Leaving that aside, I understand where old Ivan is coming from but he’s got to realize a lot of players worldwide have the same experience and don’t necessarily rant and hold it against their national team the program.

Do you have the particulars on that because I don't recall them. And were they the domineering factors in him playing for TFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadenge Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 There are loads of players that were cut by Cdn based club teams, were not signed to their academies or didn't rep Cdn youth teams until much later and still wanted to wear Cdn red....Kaye, Corbeanu, Millar, Johnston, DSC, Ayo etc. Larin's first youth appearance was for U20s and ironically during the MLS draft where he was the 1st pick. narduch and Kent 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few interviews where he credits that with giving him the skills necessary to be a professional. TFCA tries to take credit but the truth is he played in the CSL for the better part of the year for another team, they saw him and scooped him. Then, he was playing with the first team within 6 months. narduch and Kent 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cav was one, I think Grant and the other guy was Ferriega (sp?) if my memory serves correctly. Cav stayed the longest. johnyb and narduch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoppage Time Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Still hoping to see Mitrovic at this CMNT camp. Hope he has been invited to get to know the squad. Any news, Ivan (Stefan's dad)? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it was closer to 3 or more. He’s quoted in interviews as being key to his development.

I don't think we overthink this one, just like Jebbison with England, we all knew he was involved with Serbia's youth set up. Sure it's not the same pedigree as England's, but until it's involving a senior call up this is nothing to get worked up over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corazon Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 That post is entirely pertaining to him currently playing with Serbia U21 National Team. It has nothing to do with committing to the Serbian Men's National team. It is no different than what Flores does for Mexico U20 or what Eustaquio was doing with Portugal U21's. Has anyone taken a look at the Serbian National Team roster lately? Perhaps Serbia will try and do what Romania did with Sali. But that midfield consists of top quality players who play for Ajax, Sevilla, Frankfurt, Benfica, Lazio, Porto, Valencia etc. It would be incredibly bold of him to commit to the men's Serbia National Team at this point. He's young and still lots of potential to grow but he's still got a very long way from breaking through with the senior national team.
