    Doubt it. Bosnia has a deeper team at the moment and a more experienced team. We do really well against teams such as Greece and Slovakia.

    We go directly this time.

    Greece have a new crop of NT players, a new generation. Ours is battle tested and I think thats going to decide it since we have a few new players as well.

    We play well against teams like Greece.

    I don't know who will get first, but it will be a fight for first place between Greece and Bosnia. Slovakia a sort of black horse in the race, the others don't have much of a chance.

    Spahic and Misimovic will be back I'm going to predict.

    That means Rahimic, Papac out.


    Begovic
    Mujdza Spahic Hadzic Lulic
    Zahirovic Medunjanin
    Pjanic Misimovic Visca
    Dzeko​

    I'm pretty sure this is ours to lose. We have the best squad. But we will need more composure under pressure - and these tragic playoffs must bring that about, It is time to mature as an NT and this is the right group to do it in.

    I'm certain Spahic remains, and almost certain Miske does the same. I'm sure by next season we will have 2-3 new breakthrough players as we did last couple of seasons and we will be even stronger.
    I think tactics killed us.
    First the catastrophically defensive second half in Paris after owning the French in their back yard in the first half.
    Then the so-so Zenica game, before the complete cluelessness of the Luz.

    How much you guys wanna bet that for the first time ever we have an easy group, we're going to go into an unpredictable slump and start losing matches and finishing third under Greece & Slovakia.

    I swear on everything if we don't qualify from such a group, I'm done with football forever.

    Same here.

    BTW, from all the nations (except Germany), Brazil is easily the most attractive venue. If Bosnia qualifies... that would be the best World Cup ever.

    Dude I'm sick of scrubs like Maletic and Mravac, and old farts like Rahimic and Jahic. Its time for a new generation, its time to give talents like Visca, Hadzic, Cocalic, and Besic a damn chance.

    Nobody is saying start the young players, all I'm saying is that the skill and talent difference between our young players and talents and the scrubs and veterans is hugely outweighed.

    Could Cocalic have saved our 2012 campaign if he was given a chance? I'm giving up on Bosnian football if he isn't even given a chance for the 2014 campaign.

    Maybe we need to change the shape of our formation as well?

    How about this:

    --------Begovic------------

    --Mujdza----Spahic----Cocalic-----Subasic--

    ------------Hadzic-----------------------------

    -----------Salihovic-------------------------

    --Pjanic---------Medo-----------------Lulic---

    ------------Dzeko------------------------------

    so

    I'm sick of the 2 DM BS too.. 1 DM with a CM that connects between the wingers and the AM is what we need. That means Hadzic as the lone DM and maybe Sejo as the CM that moves between the two lines?

    I hope Papac sticks around for the WC campaign. We really do need him. Vitez, what makes you think he won't?
