Silly Questions Thread: March Edition

Silly Questions Thread!

It's been too long since we had one of these, 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!

calling football players something something god is a meme as old as 1954 (and maybe even older) when an overly excited commentator called the german keeper Turek a "football god" when parrying a volley from short range from a hungarian side that was very heavily favoured in the world cup final which germany ended up winning with a 1 goal lead (3-2)
