Kevin Stöger and Borussia’s disastrous start: hope still alive

Kevin Stöger knows the worry inside out after a rough run for Borussia Mönchengladbach: the club has opened the Bundesliga season with six straight losses, making it the fourth team ever to start like this, as kicker notes.

Even with a “hat-trick” style collapse in those early matches, the message from Gladbach is that the situation isn’t automatically fatal. With six defeats already in the ledger, the squad’s takeaway is that there is still room to react and turn the season around.
