Can not wait to see them play in Russia live. Saw them play for the qualifiers, some live as well. Something was lacking, but with the addition of Milinkovic for creativity I am sure atleast the tactics will not be dull.

That's a very solid looking team. I didn't follow them in qualifying so I'll be interested to see how they do.

They will get out of their group. No idea why everyone thinks they're gonna finish last

Only 2 out of the 23 players have names that don't end in "ic", that must be a very popular last name ending

Very good team, especially midfield Matic - SMS - Milivojevic. Hope Radonjic gets some playing time, very talented player, lighting fast.

For me they're 2nd favorites to get our with Brazil. Don't know why people overlook them, especially the idiots at ESPN, all of them have Costa Rica going through without even making a case for Serbia.

I just realized Serbia and their fans will not have to travel far to the World Cup. Would like to see how Brazil and Costa Rica deal with what will almost certainly be a Serbian partisan atmosphere in the World Cup.

The only notable absence is Matija Nastasic, smart move if he’s not completely fit- hope he heals well. Excited to see Veljkovic and Milenkovic get a chance to shine.
