Sablic should be in the NT!! he played very well today against Inter and I believe he should get a call-up before the likes of Tomas and Tokic.

Laursen was terrible, the second Celta goal was all his fualt, not only did he get two chances to shoot from 6 yards out, Laursen was standing there with his hand in the air expecting an offside call when he was right next to the guy! lol :D
our players today...

Rober Kovac had a minor injury and he didn't play. Mornar was not in the matchday squad. Both Leko and Sablic played well for Dinamo Kiev. Sablic was solid at the back and Leko had a few shots on goal. Prso was on the bench but did not come on. Tudor played the whole match and Juve won 7-0! against Galatasary.

Milan Rapaic made his first start for Ancona today and was obviuosly the best player for Ancona today. He almost won a penalty, put in good crosses, took good free kicks. On the highlights show every chance that Ancona had was started by Rapaic. Looking at the standings it is not too late for them to make a push out of relegaion, only 5 points.

Milan Rapaic was picked for Serie A Best 11 this week. Good start from him as he had an impressive game.

On the other end of the scale, Igor Biscan was picked for the Premiership Worst 11. He's had a shitter.

He had to mark James Beattie which was tough for him, he was too fast. He could of scored too, Biscan had a free header from a corner but he sent his header well wide.

About Niko Kovac, seems the former manager thinks he and Bobic are the problems for Hertha Berlin's poor start to the season..

Screw this guy Stevens. N.Kovac kills himself for the national team and Bobic is what half Slovenian half Croatian? who I remember before was always a very good striker for Germany(Euro 96) and is fighting his way back into the German National Team. If more players were like Niko and Fredi then there would not be a problem with soccer. Country always comes first and Niko and Fredi know what its all about.

Does anybody know why Josip Simunic hasn't been in the matchday squad for Hertha in the past few league games? Is he injured or did the manager just drop him out of the line-up, I tried to ask the guys at the Hertha forum and they never answered. :D

Basically not much action today from the Croatian players in Europe. Mornar and Sokota both scored for thier clubs as both of the teams won. Milan Rapaic missed a PK and Ancona lose once again 1-0. Zivkovic came off the bench late in the game as Pompey were crushed by thier rivals Southampton. Simic, Seric and Tudor didn't play. Igor Budan scored the only goal for Atalanta and Vugrinec's goal was disallowed becuase he was in an offside position.
Other than the English league every league have have a few weeks for the winter break so it looks like the only players that will be playing are going to be Biscan (Liverpool) and Zivkovic (Pompey)

Some of our players are in action today as Serie A restarts and there is one Premier league game. Zivkovic is the starter for Pompey in thier match against Aston Villa. Tudor played the full match for Juventus. Simic was on the bench for AC Milan. Seric started for Parma and was sent off for a second yellow in the 80th minute. Milan Rapaic had another great game for Ancona, he earned a penlty kick for his team but he didn't take it, Ancona missed it once again. In Serie B Igor Budan scored once again for Atalanta.

I watched the Juve game this morning. Tudor had a good game, nothing spectacular mind you but, he was playing with confidence and looked solid. Almost scored on a header where the keeper was forced into a diving save and gave up a rebound which Conte (I think?) hit the side of the net. Nedved's goal was a 'cracker' (pardon my limey slang;)).

Greek giants Panathinaikos are reportedly interested in trying to lure Werder Bremen misfit Ivica Banovic to Athens, according to reports in Croatia and Greece.
Panathinaikos' Croatian director of sport Velimir Zajec has reportedly made Banovic his number one transfer target for the summer.

It is even being suggested Werder might allow the Croatian to leave during the winter transfer period, with him having no future at the club.

The 23-year-old midfielder has still not made his Bundesliga breakthrough despite spending the last three-and-a-half years at the Weserstadion.

Banovic joined the Green and Whites in a €2 million move from NK Zagreb, and Werder are not expected to renew his contract which ends in the summer.
