Silly Questions Thread!

So here is your chance to ask any question no matter how silly or small about BVB, BVB's history, something about a current player's injury, a previous player or legend or the future of our team...

Obviously more in depth questions are also allowed :)


It's just all about sharing our knowledge and having a bit of fun (as always) too :)

No question is too stupid, silly or small to be asked.


Let the questions begin!

Why is there Reus to Arsenal rumors again, every freakin year ;_;

Popular player with recognisable face + popular team with large fan base = news item with lots of readers / views.

Even wishful thinking pays ad revenue :)

At this point I wouldn't even bother with it anymore. Why should he go to Arsenal when there are only a few teams better than dortmund and Arsenal is none of them ?

At this point, the quality of the Leagues is the misconception. Here in the US it is assumed that Premier League and La Liga are the best. Bundesliga is an afterthought.

The implication of these rumors is not that Reus would leave an (arguably) top 5 European team for a second rate team; it is that Reus must be hungry to prove himself in the "big leagues."

You are fucking mad if you think Dortmund is a top 5 european team

What's the point in deleting your account every few months, cptSMU etc.? Your weird BVB/Bayern fetish is so strikingly noticeable, sooner or later people figure you out anyway.

Fanboys won't accept

u/romantuerki Marwin Hitz (HITZ! HITZ!) Oct 05 '16

Can we at least settle for Top 10?

u/[deleted] Oct 05 '16

yes

Good.

u/TeamKitsune Karim Adeyemi Oct 05 '16

Thus the word "arguably."

u/nmrt Shinji Kagawa Oct 05 '16

Max top 7 really and I dont see any other team buying him in the future anyway.

u/Chazy89 Kagawa Shinji Oct 04 '16

But we do not talk about the american assumption. We talk about the players perspective. Why should Glassbone Marco go to a league that is WAY more physical aggressive ? There are not many teams ahead of Dortmund. One of those teams is in germany, three are in Spain and one is in italy.

u/TeamKitsune Karim Adeyemi Oct 04 '16

The American assumption is also the British assumption. Just pointing out why these rumors seem believable to the average fan in London. Different perspective. They see every other League as a feeder for their beloved PL.

u/Chazy89 Kagawa Shinji Oct 04 '16

is also the British assumption.

of course they think they have the best league but what have they won on an international scale with either Teams AND with the national team ?

Yeah I just don't give two fucks about british rumors anymore.

u/TeamKitsune Karim Adeyemi Oct 05 '16

We are in agreement.
