    The English winger netted his maiden goal since returning to Dortmund on loan from Manchester United as he scored in the club's 2-1 win over Werder Bremen during the weekend.

  • WHAT EDIN TERZIC SAID

    Speaking to reporters, the Dortmund boss said: "In the last few days and weeks, I’ve gotten many, many questions about why he isn’t where he was yet. For us, it makes complete sense if you take into account what his last 12 months looked like, and yet last week he was very dissatisfied and there was a long conversation.

    "After the game, he was dissatisfied because he said he lost the ball too many times, especially in the second half, and that’s what I like about him. He is not just focusing on his goal but taking in the entire performance. Even though he hadn’t scored in the last few weeks, we’ve seen that he’s well on his way there. We know he’s not 100 per cent yet but we’ll get him there."

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Earlier, Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl had blamed Manchester United for Sancho's poor run of form while praising the player's performance against Bremen. Kehl claimed that getting banished from the squad earlier in the season had affected the 23-year-old performance and went on to compare his absence from the pitch to suffering an ACL injury.
