How would their National Team do if they were still around?

Would they have a World Cup or at least be making Quater Finals on a consistent basis?

they would be irrelevant due to constant infighting

this is my attempt at a undivided Yugo team. I don't know their players very well so I probably didn't pick the best atm
I also didn't pick the players of Yugo descent, whose ancestors fleed the war
Anyway their team looks solid, and Yugo would have a deep bench to pick players.
Definitively a top 5 team in Europe, way stronger than England

>pandev
>modric
>rakitic
>ivanovic
>dzeko
>matic
>kovacic
>oblak
>everyone else

they wouldn't have a world cup, but they would probably pass group stage at worst

...

With some promising youngsters

GK: Oblak/Subasic/Handanovic

LB: Kolarov/Obradovic(had a great season with Anderlecht)

CB:Ivanovic/Savic/Nastasic/Subotic/Maksimovic/Lovren

RB: Srna/Basta/Vrsaljko

CDM:Matic/Fejsa/Milinkovic-Savic

CM:Rakitic/Modric/Kovacic/Brozovic

LM:Tadic/Halilovic/Pjaca/Kostic

RM: Ljajic/Perisic/Kampl

ST: Mandzukic/Mitrovic/Jovetic/Ilicic/Kalinic

>Lovren
he's the biggest hole in our defense
>Srna
stopped playing
Corluka is honestly the best defender we have, but he's getting old, there are a number of younger ones, who knows how they'll end up

>Halelovic
no, the other 4 croats can take almost every position in the midfield
We have a lot of young midfielders who could play better than others, but they are also quite prone to end up shit in a few years

That's my 2 cents for the Croatian part, I have no idea how the other nationalities are

also Not infighting, but clans inside the team would arise and the coach would have problems of meeting nationality quotas (just as they had in the Yugo NT)

>I also didn't pick the players of Yugo descent, whose ancestors fleed the war

yes you did

Might be the best NT midfield in the world

I know about Srna but he is the best still active RB, Lovren would be 4th choice but still called and as of Halilovic i must admit I didn't follow him this year.

Which one?
I talk about guys like Pulisic or Ibrahimovic

Kolasinac?

kolasinac, pjanic and rakitic. they were born/grew up in and played for the youth teams in germany, luxembourg and switzerland

He means Yugos that don't play for yugo teams.

Everybody knew he'd be shit, he may have some talent, but he's completely fucked in the head. Just like Rebic and Livaja.
"Halildona"

Maaaan Rebic I was so rooting for that guy sad to see him turn shit

In basketball Serb would dominate. Football and handball would from Croats. In water polo there would be any competition.

agreed

THIS FUCKING THREAD

none of them would even play football due high standard Yugo had.

I can't even imagine our mentality and 1st world standard...its like Satan came to Earth

Add to that a bench including:
Subasic
Begovic
Vrsaljko
Kovacic
Lovren
Maksimovic
Fejsa
Badelj
Kalinic
Dzeko
Pjaca
Tadic

Semi-final tier squad right there

Imagine volleyball, basketball, handball and waterpolo. It would not be fair

Basketball
Teodosic/Dragic
Bogdanovic Bogdan/Doncic
Bogdanovic Bojan/Saric
Jokic/Bender
Vucevic/Marjanovic

>no Nurkic

My bad forgot about him

Tri kosarkaske ekipe mogu da se sastave od exyu igraca.

we would beat the American steroids

>waterpolo
Is it like a serious sport there in your region? Redpill me on waterpolo, please

>serious sport
Not really. We have our own special sports

Waterpolo is big in the Balkans. It's a tough sport seen as very manly and there is a lot of pride in winning matches against rivals.

Why don't you guys just reform Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia again?

I see this thread pretty often and it's always started by an american or leaf
diaspora or LARPers?

we are doing fine alone, fuck off

hmm I wonder why...

My knowledge of meme eastern europe sports is limited to those bike races in dirt oval tracks with ultras and all that.

Well, that was unexpected

Orthodox team, Muslim team, gypsy team, Jewish overlords. Fucking glorious

why does this Albanian guy proxy post with that offensive flag. Not cool

>bike races in dirt oval tracks with ultras
Speedway is based, too bad only Scandinavians and eastern Europeans seem to like it
