#2 The resurgence of Marco Reus
One big reason why Borussia Dortmund has been as impressive as it has is that captain Marco Reus is fit and is playing some of his best football. The German missed almost seven months of football last season when he was nursing a cruciate ligament rupture followed by a muscular problem. But this season, he seems to have returned to top form!
Reus made only 15 appearances last Season owing to his injury but still managed to score 7 Goals last Season, just showing how much quality he has. This season, Reus has emerged as the club's top goalscorer with 11 goals in all competitions and has assisted another 4 goals.
His form has been key to the way Dortmund have performed in the past and Reus will need to play a big role if Dortmund is to win any silverware in this Season.
