Talk:Bosnia and Herzegovina national football team
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Ethnic makeup
Do Bosnian Serb players play on this team? Or is it drawn exclusively from the Federation? --Jfruh 13:32, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure that all should play, it's not limited to entities, it's the country team. How the turnout is from RS, that's probably a different story. --Joy [shallot] 16:26, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)

- Yeah, I was thinking more in terms of how things work in practice -- I know that theoretically its a nationwide team. If there were solid data one way or the other it would be an insight into daily life in the country. I do note that the Bosnian premiership includes teams in the RS. --Jfruh 18:27, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)

- I've found a list of players in yesterday's newspapers and posted it in the article. There are a handful of names that look like Serbian, so it looks like things are improving. --Joy [shallot] 14:23, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)

- Here's a list of the players and their nationality:
Serb:
Milenkovic, Barbarez is (1/2 Serb, 1/2 Bosniak), Misimovic, Grujic, Bajic
Croat:
Juric Vidic Hrgovic Blatnjak Grlic Papac
Bosniak:
Hasagic Biscevic Salihamidzic Bolic Baljic Bajramovic Music Beslija Spahic Halilovic Tolja
I forgot to mention that Blaz Sliskovic, the head Coach, and the assisting coach Vlatko Glavas are Croats. And the head of the Football Association is Serb.
Sergej Barbarez is an Ukrainian, not Serb.
