It was most likely because of an EU passport, I also heard that some Croatian player wants Slovenian citizenship, I think he was a captain for young Croatian NT, and he plays for some English team, do you know anything about him?
I don't know why. I guess i wanted to add smiley with smile ( ) but i mistakenly added this one ( ) Since : and ; are very close to each other on keyboard you can say it was unintentional.
(i'm eating my pack of skittles and drinking some tea right now if you wonder why i put that smile..)
