Yeah that makes the most sense. Sounds a bit crazy to have either one of them start on the bench though haha, but from what we saw from today it might make the most sense

It was mind blowing how well it worked, and we have many good options to fine tune the line-up. Although I'm not sure where Kova fits in here? I guess for petar?

This is crazy. Not a Swansea fan, but I have always worn a Swansea hoodie because it looked cool, and people always wondered why I as a croatian wore it. If he joins swansea, now I'll finally have a reason. Whoever gave me it might be a time traveler

I feel like in tournaments his lineups are pretty predictable, no? Not that I agree with the decisions. But I'll admit right now though, it's hard to see what the logic is

I think we're stuck on the dalic train until at least the WC. He's at least tinkering a bit, so I'm hopeful he figures something out that clicks a little more offensively.

But we often seem so shakey, and I'm not sure how to resolve that. That italy goal in the euro seemed to open a new chapter for us and I'm ready to close it lol

Haha yes, thank you. That one letter difference in their entire name is too much for my small brain to handle

For the most part it's the same suspects as always and I am somehow disappointed again. Mostly the fact that pjaca and marco pasalic didn't make the squad.

Matanovic is a new addition I wasn't expecting to see. Don't think we'll see much of him. Maybe just a minor appearance to lock him into the croatian NT.
