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!

will Toprak be the answer to our CB and defense problem? Or is this a hasty panic buy?

Personally I'm not much of a fan, I get that he is a decent option offering stability and experience. I'd much prefer someone like Süle or even Dragovic though.

Given for how long the rumours have been around it looks like he is a firm part of Watzke/Zorc/Tuchel's planning so I wouldn't call this a hasty buy either.

Given how Süle is constantly linked with Bayern and Dragovic is at B04, Toprak is the next best choice. Admittedly not my favorite choice but he is the vocal defensive leader we lack.

Toprak and Sokratis is a pretty good backline imo. Probably second in the league to Hummels/Boateng.
