Oh my Ivan Perišić, take a bow! In his very first start for Hajduk Split since returning from knee surgery, Perišić volleyed home a left-footed strike from 13 yards out to level the match between Hajduk and Istra. Hajduk’s season has been over for weeks but all eyes have been on Perišić to see his match fitness.
Is this the moment we were all praying for to see if Perišić would be 100% ready for Euro 2024? I think so.
Tottenham are fucking retards to let him go. He belongs in a Champions League team in Spain, Germany..
Does anyone know if Orsic is being called up for Euros?
Dalić won’t call him up.
Last year, Dalić cut him from the team very quickly when he moved to Southampton and was on the bench.
Oršić is back from injury but hasn’t been starting at his club. I don’t think it will be enough for a callup (unless he suddenly gets a lot of minutes or wins a starting spot).
Dalić unfortunately holds him to a different standard than his other veteran players who all continued to receive callups even when they were on the bench at their clubs.
Gvardiol with another superb performance for MCFC. This guy can do no wrong! Can’t wait to see what he brings us in the Euros. I know he is not played in the same way for Cro NT as he is under Pep, but man he is really an offensive threat when he wants to be. Confident on his weak foot, killer strike, very fast on the counter attack, can be a good passer when he wants, and great positoning on set pieces.
Looks like Modric’s days at Madrid are over, wonder where he goes next.
Perisic wont be a starter at this stage he is a great joker from bench.
I dont see a starting 11 Dalic always shocks at first tournament games.
2018 Rebic and Droping Corluka.
2021 Gvardiol at lb for first cap.
2022 Bringing in Lovren to the 11.
I will say all 3 games will have a different lineup based on what is needed.
I see v spain we defend it might be a biring game like NL final.
V Albanija We will attack.
Depends what is needed v italy if we get 6 points Dalic puts some bench players like Čačić did 2016
If all are players are healthy (Perisic / Budimir etc) and playing well /heating up at the right time and Dalic Can figure out this formation puzzle and put together the winning combination we should be looking at a great Euro 24. With a little bit of Luka Magic, Luck and the right strategy we are going to be in for a great tournament!!
Perisic is a legend of soccer as it stands now..he has no regrets ..watched him for years ..top class footballer. I watched our 98 legendary national team and still perisic stands out..no more to say.

There is an article suggesting that Ante Budimir has recovered morethan expected he will play in one of the next two matches.
So he should be in shape for the call up.
For me, the Perisic goal was really really nice.
But it’s not that actual goal that’s important. It’s the fact that Perisic could be back for us for the Euro and really give us a super charge overall and create a major offensive threat that we really need. I feel Perisic is one of the most underrated players out there. He has come through super clutch for us in big games many times and I hope he can do it again. This is great news if he’s ready!!!
Well, he’s got a month to get into game shape.
Hopefully he can do it.
For those in the know, I don’t think he has been underestimated in terms of his value. He is the 2nd most prolific soccer in Croatia’s 30-year short soccer history as a nation.
hey, we all love Perisic but his goal isn’t the HNL headlines for the week. GNK Dinamo are 2023/2024 HNL Champions…after being 13 points behind Hajduk early in the season. what a massive accomplishment considering the coaching change early in the season, the selling of their players and not replacing them, hiring and then getting rid of Dario Simic then bringing in Velimir Zajec. the team were down and out…nobody believed they’d win the league, Rijeka came out guns a blazin and at the end of the day….they couldn’t hang on.
I don’t know why continued lack of parity, and dominance should be celebrated. Kind of sad. Would have like to have seen Rijeka take it this year. Ali opet, to je to.
kromiza, did you watch HNL this season or do you just read up and see highlights?
both Rijeka and Hajduk had ample opportunities to win but they didn’t. the reason I’m savouring this is because the media and Torcida celebrated before the season ended.
a few weeks back hajduk were boasting that they had a higher value club than Dinamo…higher meaning worth more Euros. they were half season champs, they won the lotto with Brekalo and signed Kalinic for 1 Euro.
with regards to Rijeka. I have always said I’d be happy to see Rijeka win it but they also crumbled when they shouldn’t have.
Agreed, just highlights, need to get a TV cable package, that would carry it, do you have suggestions? Would like to see some parity all the same.
Everyone I know uses the pirated way. I use a mag box and then got some guy to “fix” it for me for $15/month. Includes tons of channels, movies and other country channels. Other people use IPTV…I don’t know much about that
Puno Hvala
Kako pogodak!
Kakav* ????
Was supposed to be a wink emoji. Not a bunch of question marks lol.
Ur mean
Da
njegov šut nije problem. brzina je. teško da on može igrati na visokoj razini za mjesec dana.
joker off the bench
Everyone heating up!
Perisic for the first time started the match for Hajduk and lasted 60 odd minutes.
Did not watch the match, looks like he played on the LW and scored a wonderful goal. In the previous matches that I have watched Perisic come off the bench and play for Hajduk he seemed reserved and was only playing at about 60/70 % intensity. Two matches left in HNL let’s hope that all goes well with more playing time and increased intensity involving some sharp turns and twists. I doubt that he will be anywhere 100% fit for EURO, but I think that he will be there and will get some playing time coming off the bench.
“Two matches left in HNL let’s hope that all goes well with more playing time and increased intensity involving some sharp turns and twists.”
Yeah indeed, MART.
I was initially thinking Perisic would play the full 90 in the Istra game, guess I wasn’t thinking straight ha ha.
Anyway what an amazing goal! I think the guy is on track and will make the Euros.
