I still find Luca Modric on the squad, He is 35 old year which I think is not good again to run to get the ball. better to put him on the front together with Mandzukic. but the formation I look, Modric will play as playmaker to supply a ball to front. so when meet Maroco where have Ziyech and Hakimi, there will be surprise if draw. We have to forget Croatia as finalist long time ago because they have the old player inside.
Not only about Modric but there are still some good players as well like Perisic or maybe Kovavic in tandem with Modric in midfield.
Modric himself is likely to be the last for him to lead his colleagues in the Croatian national team so it is certain that he will not waste the last title for him.
Today they had a friendly match with some of their substitute players and the results were still quite good against Saudi Arabia they won with a narrow score of 1 goal.
Don't just stick to one or two names when you see a country, this is a game that relies on teamwork that will go hand in hand in matches. If we look at a name like Luca Modric then we will make conclusions that will not favor him because of his age. But if we look at the whole then we will see a different assessment of them. There are several names in Croatia who are very likely to play well and create a balance for the Croatian game. Here Luca Modrid plays a very vital role for his Croatia, because the position he occupies will greatly determine the direction of their game.
