In his second term as head coach of Borussia Dortmund, Edin Terzic rests high hopes. It remains to be seen whether he can meet expectations at BVB. His current mission is more difficult than that in the second half of 2020/2021.

Officially, Edin Terzic at Borussia Dortmund acted as a technical director last year, a position that had been created last summer for the acclaimed and tied ex-interim coach. The 39-year-old was actually a shadow man.
Whenever it didn't go at BVB under Marco Rose, and that was often the case in a disappointing season, the name Terzic was haunted by the media and environment.
"Explosive Mixing" at BVB
This was an "explosive mix", judge President Uli Hoeneß from FC Bayern in the RTL/NTV interview. Watzke also knew that.
The fact that Rose had to take a hat on the last week after the season analysis with the Dortmund "Elephant Round" "Elefante round" managing director Hans-Joachim Watzke, the outgoing Terzics director Michael Zorc, his successor Sebastian Kehl and consultant Matthias Sammer-Seinen and was replaced by Terzic It was "not surprising" for him, Hoeneß said.
At BVB, great hopes are now resting on Terzic. The new chief coach not only knows the club, environment and a large part of the team, but also "about the set screws that we want to turn on to be able to offer our fans of successful football," said Kehl.
"Halboter" BVB by Edin Terzic "brought to life"
Terzic himself laid this high bar in his first intermezzo on the BVB Bank from December 2020 as an interim successor to Lucien Favre.
Borussia won the last seven Bundesliga games under his direction after a bumpy start and thus moved into the Champions League as the third in the table. In addition, with a brilliant 4: 1 final victory against RB Leipzig in the DFB Cup, the first big title win since 2017.
At the end of the season, Watzke stated "Halbot" at the time of the season was separated at "Sky". Terzic "brought her to life".
important success factors are missing from BVB
However, the native of Sauerland is now missing two of the most important Terzicing success factors from back then, who wore BVB with its individual class in less strong phases: Jadon Sancho and Erling Haaland.
Sancho left Borussia towards Manchester United as early as 2020. Haaland will be moving to Manchester City for the coming season.
Instead, Terzic will work in the offensive area with newcomer Karim Adeyemi, who brings great talent in a top league, as well as a Mister X in the middle storm. So far, BVB has not (yet) obliged a successor to Haaland.

Terzic's skills as a motivator with a black and yellow heart are also undisputed. However, he still has to prove the proof of being able to success in the long term.
As a reminder: Before his first term in Dortmund, Terzic had never worked as a head coach in the professional sector. Now he has a three-year contract with BVB.
And the construction sites are large. The team under Rose conceded 52 goals in the expired Bundesliga season-far too many for their own demands.
To stabilize the defensive as a whole and to integrate Niklas Süle and Nico Schlotterbeck, which he co-answered as a technical director, in central defense as well as Salih Özcan in defensive midfield, which are quite tricky tasks for Terzic.
He will also have to fill the Haaland vacuum. In 2021/2022, due to his numerous injuries, "only" 22 of the 85 goals in the league went into the Norwegian's account. In games without Haaland, BVB often presented itself stubborn and uninspired in the offensive game.
BVB: "Great support of the fans" for Edin Terzic
After all: The Terzic obligation counteracts the straining alienation from your own supporters for the time being. The old acquaintance on the sidelines will "have the great support of the fans", predicted Uli Hoeneß.
Pictures like after the bitter 3: 4 home bankruptcy against VfL Bochum, when the BVB stars were loudly whistled and even insulted by their own fans, should be part of the past in Dortmund.
Because Terzic will also have to deliver results in order to prevent emerging unrest. This time there is no shadow man, this is good news for the new coach.
