I can't argue with Miloš Krasić and he's been a joy to watch this year with CSKA. I was at another match but had the Serbia - Lithuania match slinged to my handheld and then watched it after. They are showing tremendous attacking flourish but at a higher level of confidence in recent years. It is obviously "too soon" but I think the tide has turned. Now if only more will stay in the domestic league - I understand regarding choices and I was also wondering if Boško Janković would feature.

Perhaps Antić decides to put Jovanović up front and play Tošić on the left, with Krasić again on the right. There really are many alternatives and I'm never really able the guess Antić's starting formation 100% accurately, so excuse me if I miss completely. :) Have you watched the Serbia - Lithuania game? If yes, what do you think? Well, young Zoran Tošić migh get the chance to play, but after such a wonderful performance from Jovanović and Krasić, it wouldn’t be very wise do drop either of the two.

Hopefully we'll this echo in the domestic league as well. It was good to see Red Star's Nenad Milijas have a strong match against Lithuania. Do you think we'll see Zoran Tošić against Austria? He's an exciting young player that I hope stays at Partizan. Nikola – I couldn’t agree more regarding Serbia and I think things are finally turning.

Serbian team never really offered much chances for optimism to it's fans, but after the game against Lithuania (dubbed as the match of the decade), there is the aura of optimism and pride that is unparallelled in Serbia's recent football history (excluding the ever-popular U21's). The way they fought on the pitch was almost unbeleivable and that's why the victory against a relatively weak team like Lithuania caused so much media and fan attention - after so many years, Serbia started looking like a real, organized and extremely motivated national team. This is definetely going to be a fiery and interesting match, a make or break for both teams. I really can’t wait wednesday’s match.

I had no problems with watching the match but I'll pick up the regional broadcast and then "sling" it to me (i.e. handheld or laptop). It (quite) obviously wasn't a positive showing for Austria and a horrible two points to drop. Their problems were in creating scoring opportunities and lacking creativity in the midfield.
