We have a few injuries thus far:

1. Niko Kranjčar
2. Ivan Strinić
3. Mladen Petrić

The final cut sees Tomić (GK) Strinić, Badelj i Klasnić dropped.

Bilić says that he doesn't see Pranjić as a LB but a LM player so he will either go with Pamić or Ćorluka at LB.

Pletikosa should recover but he says that Subasic is the 2nd GK in case he doesn't while Kelava is 3rd :wallbang:

Turkey have a very very interesting player, by looks of some youtube footage and according to people on par with Modrić in every way.

Nuri Sahin, who is currently at Real Madrid and transferred from Borussia Dortmund, but who has been injured for 6 months, and even though he has been training and is no longer injured, Real are not giving him any minutes in fear that he will be called up by Hiddink, and subsequently injured playing for Turkey which will spell bad news for Real madrid.

Right now it's a case of who will win out, but my prediction is that hiddink will call him regardless of injury and the kid will play.

Here is some footage:

Ya im pretty sure that Sahin guy was awarded bundesliga player of the year last year.
Im sure he will get some minutes if called up, either way they have other good players to worry about. It will be a tough match, if we play for a draw we will get destroyed. If we play to win and with heart then we have chance for positive result.

Lovrenu stradalo koljeno, ozbiljnost ozljede nepoznata

Na press-konferenciji nakon utakmice Lyonov trener Remy Garde potvrdio je da je Hrvat ozlijedio koljeno.

- Dejan osjeća neugodnu bol, no težinu ozljede trenutačno je nemoguće odrediti. Morat ćemo pričekati do sutra (četvrtak, op. a.), a sasvim precizne informacije imat ćemo tek u petak.
------------
We will know for sure on friday it seems, but it's unlikely that he will recover in 9 days, as it's a knee injury :wallbang:

A little surprised that Pranjic got called up. but since Strinic and Kranjcar are both Left sided players, maybe its not that big of a surprise that both Pamic and Pranjic got callups.

I rate Jajalo as a better player then Badelj(just so i state that for the record, in case i haven;t done it previously).

Hopefully Turkey don;t play like Ajax did, otherwise it will be a long 90 minutes out on that pitch for the NT

Hiddink, always pause for concern when Hiddink is coaching. I know we have never lost to him, but still........

That sucks about Lovren......... thanks for the update Blast!

As do I having watched him recently in their 5:0 loss and their 3:0 win, he does a lot of work in the middle of the pitch and is always a menace with a good motor. plus the fact that he plays in a better league and is in their first team plans :thumbsup:
