Can you come up with a better argument for why he should play than the clubs he has played at? He had a moment or two yesterday but overall was pretty ineffective playing as a 10 (and we have a very good traditional no. 10 in Singh), and our midfield looked a lot better without him playing as a 6.
Does anyone actually watch him at club level? I've never seen a club game of his, would be interested to know what position he primarily plays.

I’ve watched probably 50% of Marko’s club games over his career, grabbing highlights of the rest.
Rufer and Bell are great, Rufer really staked a claim against the USA and I’d like to see him get more starts (and an overseas move, can’t lie). However, Stamenic is in a completely different universe right now in all facets - skill, athleticism, age, high-level experience. No offense meant at all - but I was a bit stunned to see the suggestion that he wouldn’t be ready to start at the 2026 WC! I think he always shows up for the national team and was one of our best players against the USA.
He primarily played as a DM at club level, but had his moments playing in a double pivot at Red Star where he really grew into the box-to-box role come the end of the season. Defo not a Singh shoe-in, he’s so unique
