In Borussia Dortmund's 5-0 win over VfB Stuttgart, almost all field players delivered outstanding performances: Moukoko, Süle and Raphael Guerreiro scored two goals, Reyna scored his first goal in almost a year and a half and Julian Brandt also delivered a brilliant performance. In the foreground, however, is once again Jude Bellingham, with whom everyone involved is now running out of superlatives.

In addition to his two goals, the only 19-year-old England international also delivered a flawless defensive performance, which BVB coach Edin Terzic also had to emphasize on the PK after the game: “Jude won a lot of balls for us and kept pressing good follow-up. It's extraordinary to be able to play football so consistently at your age."

BVB sports director Sebastian Kehl found similar words (via Ruhrnachrichten): "For us, Jude was the one who steers the game in the right direction. He also had a good effect on the team. So he is incredibly valuable for us."

The fact that Bellingham is important for BVB is now also reflected in his statistics: The dynamic midfielder was able to contribute eight goals and two assists in 17 competitive games. If he continues like this, he will probably be hard to keep next summer.
