Overview
- Niko Kovac said rivals are focusing their marking on Serhou Guirassy and called for more mobility and movement in the final third to free him.
- The coach tasked teammates with creating confusion for defenders, naming Karim Adeyemi, Maximilian Beier, Julian Brandt and Fábio Silva as key contributors.
- Guirassy remains Dortmund’s top league scorer with six goals, though he has looked less threatening than last season.
- Kovac expressed confidence that Guirassy will score important goals soon after the striker missed a big chance in the 0-2 Champions League loss to Inter Milan.
- He argued there is no offensive crisis, citing that Dortmund have scored three goals in each of their last three Bundesliga matches.
