The general director of Schalke in Gelsenkirchen, Horst Heldt, believes that Borussia Dortmund will manage to climb out of the Bundesliga relegation zone. Despite only finishing behind Bayern Munich last season, Jurgen Klopp's players are currently at the bottom and trailing Bayern by 23 points. According to Heldt, injuries are mostly to blame for their troubles. "I'm not worried about them because Borussia Dortmund will sort it out. They are capable of doing so," the director told Der Westen. "Jurgen Klopp is one of the best coaches in Germany." "The current position in the table, in my opinion, is only temporary. Looking from the outside, it seems like our neighbors have the same problems as us. There is a long list of injured players." "If Marco Reus is missing, of course, it's difficult to come to terms with that. In football, things happen that you can't predict." "In 2011, for example, Schalke won the national cup, but only finished fourteenth in the Bundesliga." This Saturday, BvB will face Hoffenheim in the German league, while the Gelsenkirchen club will face Stuttgart.
