When Italy make it to the finalā¦
End of the road for Modric now surely
Sucks they couldnāt have wion that Nations League
Anyone else watching BBC? Who on earth are the pundits?
I guess Croatia might still advance? is it the top 4 third-placed teams that advance or something?
everything has an end.
Modric is already in a huge decline, as we can see from his Real performance.
Still a slight hope for Croatia but itās damn near impossible.
Heās had a truly amazing run
Croatia have been great vaule and itās a shame they wonāt win something significant with him there
People underestimate how hard that final hurdle to win a trophy is.
Football heritage is absolutely a thing. Be interesting if Croatiaās next generation will go the extra yard. Feels itās more defence heavy with Sutalo, Gvardiol and Stanisic.
They desperately need a top forward.
Proper talent drain in the attacking positions
Gonna be rough for them for a good while Iād imagine
no doubt he is one of the greats⦠a small giant.
too bad football is a team sports (not even a doubles like tennis)⦠you need 11 very good players plus a deep bench and a great coach to combine as a winning team.
And a little luck too
On a different day they win that final against France
They need us to give Slovenia a hammering. Which isnāt going to happen.
Slovenia need to get stomped by a minimum of 3 goals for Croatia to have a chance. A Czech Republic draw or win also ends Croatiaās chances
Just as I read your post they explained the situation here⦠yeah I see, slim chances, but you guys can definitely pummel a team that isnāt that strong on paper? could happen.
Nice of Wiki to do that, lol.
Deep run incoming for Croatia, @GC-Maniac
Reverse jinx.
Unfortunately for Spalletti he needs a proper striker up front and decent wingers for his teams to get going and Italy have neither.
But I thank God we have Gigi, Bastoni and Calafiori.
Always remember winning Italian teams always start slowly at the beginning of a tournament
