I would be surprised if he doesn't deliver. Imo he was the most important player for Dortmund last season when they broke the all time record for most points taken in one season in the Bundesliga and didn't suffer a single loss for 28 games.
He did some amazing goals and especially assists, just look at the pass at 1:22

Liverpool agreed an £11 million deal to sign Fabio Borini from Roma last night as Craig Bellamy moved close to leaving the club. The Wales forward’s nomadic career looks set to take another turn with Queens Park Rangers and Cardiff City vying to sign him. The clubs have been encouraged that Liverpool, who want to trim their wage bill, will allow Bellamy to leave with one year left on his deal, worth £80,000 a week.
Mark Hughes, the QPR manager, has twice signed the 32-year-old in his career and the forward also spent a season on loan at his home-town club, Cardiff, in 2010-11. Bellamy, who is keen to return to South Wales, rejoined Liverpool last summer and scored six goals in 27 league appearances.
Borini, 21, will be reunited with Brendan Rodgers, under whom he played at Chelsea and Swansea City. He scored ten times last season for the Italian club. Rodgers, the Liverpool manager, has pleaded with Maxi Rodríguez to remain at the club and for fans to show patience with Jordan Henderson. Rodríguez, the midfield player, has been offered a deal by Newell’s Old Boys in his native Argentina.

Patience is required with Jordan Henderson, he has a lot of potential and is learning from one of the very best CAM in the game.
Will be happy for Bellamy if he gets to go back to Cardiff, he loves it down there and could really make a difference to their team. He's had a tough season with the loss of his close friend Gary Speed yet still gave his all when he played.

The Italian club could use the funds to try to sign Robin van Persie, the Arsenal striker, or Edin Dzeko, who plays for Manchester City. “Yes, I have sold Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva to PSG,” Silvio Berlusconi, the Milan president, said.
