Am I right in thinking he played for three different national teams? Wikipedia says he won 102 caps (37 goals) for Serbia. But I think he played for Yugoslavia, then Serbia & Montenegro and then Serbia.
That goal by Savo and the rest in a wonderful victory https://twitter.com/avfchistory/status/1109829517152043015?s=12

It was just a marketing gimmick. Doug bullshitting to shift a few cheap head scarfs hey....who’d a thunk it.I think he ran out wearing it for the first game and chucked it in the crowd? Certainly can't remember him playing in it.

I liked him a lot. Was at Blackburn and was outraged but looking back we were giving the team all sorts of shit as they were losing 5-0. I'll cut him some slack.Just loved him as an icon, quirky, someone with a cult following.Boom boom boom....
I'd take Savo over Angel, but they were similar while with us, record signings, bags of talent, at times unplayable, other times they looked like they'd never score again.

Same I think. Savo was the better all round player. What didn't get noticed with him was the amount of good work he did around the area for the other players. Angel was the better out-and-out striker, at his best.
