After already being relegated in the 2024/2025 season of the EFL Championship, the bleak, early signs are that Plymouth Argyle are in danger of suffering a double relegation.

The Pilgrims have conceded an incredible 28 goals in just 16 games, which is the most in the league by three.

Manager Tom Cleverley has overseen 12 losses since being appointed in July 2025.

There is one shining light in Argyle’s season so far that is keeping their hopes of staying up alive in the form of Lorent Tolaj.

Tolaj joined Plymouth in the summer, making a €1.4m move from Port Vale after firing them to promotion from EFL League Two last season.

The striker made some headlines back in April for being the only player in England to match the 2025 output of Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah at that time.

Incredulously, Tolaj is now the joint top scorer in the English third tier with eight despite his team’s struggles.

To put into context just how fabulous Tolaj has been, he has scored 42% of Argyle’s goals the entire season.

The level of confidence at which he is currently operating doesn’t have the look or feel of a player with such a huge responsibility of saving a club from a second relegation on the bounce.

Looking back at the start of the 2025/2026 Bundesliga campaign, it seemed as if the season had already derailed for Borussia Mönchengladbach after just three matchdays.

After a hefty 0-4 loss at home against Werder Bremen, manager Geroardo Seoane was relieved from his duties and Eugen Polanski was named interim boss for the next couple of games.

After taking over, Polanski, a former Bundesliga midfielder and Poland international, didn’t immediately look like a permanent solution for the club.

Even with their new manager, the team continued their winless streak for five more games, losing to FC Bayern and trailing by five at half-time at home to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Off the pitch, even more chaos ensued, with CSO Roland Virkus stepping down after the bad start to the season and an eventful summer break, which saw him earn the ironic nickname „Don Rollo“ in Germany, because midfielder Florian Neuhaus drunkenly badmouthed his boss on his vacation to Mallorca.

Still winless after October, things turned around in November for the club.

Eugen Polanski managed his team to three straight convincing wins, regaining form and slowly climbing out of the hole they’d found themselves in just a couple of weeks back.

In this Borussia Mönchengladbach tactical analysis, we will take a look at what tactical changes Eugen Polanski made to turn things around, how he uses his players to the best of their abilities and what we can expect from his tactics and team going forward in the season.
