Luka Modrić isn’t the only Croatian international getting better with age. Look at what Ivan Perišić (33) and Marcelo Brozović (29) are doing at Inter Milan.
Tuesday night, both Croatians got the start for Inter Milan in a 3-0 dismantling versus hated rivals, AC Milan, in the Coppa Italia semifinals. Perišić received a 7/10 as he “Worked his socks off. What an asset he is to this Inter team” while Broz played all 90 minutes with an 8/10 rating; “The usual really: brilliant. Set up the third goal of the evening.”
Inter Milan will now play in the Coppa Italia Final and could make it an Italian double if they win their last six Serie A matches of the season; Inter currently trail AC Milan by two points with a game in hand.
Both Inter Croatians have found a groove later in their careers as Brozović is literally being hailed the best defensive midfielder in the game, by many. And not that anyone is counting, but the World Cup is only seven months away.
To give Perišić’s career a bit of perspective, remember when Manchester United thought he was too expensive and not worth the transfer fee when Jose Mourinho was shopping for a winger?
It does sound like brekalo not so loudly put a solid campaign in Italy
I read even played well defensively
I like him or majer on that right side
Both I feel can add some excitement to that right side
——————-Budimir——————
Perisic—————————Kramaric
Kovacic————— Modric
———————broz—————————
Sosa———gvardiol———car——-juranovic
————————ivusic———————
This is want I want to see in nations league (and likely the World Cup)
Majer at RW> Kramaric or even Brekalo> Kramaric
This is good
@u boj
So how do we line up with krama and budimir in line up versus Just krama alone and budimir alone?
J- Sutalo. C-Car gvardiol
Modric Brozovic
Vrsaljko Perisic
Majer
Kramaric
Budimir
Or
Vrsaljko. C-car. Gvardiol. Sosa
Brozovic Modric
Brekalo. Majer. Perisic
Budimir
Or
Vrsaljko. C-car. Gvardiol. Sosa
Modric Brozovic. Kovacic
Majer. Perisic
Budimir.
I can see Dalic going with the last lineup.
Good line up Vlad however I’m not sold on the Vrsaljko return just yet
He has to prove himself
His premature return at the euros killed us against England
That game reminded me of the 02 Mexico World Cup game
It had too many has beens in the game
Budimir clearly wants to play at the World Cup but I fear Dalic won’t even consider it
Nice goal Kalinic
Livakovic still a deer in headlights
What a nightmare he’s turning out to be
Great goal by Budimir! He’s doing his job getting open like striker is supposed to do.
Whats funny is i know im going to the past but dalic is hard head conservative coach doesnt take risks unless his job is on line. Ill go back to spain 2021 5 3 with perisic getting covid logical replacement was orsic and up top budimir instead of terrible petkovic.
I see Dalic making same mistakes at 2022.
Budimir cant be ignored imo roko simic should also get capped in league of nations why not at this point
Dalic is always talking club form. He is your point
Budimir hot
Livaković not
Petkovic I’m assuming is not doing much these days. Never hear any body mention him here

Budimir just keeps scoring. It’s getting hard to ignore, even for the haters.
Also had a apparently a nice effort called back for offside
Who is playing better at striker at a higher league right now?? No one
If we can be this hot with this many guys in Qatar, we will be scary
Nice run up for budimir
Nothing sexy
Gets open finishes it
It’s all we need
We should be able to create enough chances
Livakovic cannot be our number one hell not even on national team imo anymore
Grbic ivusic kalinic
I don’t know the order it should be but this should be the current three
Lovre Kalinić looks like he may be our best keeper. His goal kicks are great. He catches the ball securely. He covers a lot of ground. He catches shots and crosses. He has good shot blocking reflexes. He was always very talented. He just had a bad run of it when he went to England.
I surprisingly agree. He also looks commanding and confident. He was shouting at his players, and controlling the backline.
I think a lot of us were hoping that
Had a decent game against Iceland at World Cup and looked to be the successor
Had that bad run of games for us and in England
But it’s not like we haven’t given Livaković a way longer leash the way I see it
Its just too many times I have seen Livaković just stand there
I get you feel there is no chance but make the dive dude
It’s not over till it’s over
I hope Dalic is watching this dinamo/hajduk game. Livakovic with horrible heavy touch almost coughed it up to Kalinic. Like Bob Barker to happy Gilmore “This guy sucks”!

Can anyone provide support to the comment that Perisic was refused at Manu because of his age? I assumed Perisic didn’t want to go.
I never got the Perisic dilemma
Always seemed to be stuck at inter when it seemed like he wanted to move before and after the World Cup
Thought the Bayern move would be made permanent
Still very valuable at inter and I’ve read they weren’t planning to re sign
So who knows. Maybe he has some attitude that’s not reported
All I know is he plays hard for us and that’s what matters most
Line for today:
Hajduk +197
Dinamo +147
Draw +231
O/U: 2.25 over -119
