Borussia Dortmund's Bosnian-American Neven Subotic was named to La Gazzetta Dello Sport's European Best 11 today after another strong performance this weekend. ...

Subotic is also one of three finalists for the Bundesliga Player of the Month, ...

Questions still remain in what country Subotic will play for since he is eligible to play for the USA (of which he is a citizen), Bosnia, Serbia, and even possibly Germany. Dortmund teammate Sebastain Kehl has been advocating that Subotic be brought into the German team and when asked by Kicker yesterday, Subotic remarked that "I can play for several countries, maybe Germany as well."



Lol...wtf dude should play for Bosina hes birth place or the USA(spent money on him to develop him and ha played for their youth system) not ****ing germany...wat a dumass

I agree, he should either play for Bosnia or the USA, but you know this is a sensitive issue. If he feels German and wants to play for them, then it's his choice. I started a thread about him in the German forum btw, super talent.

 

[zoric]

He's serb so he should represent Serbia, we'll see about that though.

 

[PartizanBeograd]

i dont mean to get into politics, but I cannot see him playing for the US after what they did too us.

In that case I think Adu should represent Ghana.

 

[Dmitriy]

Well, if the U.S. developed him then you know where I stand.

 

[spidey]

he is a ethnic bosnian serb therefore he should play for serbia..mostly muslims play for bosnia as most ethnic croats and serbs play fro croatia and serbia..

Well Germany done them same thing and he says he might play for Germany so i doubt he cares about the politics part. He should play for either Bosnia or the serbskies not Germany or USA

[Leinad]

he lived 11 of his 19 years in germany (all his childhood), plays football in germany, speaks perfect german and has even a german girl friend.
If he wants to play for germany he has really valid reasons.

 

[michaldinho]

such as the fact that they are better then the other nations listed

Most BS post I have seen yet. What's Misimovic, Papac, and our best ever yet IMO, Sergej Barbarez (there are a few more on the current squad that aren't muslim, but they aren't as big as these three).

You can't tell me that they aren't Bosnian, each of them could fit into the Serbian, or Croatian squads. Saying Serbs for Serbia, and Croats to Croatia even though they where born in BiH is a completely stupid statement. Some people take pride in where they where born. Even though Subotic has stated he doesn't want to play for us, it still makes the most sense for him to play for BiH or USA.

Pretty much.

I have the exact same situation myself. 16 of 21 years in Australia would make me perfectly eligible to play for them, despite seeing myself as an Englishman first and foremost.

Thanks for clarifying, he is born in his country of origin, and lived in the US for more then couple of years, but having spent bit more then half of his life in Germany is defenitely makes it more then a viable choice.

Some here (or really one individual) were making it sound like he just moved to Germany to start his pro career, and hence has no ties to Germany and is a totally footballing mercenary. Ridicolous.

 

[SAD ANDY]

No matter what he chooses now, he will be a traitor to the ones he did not choose.

 

[milos]

He is Serbian so he should play for Serbia.

 

[Abz]

He should be cut into pieces and equal portions given to those countries who feel they own a part of him.

 

[Giuliano81]

Looks like he got touched by Brazilian fever.

 

[LedZep]

He already played for USA's u-17 and u-20 :embarass: :howler:
