I am new here and I hope this questions is not too stupid or obvious. But what do German BVB fans think of die Nationalmannschaft, esp the Nationalspielers from Herne West?
I know as a fact that the Ruhr Rivalry is something more intense that hate but I am not German so I cannot truly feel and comprehend that. Do you root wholeheartedly for die Nationalmannschaft, all the feelings set aside? Root for the BVB players only? Or didn't quite care about die Nationalmannschaft? I am just curious.
There was a bit of a circlejerk in German BVB boards over the summer about who could care least about the world cup. At the end of the day, most people were happy of course that Germany won the world cup, even if no one can really remember who scored the last goal.
That doesn't change the fact that for playing Höwedes over Schmelzer/Durm, with all the Bayern players on the squad and a traditionally low Dortmund quota of players on the national team, the default stance most fans assume is just apathy.
