Sun Nov 03 03:07:03 UTC 2024: ## Dortmund Coach Sahin Under Fire After Poor Start to Season
Borussia Dortmund’s struggles continue, with the team suffering their third defeat of the Bundesliga season on Saturday against FC Augsburg. The Black and Yellows are reeling in seventh place and the pressure is mounting on coach Nuri Sahin.
Former Liverpool and Bayern Munich midfielder Didi Hamann made a startling claim after the match, suggesting that some Dortmund players are no longer willing to play under Sahin. “I have the feeling that after ten games, the situation has now arisen where some players no longer want this coach,” Hamann said on Sky Sport. “The players have been given far too much power.”
While Hamann acknowledged Sahin’s youth and the need for patience, he noted that the poor start to the season has diminished the coach’s untouchable status.
Despite Hamann’s comments, Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl expressed full confidence in Sahin’s ability to turn things around.
The club faces a crucial test on Tuesday in the DFB-Pokal against VfL Wolfsburg, as they look to regain momentum and silence their critics.
