Less than a year until the beginning of the World Cup will be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The Croatian football team will, if the elections placement, in that tournament, defend the World Bronze from Qatar and seek the third consecutive medal at the largest world football tournament.
Team Zlatka Dalić has opened the qualifications for the munddial in the best possible way. At first, with 7: 0 he declared Gibraltar away, and then he won the Czech Republic, the largest and most dangerous competitor with 5: 1. All projections give her over 90% chance of placement.
Even if until the end of the nasty kicks and does not win a group, Croatia will have a reserve chance in the playoffs.
The place is hunting in Dalić’s list
The primary rotation and base that makes up about 16 players Dalić has long ago, but at least five or six positions on the list for which a fierce struggle will be kept.
Index.hr singled out Player Set This season, which season they must prove to Dalic to go to the World Cup and saved its representative career.
Only those players were taken into account, which at one point career had a serious role in the national team or at least in continuity were invited, and in recent times they are Fire from the first plan Due to the problems in clubs, whether or not a weak minute, bad shape or injuries.
Goalkeeper
GoalkeeperAlthough it has a difficult situation in Fenerbahce which, according to Turkish media, wants to resolve it, it is difficult to expect to be expected to Dominiku Livakovic suffer the status in the national team. Ivica Ivušić and Dominik Kotarski have been a long time alternative, and the player who has the most to prove is Ivo Grbić.
Former goalkeeper Atletico Madrid and Lille spent last season on loan in Turkish Rizespor. The player is Sheffield United, but the English do not see him as the first goalkeeper and to return to the national team will probably find a new club. Grbić defended in the last and key qualifications for Qatar against Russia, but since then He did not play for Croatia.
Defense
Josip Stanišić has lately squeezed slightly Josipa Juranović From the position of the starting right back. Juranovic had a lot of herself a lot of injuries and missed 19 games in Bundesliga for Union, while Stanisic became starter in Bayern.
On the other side is Borna Sauce After the long soapbery, he found a new club. Ajax got rid of him, and Sosa, who was starter at the last SP, will look for his place in the fierce competition of the English first league Crystal Palace.
There was no one in the national team either Borne Barišić Which last season has played only 9 games for Trabzonspor. It is forwarded to loan in Las Palmas, which only took one meeting.
Martin Erlić One time was Starter near Dalic, but he fell into big problems with a bologian minimum, and he failed to transfer to Slovan from Bratislava. The second stop is waiting to pop up some younger player like Vušković or Prpić, and the excellent season could be returned to Hajdukov Filip Uremović.
Dalic praised the players of the river, especially allocated the former player wide
Binding line
Nikola Moro He was once one of the largest talents of the Croatian football, but he had been looking for a long time since he left Dinamo. He received ten minutes against the Czech Republic, but last season, only 11 primary matches in Bologna and is not a secret to search for a new club.
Lovro Majer and Nikola Vlašić They, each in his time, had a very serious status at Dalic, and the penalties also shot in Qatar. The Majer was the hardest in his career last season. Due to the injury, he played only nine games and should return a minute in Wolfsburg.
Vlašić is one of the most slowly found players of the national team. Although it is constantly playing in Turin and has a decent effect in Serie A, Dalić is began to omit from the list that was almost unthinkable that until recently. Another midfield looking for a return to the big door is Luka Ivanušec, who often played on the wing.
The former Dinamo player did not work in Feyenoord. He collapsed in Dinamo on his winter, the club was trying to resolve him, and in the end he would look for his happiness and return to the Dalic list in Greek Pay where he arrived on loan.
Attack
When it comes to central attackers, the competition has flowed down there lately. Beljo, whom Dinamo brought in four million euros (which can easily turn out six), played important matches in the Euro and good season in the SHNL would certainly be in the competition again.
Code Brune Petković is the greatest questionnaire health. It was indirectly pushed him out of Dinam, and earlier and from Dalic’s vision. If he manages to play a great season in Turkey, Dalic could take him to Munddial because he knows there is no other attacker of such characteristics, writes index.
Wide positions are those where Croatia is traditionally covered. Marko Pjaca, Which broke up with a dynamo, a new club should be found to give him an approximate satisfactory salary. Mislav Oršić After a long-lasting injury on the winter as a free player moved to Cypriot Paphos. He became a champion, but and there he is yet to be made for the place of the players of the game.
