Over the years, plenty of fans have wondered what a Great Britain football team would be like and exactly how well would we do.

Even if Gareth Bale is perhaps the only absolute stone-wall addition to what would essentially be an England side, the likes of Aaron Ramsey and Oliver Burke provide some interesting options for GB, potentially.

There are some interesting 'what ifs' in the world, but one that doesn't get that much attention is the possibility that Yugoslavia never disbanded.

For those of you wondering, Yugoslavia was a country formed in the First World War in 1918. Its eventual demise in 2003 was a result of the ‘Yugoslav Wars’ from 1991-99, which started the slow process of its six constituents breaking free and declaring independence.

First of the six to break free was Croatia and Slovenia in June 1991, then Macedonia a few months later, Bosnia & Herzegovina then escaped in March 92’ before the remaining two constitutes, Serbia and Montenegro, finally departed united in 2003, before going their separate ways three years later. Sounds very boy-bandish doesn’t it? I think that would make Robbie Williams Croatia.

So, what kind of team would they have today if they had remained Yugoslavia? A very good one is the answer.

Amir Begovic (Chelsea) - The 29-year-old might be behind Thibaut Courtois at Chelsea, but he is the vice-captain for Bosnia and made a real name for himself at Stoke before moving to Stamford Bridge. He has 54 caps for Bosnia.

Branislav Ivanovic (Zenit St Petersburg) - The long-serving former Chelsea man was one of the strongest defenders in the Premier League during his nine years with Chelsea. Now 33, he has 92 caps for Serbia.

Stefan Savic (Atletico Madrid) - Savic did not set the world alight during his time with Manchester City, but via a spell with Fiorentina, he has found his feet again as part of the air-tight defence of Atletico Madrid. He has 41 caps for Montenegro.

Aleksander Kolarov (Manchester City) - Pep Guardiola has used the Serbian full-back far more than most expected this season, including a stint at centre-back. Make no mistake, he has one of the most deadly left pegs in the world. Has 66 caps.

Luka Modric (Real Madrid) - The former Spurs playmaker is certainly one of the best centre midfielders in the world today. He can do just about everything and is the heartbeat of the heavyweight Real Madrid side. 95 caps for Croatia.

Ivan Perisic (Inter Milan) - The silky Croatian made his name at Wolfsburg before securing a big money move to Inter, but he really announced himself with some impressive displays at the 2014 World Cup. Really does have tremendous feet and now has 55 caps.

Miralem Prjanic (Juventus) - When Paul Pogba left, Juve decided to purchase this Bosnian playmaker from Roma and the 26-year-old has fitted in nicely. Like Modric, Prjanic is extremely gifted with the ball at his feet and adds to the technical supremacy of this midfield. 73 caps to his name.

Nemanja Matic (Chelsea) - And now for the steel. N'Golo Kante has won all the plaudits for Chelsea this season, but his midfielder partner, Matic, has been a pillar of strength alongside him. He's the enforcer of this side. 30 caps for Serbia. 

Ivan Rakitic (Barcelona) - The former Sevilla man has become an important cog in the Barcelona side and effortlessly links the play from midfield to the fabled MSN forward line. Caps off a wonderful midfield and he has appeared 82 times for Croatia.

Mario Mandzukic (Juventus) - The big Croatian has scored goals for clubs like Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid and Juventus and that's a direct indication of the pedigree he has. He also has 29 goals in 74 caps and is a pest for every defence he faces.

Edin Dzeko (AS Roma) - The former Manchester City forward has been banging them in this season and has 21 goals in 29 games in Serie A. The Bosnian also has 49 goals in 83 games at international and is a proven goalscorer across the board.

Stevan Jovetic (Sevilla on-loan from Inter Milan) - The talented forward has played for Manchester City, Inter Milan and now Sevilla during his career and is certainly a technical talent. Injuries have held him back, but 19 goals in 44 internationals for Montenegro shows exactly what he can do.
