Hard question because i don't know how good Mexico is. I hope they will beat them. Mexico need draw and they are in better position. But Croatian midfield with Manzukic on the top is far better than lazy Fred and Brazil midfielders.. I expect ofensive formation and Mexico have poor defence so chances is 65-35 for Croatia.

Two years ago I posted on this forum that Rakitic and Mandzukic are good enough for Newcastle.. Both worth 12M in that moment (Rakitic 4M, Manzukic 8M). Now they worth 50M on transfermarkt. Now i think Ivan Perisic, Wolfsburgs winger is good for Newcastle, last 6 months almost every game he score. In Dortmund, Klopp play Gotze, thats why Perisic quit. He is Everton target by some reports. Price is 8M. Hope ge is in Carrs notes.

@McLoven is liar or live in his own imaginare world. Now 99,9 % Croatians support national team because Kovac is apointed as a manager. We have problems with ex manager Stimac who choose every time bad Dinamo Zagreb players and we lost twice against Scotland recently, but he is sacked and Kovac now sending call-ups only to players who deserve it. Only Brozovic is Dinamo player in the current team, Schalke will buy him i think. We still have problems in national league only.

Corluka was the best defender in Russia last season... But he and Lovren can't play together, they dont understand each other.. For me Lovren is very overrated in Soton. Few days ago Sahtar bid 30m for Kovacic, he was shite tonight. The biggest problem for Croatia is defensive midfielder. Badelj (Hsv) and Vukojevic (Dynamo Kyev) are limited players. Next game i expect Shildenfield, Lovren will be on the bench..

Croatia played without Mario Mandzukic.. With him i expect 6 points againts Mexico and Cameroon.. Iam Croatian and iam very sad.. I hate this japanise c***. This is not the first case we are robbed because we are small country. Two years ago we were robbed in the Euro tournament against Spain. Spain deserved to lose and be eliminated in the group stage. Later they win competition..

Rakitic > Grenier... Rakitic will be sold this summer. He is very good player, win Europe league recently, can replace Cabaye!! I think he want walkaway, Sevilla offered him new contract, he is contracted until 2015 and Sevilla is selling club like us. So we can offer him bigger wages..

My list; Vedran Corluka (great season at Lokomotiv Moscow, can play at RB/CB ), Remy Cabella (proper winger is what we need for years), Clement Grenier (Cabaye replacement), Andy Carroll (English, pardew like big strikers), Zaha (good resale value), Colback (free backup player, English)...

Andy Carroll is what we need...

Chelsea buy Croatian midfielder Mario Pasalic. Fee is 2M euros, he will stay with Hajduk Split on loan until the end of the season.. He scored 6 goals in first half of the season... Lazio and Catania wanted him too.

Ivan Rakitic, a decent midfielder and he scores a lot for Sevilla.. Contracted until 2015... Avalaible maybe for 12-13M euros..

Sigþórsson > Finnbogason

Jean Evrard Kouassi, Ivorian footballer who plays for Hajduk Split. Ajax want him according by Croatian medias.

Petric has some offers from Germany, Spain and Switz. (Basel maybe) but he wanted more money than they offered.. He want go with Croatia to Brazil next summer, so he need good season.. Would be good on a 1year contract.. Can play as a striker and winger..

Jupp Heynckes

Alen Halilović is overrated. He is worth maybe 2-3m. He played for Croatia, because his father is a Bosnian, and Alen was eligible to play for the Bosnian national team. Croatia invited him because they want him for the future...

Get Pablo Osvaldo over the line! would be a great signing.

Carroll Nolan Barton

Roma signed Croatian youngster Tin Jedvaj (17) for €6M + 25% of the next transfer... Tottenham want him too..

Ivan Rakitic? 10goals and 10assist this season with Sevilla.. Can play all positions in the midfield. He is right winger 4 Croatia, think his price will be 8-10M euros..

Want Andy home, Benteke could be only one season wonder... So bring Geordie boy home!!
