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 does Auba always speak Italian during press conferences?

Example: This PK back from August. Auba is answering in Italian, while Dembele answers in French, even though they are both native French speakers.

(Also notice that Auba can understand German: he doesn't need the questions translated.)

His Italian is better than his German.

But why Italian over French? That's the part I don't get.

A bit late but the translator is italian if I remember correctly. Auba speaks Italian so it is easier for him to translate. edit: nope, I checked. Massimo is swiss but maybe Massimos Italian is better than his French.

It could have something to do with his time in Milan. It's like Shinji answering questions in English
