"My wish is that we will develop players who are artists with the ball and monsters without it."Thomas Broich
This quote is sure to fire up every single Borussia Dortmund fan heading into the weekend. But while the statement is easy to get behind, is it even realistic? In a nearly 90-minute podcast appearance on the BVB YouTube channel, the former Brisbane Roar player goes in-depth on what his plans are in Brackel, the lessons he learned from his career as a player, and the importance of setbacks for young players.
The 44-year-old also shared his optimistic vision for the BVB teams of the future. When he first arrived in Germany's capital, he knew Dortmund had resources, but he didn't expect to be met with such a solid foundation. He was elated by the state-of-the-art facilities and the world-class sports psychologists, athletic trainers, and video analysts working inside of them.
