TFCRegina Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 "People were saying that Serbia was going to call me up. However, I talked to my Dad, talked to my manager down there and finally I told my dad I'd really like to play for Canada." http://www.rednationonline.ca/Borjan_grateful_for_opportunity_Canada_presents_january_24_11_article.shtml Wish every Canadian showed that dedication to their country.

Soju Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 "Canada helped my family so much and when we came here, they offered us everything. Jobs so you can live a good life - you start working and can give your family what they need. A chance for my sister and little brother to go to a good school and for me to finish school." "That's why I accepted to play for Canada. So we can say thank you in some way." I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamR Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I so hope that he becomes an international star and the poster boy for Canadian Soccer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bettermirror Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 My wife and father are of the same opinion as Milan re: loyalty to Canada. There are a few of these people out there who realize what this country has and can do - despite all of our well-known warts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Great piece. It's nice to read such a positive story leading up to the Gold Cup and Qualifying for 2014. Just curious (and sorry for my ignorance) but where does Milan fit on the goalie depth chart for the National Team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Great piece. It's nice to read such a positive story leading up to the Gold Cup and Qualifying for 2014. Just curious (and sorry for my ignorance) but where does Milan fit on the goalie depth chart for the National Team? Without even seeing him play, I'll say he`s directly behind Lars for the starting job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackdude Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 ^This. He could even challenge Lars for the starting job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Class guy. A bit like the anti-Begovic Love the part where he talks about how Canada gave him everything and he doesn't want to turn his back on that. Really wish we had more guys like this.

It really takes a rare breed to care this much about our country. I know a lot of 3rd and 4th Canadians of multiple backgrounds who'd ditch to play for a major country over Canada, and Serbia is major...at least compared to us.
