Very young team with a nice blend of experience. Not much pressure on them, which is great as they will get much better by time of the World Cup in 2010.

Mario Galinovic, Hrvoje Vejic, Nikola Pokrivac, and Nikola Kalinic are the only ones Ive never really heard of. But they must be good as they will be playing for Croatia. Very Happy

Ognjen Vukojevic and Nikola Kalinic the only Croatian based players.

Should go far!

So sad to see Eduardo's name missing from that list. Sad

Also Rosický will miss out on the Euros. Such a shame.

It is a bit sad, but at least he gets a nice view instead of playing!
