The Secrets https://net.hr/sport/euro2020/dalic...joj-vili-b0007d00-e0e5-11eb-b4c2-e2e8762bbeeb The secret meeting in Novalja. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novalja Place: The mansion of Zlatko Dalic. He invited his reliable players, called as the senators. Luka Modrić, Ivan Perišić, Domagoj Vida, Mateo Kovačić and Šime Vrsaljko. So, what could other players might think? Kovacic was never in shape, until 2020. Vida was never good. Vrsaljko will be sold in Atletico Madrid. But these two create the team. So, Ante Rebic just said what we all think and he became removed from the team. Democracy. Talented young players must depend on them.
Eligible to play for the Netherlands, Suriname and Croatia,[4] Gullit has played for the Netherlands under-19 team.[5] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxim_Gullit Replacement for Vida.
Squad was called for the upcoming WC qualifying Games in Russia(away), Slovakia(away) and Slovenia(home). Some surprises like no Vrsaljko and Petkovic. I am also surprised that Lovro Majer is on stand by and not called up to the full squad. Some of the older players IMO need to call it day. But it was nice to see that we are moving on from Badelj and Lovre Kalinic. The NT has passed both guys by IMO. Thank them for their service though. There are a couple(or 3) of other players i would not have called up but that is the case in every squad selection. And i have warmed up to the Ivan Nitko's idea that Erlic should be called to the NT. There will be some controversy because Borna Sosa was called up, but that was going to happen no matter when it happened.
Squad was called up for the games against Cyprus(away - Sept 8th) & Slovakia(home - Sept 11th). Kramaric is the only out and out striker called up. I would personally rather have Ante Budimir on the squad then Marko Livaja. Livaja showed little in the last set of qualifying matches. I was hoping Budimir would get called and would get a chance to start. DCC is not playing thus he did not get called. Rebic would be good for counter attacking football, but we don't play like that and Zlatko Dalic does not even know hot to incorporate that judging from what i have seen from him as a coach. And Rebic's criticism of Dalic has left him outside the squad. Keepers: Dominik Livaković (Dinamo Zagreb), Ivica Ivušić (Osijek), Ivo Grbić (Lille). Defense: Domagoj Vida (Bešiktaš), Dejan Lovren (Zenit), Borna Barišić (Glasgow Rangers), Josip Juranović (Celtic), Mile Škorić (Osijek), Filip Uremović (Rubin Kazan), Joško Gvardiol (RB Leipzig), Borna Sosa (Stuttgart), Josip Stanišić (Bayern). Midfield: Luka Modrić (Real Madrid), Mateo Kovačić (Chelsea), Marcelo Brozović (Inter), Mario Pašalić (Atalanta), Nikola Vlašić (West Ham), Luka Ivanušec (Dinamo Zagreb), Kristijan Jakić (Eintracht Frankfurt). Forwards: Ivan Perišić (Inter), Andrej Kramarić (Hoffenheim), Josip Brekalo (Torino), Mislav Oršić (Dinamo Zagreb), Marko Livaja (Hajduk). on Standy by: Duje Ćaleta-Car (Olimpique de Marseille), Ante Budimir (Osasuna), Antonio Mirko Čolak (Malmö), Simon Sluga (Luton Town), Kristijan Lovrić (Gorica), Nikola Moro (Dinamo Moskva). https://hns-cff.hr/news/23154/izbornik-dalic-odabrao-igrace-za-cipar-i-slovacku/
The play has been noticeable better the last two games. Quicker passing and more chances created. I would leave Gvardiol at stopper he is the future there.
At least Dalic brings new names. Compared to usual stubborn decision making, where once good players must play. Only if he removes Vida, Barisic, defense would be better. Slovakia had a lot of luck, wrong stadium also, filled with rain. During autumn, they should use Dalmatia, Istria or Kvarner, not continental parts like Slavonia: rainy, grass is slippery. Nikola Moro isn't in focus. Nikola Vlasic has head in clouds since he left Russian league and joined West Ham. Ante Rebic still punished. Silly, just because he said what we all think about Dalic, his "expert" sidekicks. Ivica Olic can't connect two normal sentences. Not sure about Livaja, Orsic. They are in domestic league. Finally, no Petkovic around Anyway, it would be silly to not qualify in Qatar. This would be the end of Dalic and his experts that they call strucni stozer.
Zlatko Dalic called up the squad for Malta Nov 11, away, and Russia Nov 14, home. My only take away is that our forward line looks pretty average nowadays. I think it will all go down to the final game against Russia. Need a win in that game to finish first in the group.
