being bored and with no football until Friday I thought to myself: what if somehow Tito never died, Milosevic and the Serbian Academy accepted federalism, and we still had the Yugoslavian National Team?

here's off the top of my head the current players from each of the old SRs (and a Special Autonomous Region) that would get a look in today

Slovenia: Jan Oblak, Josip Ilicic, Kevin Kampl
Bosnia and Herzegovina: Edin Dzeko, Miralem Pjanic, Sead Kolasinac, Asmir Begovic, Muhamad Besic
Montenegro: Stevan Jovetic, Stefan Savic
Croatia: Sime Vrsaljko, Daniel Subasic, Dejan Lovren, Ivan Perisic, Ivan Rakitic, Mateo Kovacic, Luka Modric, Marcelo Brozovic, Mario Mandzukic, Andrej Kramaric, Marko Rog, Marko Pjaca, Ivan Strinic
Serbia: Aleksandr Kolarov, Branislav Ivanovic, Dusan Tadic, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Nemanja Matic, Adem Ljalic, Aleksandr Mitrovic
Macedonia: Blerim Dzemaili
Autonomous Province of Kosovo: Adnan Januzaj, Granit Xhaka, Xherdan Shaqiri, Valon Behrami

I hope it comes out that Russia were, indeed, doping. So that not only would they be outed as cheats, but also show that they couldnt even win when cheating.

They're perfecting their subtle doping techniques. Just going out and doping to the tits to win everything is too obvious--- gotta ease it in. Settle for quarter finals when this team wouldn't' have even gotten out of the group stages.
