
