Confirmed Borussia Dortmund lineup for DFB-Pokal clash against Gladbach
By Tushar Bahl
Midfielders: Thomas Delaney, Mahmoud Dahoud, Jude Bellingham
Thomas Delaney has shaken off his illness and starts in the Borussia Dortmund midfield. Having the Dane in the team will give the midfield some much-needed security and physical presence.
With Delaney now available, Mahmoud Dahoud will start alongside Jude Bellingham in the dual number eight role.
Mahmoud Dahoud has been excellent over the past three games. And he showed against Arminia Bielefeld that he can also play in the slightly deeper, number six role. With the form he is in, the former Gladbach midfielder is undroppable at the moment.
Jude Bellingham also showed glimpses of his quality on Saturday. The 17 year old is certainly enjoying an impressive debut season in Germany.
