Great article, go Ismar!!
Excellent readings !
But as a fellow blogger from the “other side” of the front line in the battle for great talents, a Bosnian side ;-), I must express my sincere and deepest wish Ismar will succeed on of the best world strikers of last decade, Edin Džeko – and you know what that means 😉
Sincere congrats on great article, and sincere greetings from Sarajevo !
