Roger Allen3, I'm basically just trash myself.😬
Vance, you're actually better at spreading pessimism around here—keeps things balanced.😬
Maybe let some girl... I don't know, start a thread.😬

Someone wanna start a thread for Morocco? Who's up?

Pass. I won't be around for most of the games. Roger Allen3, you got any luck? This is huge now. Let whoever brings good vibes to the national team kick it off. : old D 2X:

Even if the test comes back negative, there’s no way they wrap this up in a single day. We won't be counting on David until the second round rolls around.
If that heavyweight is juicing, then everything can just go straight to hell.
Honestly, I think our friends from Spain are just trying to shake us up—to throw us off balance, as they say down in Miami. Screw them.😁

Jonathan Booth5 said:Anyway, what happened to that young prospect wing player? The one who gets injured during every single scrimmage? They used to call him the best player in the world.🤣
Why aren't we calling him up???
Or say, Senjanin Maglajlija could still pull off something. Or Sarač. Or Rac Tomljanović—anything just so Ivana can get some rest.
jebenti, how am I supposed to make it to Saturday😂

The winger’s got breathing issues through his nose, so he stays as the gold reserve. If Sprem gets hurt, he'll get the call later.
Honestly, I don't even know why Saracevic isn't in this national team. Let's just say, from reliable sources, Puc would actually show up if Lino asked.

Everyone completely forgot about Mikulica.🤣

Man, I'm losing it. I've got VIP tickets for every game but I actually need regular seats.🤣 🤣

Jonathan Booth5 said:So we're bringing Bošket Jović back into the mix 🤣
oh well, Kim is still young, he's got plenty of time left—one more championship won't kill him 😁

Jovic and Kljajic junior are coming back, while Nacinovic can't even get it together—man needs a wife and some kids.🤣

Not this tournament. We’ve got a massive surprise cooking for this year—can't say anything publicly yet without causing a meltdown, but just between us here on the forum: we're running a three-pivot attack.😁 😁

Jonathan Booth5 said:Who the hell even mentioned China? 🤣
Kim, Fojko, Kim.
And I see you guys are already arguing about who’s got the best defense in the league. Getting ready to act like total losers, aren't you? 🤣

"China" is what happens when you type too fast. Type slow, you get "Kim." 😁

Doesn't matter if we roll with Caleb or Vukic, as long as we get a real winger out there.
China might actually be the better call just to keep the locker room vibe right.

Roger Allen3 said:Word is Josip Valcic and Horvat are officially out, leaving us with 21 players. 16 starters and 4 subs...

what's the deal with Davor?🙂

We can manage without the rest, but without Davor (and maybe Vori), they aren't even close to being elite.🙂

Davor’s got Ahilov's heel; that's his only weakness.😁
Davor is definitely making the cut here.

Had to track this down:

frozentiger6 said:Goddammit.

I gotta do it, damn it.

😁 😁

frozentiger6 said:Foyer, no way am I letting you guys talk trash like that here. 😁

Look, this place is for class acts only. You won't find anyone here losing their mind and swearing at players just because they played poorly against Russia during the 2006 World Cup.😁 😁

frozentiger6 said:I think I've got better options than Buntic myself😁

Just get yourself to NYC and we'll find you a spot on the national team.
😁

silverstag19 said:Why didn't they just swap him out during the Euro when those guys from Canada took care of Metlicic? He played a few minutes then sat on the bench for the rest of the tournament.

Tada, Zernick was out in the cold, but things look a little different now.
Honestly, anyone would be a better call than Buntic.😁

That's my idea of a joke.👎 😁

Charles Young11 said:Is there an English site somewhere where I can actually read World Cup news? Everything being offered right now is stuck in German.

Germany 2007 works fine for me.😁

Charles Young11 said:And I don't get why Bunting wouldn't be dropped. I could play any other right winger on the bench, especially since he’s shown he's nowhere near being an actual player.

If we absolutely had to pick a backup for the matchup against Peru, Zarnic is a better shout at right wing than Bunting. At least the guy has some sense and won't just spray shots everywhere.😁>

frozentiger6 said:Basically, Cervar has already written off Josip Valcic and Horvat.

Now he’s got twenty-one national team players to work with, and Cervar is probably looking at a roster of either 20 or 18—he hasn't made up his mind yet.

Either way, watching them push Anusic is making my skin crawl.

The kid's alright, I guess.😁
I bet Somic is written off too, so that puts us at 20, or maybe 19 plus Sola.

frozentiger6 said:It’ll all work out. During preseason, Cervar focused strictly on defense, while Keta handles the offensive drills ( 🙄 )

As for Cervar—I’m not exactly his biggest fan—but the guy knows how to build a wall in front of the net. He even drew up the formation on a massive sheet of paper and hung it right in the middle of the gym just so they wouldn't forget the game plan. 😁

And Keta playing coach? God help us.

We can play offense without a coach anyway. Keta is basically just there for the vibes. Everyone knows who the real conductor, the improviser, the magician is... 😁

Defense is the foundation. Everything rests on that.

Just realized I haven't put any money on our team winning the title yet. 😁

Does he inspire confidence? Not really. Personally, I’d take Jerkovich’s flyers over this guy any day. Losert still needs a few days of actual, real training before he even starts, and I highly doubt he'll find his rhythm in time.
That's why the defense needs to adjust to the keeper. We should run a 5-1 setup and just allow long-range shots. A 3-2-1 formation is basically useless here—everyone knows exactly who they're targeting with that look anyway.

Finally caught Mirko in action yesterday. Honestly, I think he’s going to be our undisputed number one once Lozert gets back. Once he and the defense actually find their rhythm, we’re going to look even better.
