·Various Yugoslavs I've spoken with seem to think that Yugoslavia has a very good chance at winning Euro this year......I wonder if members in this lounge feel the same way.
Yes, Yugo is full of talent, but they have never won anything.....and, they seem to always choke when playing an important game.
When I was at the world cup in France, I read an interview with Croatia's coach in which he said that Yugoslavia suffered from something he termed "Balkan Syndrome", and he attributed this to their loss against Holland. Croatian fans whom I also met in France explained to me that Yugoslavia suffers from an inferiority complex which has historically prevented them from doing well at any International tournaments, despite having awesome players.
Has anybody heard of this before, and is their any truth to it?
