Arda K wrote:sure they dont the money some bigger clubs do but they are still a cl team with enough money to give satisfactory wages. leicester and tottenham are able to fend off bigger clubs that are offering better wages and they are just starting to get cl money. despite the interest from richer clubs, atletico usually able to sign their players long enough contracts where it takes a fortune to sign one of their players. there is no reason for dortmund not to create an atmosphere where only top money gets their players, yet somehow each time players cant wait to exit the club.

atletico got 60 million for falcao and 40 million for arda, at no point either of them said **** you we are leaving whether you like it or not, both transactions were results of massive offers. look at it this way, in comparison dortmund got 25 million total for two comparable players in lewandowski and gundogan. ballpark that's 75 million just lost on two players that were in similar statures to falcao and arda. add hummels, goetze, kagawa, sahin who all forced their way out below market value at the time and now mkh is on his way out in similar conditions, there is certainly something very wrong with how dortmund conducts business and/or treats players. as you can see from atletico examples, when players love and respect their clubs they dont get in the way of their clubs earning maximum value even when they leave for greener pastures.
