Marco Reus slammed Borussia Dortmund's defenders for 'always making the same mistakes' after a 4-2 defeat by Borussia Monchengladbach saw his side drop out of the top four.
Dortmund came from 1-0 down to lead 2-1 thanks to an Erling Haaland brace but they were pegged back by their opponents, who ended their 11-game losing streak.
The result saw Monchengladbach replace Dortmund in the Champions League places and BVB are now ten points behind league leaders Bayern Munich, who have played a game less.
A frustrated Reus laid into his team's defenders and admitted the club face a struggle if they don't start performing better.
'If we don't turn things around, it will be difficult,' Reus told ZDF after the game.
'It's always the same mistakes that we make. It absolutely stinks!'
Interim boss Edin Terzic also outlined his anger at how easy his side had made things for their opponents after initially taking the lead.
'The effort we had to put in to score a goal was significantly higher than it was for Gladbach,' he told DAZN.
'We've now conceded simple goals in the last three games. It's a shame and bitterly disappointing when you play a good attacking game and then you can't finish the job in defence.'
Dortmund started the year with back-to-back victories against Wolfsburg and RB Leipzig but have taken just one point from their last three fixtures.
They have conceded 26 goals this season which is only more than Bayern who have conceded 25.
However, second placed Leipzig are 12 goals better off having conceded 14 while Bayer Leverkusen have conceded 17 times.

Brah coming from a Liverpool fan 😂 klopp should read this
If only Bruno Fernandez hs an injury you'll be relegated. if the number of points deducted from Liverpool unjustly are done to united you'll be out of top 4, if the points given to united that shouldn't have been because of wrong decisions are counted you'd be in 11th. that Klopp has managed all the injustice and injuries and is still in 5th it's in itself a miracle. so don't brand the fact that blatant penalties are denied one and dubious ones given against him as complain.

Nah not really, lots of managers can accept a loss. So what's his excuse today?
salah didn't score a hat trick. Liverpool supporters and commentators always blame salah though firmino and mane is firing blanc

The only thing of joy they have, Halland will soon activate the departure clause that his agent inserted in his contract. Then, Dortmund will become a club struggling to avoid relegation.
We’re not going to turn into you guys 🤦♂️

He should be slamming the board to for hiring a Manager. There are a lot of good free agents manager out there, and Borussia Dortmund is just wasting time not choosing one. They will certainly make it out of the top 4 .

i think except Haaland nobody has the mentality to win or fight till the end even Reus is out of form, i dont know where this side is actualy heading to, we need a world class manager who could tell his management that trophies are more important than transfers

Our next manager has a lot of work to do

meunier gets beaten in defence all the time and loses the ball way to easy... more often than not he can't complete passes
