How may strikers would you put out there?

klasnic has to start, somehow playing in the bundesliga must be an advantage, balaban should be incorparated into the starting line-up also and olic should come off the bench for fresh legs in the second half probably for prso who gets bad knees after games

That’s a terrible idea, incorporating 3 strikers. You better hope they come through for you every game, otherwise the game is lost.

The play for Croatia shouldn’t start with strikers but rather in midfield. Croatia has pure strikers in the game such as Klasnic and Prso that don’t need a third option but actually someone to feed them the ball. Incorporating Modric into the line up with Kranjcar would be the best idea. The simple speed and transition from defense to offense would help out the strikers by opening holes in the opposition’s defense. And since those two guys are great finishers…

Croatia shouldn’t try to copy Brazil; because in my opinion, Brazil isn’t going to do too good.

Take Niko Kranjcar out and play prso as the attacking midfielder. Then Play a tandem Klasnic and Balaban up front with and Olic supersub

“Take Niko Kranjcar” no chance. Prso plays best on the left forward position. Yes he is a good play feeding the ball to his opposite forward teammate but he isn’t a player who can easily push up from the midfield like Kranjcar. He would be out of position in the midfield and therefore not have a strong performance. Also he is so use to playing forward there is little to no time for him to get enough match practice to be any chance in that position.

I agree with ‘You Know It’. Take Niko Kranjcar out, but to put Prso in the attacking midfield would be wasting Prso’s talents. What we need is another attacking midfielder that is not as lazy as Niko, and I say that should be Dudu(DaSilva.)I know his position is striker but I have seen his ability and he would fall into the attacking mid position easily.

Perhaps Balaban would also be a good choice. I agree that Olic should be Prso’s sub.

There is a nice clip of Dudu in action on the ‘you tube’ site. Dudu speed and accuracy would have been a huge advantage to the Cro side in the attacking midfield position. It is great to see that Croatia talent is going to be a force in the future.
Including time period for Euro Croatia/Hungary 2012!

Why is everyone under the delusion that Niko Kranjcar is any good? I think the idea of playing Prso in the midfield would be an excellent idea.
