Sušić Picks Squad for Qatar Friendly
No Comments »
Safet Sušić revealed his call-ups today for the upcoming August 10th friendly with Qatar. It’s a conservative squad, virtually identical to the one called up against Sweden and Germany. The only real decision of note involves Džemal Berberović and Semir Štilić. Berberović announced yesterday that he was retiring from international football, but Sušić went ahead and included him in the squad anyway. Then, presumably after talking with Berberović, Sušić ultimately dropped him in favor of Štilić. More below the fold.

Comments(1)
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

Germany Preview / Sweden Post-Mortem
Comments(3)
Well that didn’t go too well. Far from the potential victory I had announced, Bosnia played arguably the worst 45 minutes of football in its recent history in the second half and lost to Sweden 4-2. The loss is not a reflection of our individual talent, however, but of some fatal tactical ... [read more]

Zlatan Ibrahimovic Must Look Like He Needs a Hug
If we were to list the most huggable players in world football, I doubt Zlatan Ibrahimovic would figure highly. The big talented Swede seems much more aloof than he approachable. Also, have you ever tried hugging someone who's 6'5"? A fan at last night's Valarenga vs Barcelona pre-season friendly was ...

Man City and The Second Coming, Part II
Following the borderline blasphemous news this morning that Man City signed Jesus Christ himself, The Offside can exclusively reveal that He's already been there. At least on television. The above clip is from the 2003 ITV mini-series The Second Coming, starring Christopher Ecclestone as Jesus Christ. Here's the setting: The Messiah ...
