Kick Off | On the Spot: Neven Subotic

He is a true cosmopolitan. Born in Bosnia,Neven Subotic started his football in Florida. After playing for Mainz he followed his coach Jürgen Klopp to Dortmund. As a defender he is known for his offensive skills.

And that man is Neven Subotic. Dortmund's 20-year-old central defender is one of the best in the league. He was born in Bosnia and grew up in southern Germany and Florida. He's been a revelation in his first season in the Bundesliga -- at the back as well as up front.

Hope Man Utd sign him. Subotic & Vidic, raw Serbian power.

[iamtheVitor]

What a great guy he seems to be. I hope he will come to Arsenal now that Zapata seems to be out of the question.

@DaPhils He wouldn't be the same player he is today. It's nice that he says that he learned some of the mental parts of the game here in the states. At least that's something that we can claim we helped him with.

@everyone else saying he's Bosnian and not Serbian, he is what he thinks he is. Whether you accept what he thinks is irrelevant.

@autonomo12 ROFL! You gotta be kidding! There is no such thing like Bosnian nationality. Neven Subotic is SERBIAN who was born in Bosnia as I'm Serbian living in Slovenia.

Neven had the opportunity to play for the national team of Germany and the United States, but opted for SERBIA.

EXCELLENT defender

He plays for BvB and I think is pretty tough to sign for my team(Bayern) , I like him,he is a very good defender , in some years would be same as Vidic(who knows maybe better). Borussia Dortmund must NOT sell him , with the other youngster(Hummels) will have the best defender duo in Bundesliga.

Sigh. Thanks for fucking this one up Rongen. How nice it would have been to see Subotic play for the US.

But hey! At least we got Gale Agbossoumonde coming up! One of the worst players on the worst team in the Swedish league!

[whoiszizou]

GO TO REAL MADRID

[gtlala27]

he should be on usa!!!!!



[shagrath37]

i fuckin hate assholes who click on the video just to fight/debate on religion, country & stuffs like that rather than the individual itself

[CBFHVP]

How the fuck can he be Bosnian?! He was born to Serbian parents in Banja Luka (Republika Srpska , not Bosnia), and plays for Serbia.

[hitmankanadiz13]

Lots of speculations about who Chelsea are going to buy next as a CB. I'd love to see him play side by side with Ivanovic.
