But he also never won something or managed to qualify for the Europa League. Kek on the other hand was much more successful when he took over Rijeka. You can’t really say that he was successful at Osijek despite breaking league records.

Very surprising appointment if it happens. He played a significant part in our club’s success in recent years by setting the foundation. However, he also failed horribly in Osijek and Trabzonspor afterwards.

Can anyone that watches Hajduk regularly tell me how good Sigur is and if he is better as a RB or DM? From two/three games that I saw, he seemed to be really impressive and thought that he could potentially play for our national team in the future.

90 percent of our players don’t deserve to wear this jersey.

Rafel Gomes Cirino, also known as Belinho, rejected Brazil‘s call up and instead decided to represent Croatia. Therefore, he could become the third Brazilian-born player to represent Croatia.

Belinho moved together with his father and brother to Croatia two years ago and beginning of 2023 he joined the ranks of Dinamo Zagreb. Currently he is in the process of acquiring the Croatian citizenship and expected to become an official Croatian citizen at the end of this year.

According to his agent Andy Bara, Belinho could potentially become the most expensive transfer in Dinamo‘s history. However, it is still early to tell if he will eventually fulfill his potential as he is only 14 years old.

It is a problem to some degree but nothing like with the diaspora in Australia where this ideology seems to be widespread. For instance, you wont find this level of Ustaša support in the Croatian diaspora in Austria or Germany which is also quite large.

I can’t understand why a large part of the Croatian diaspora in Australia is still fond of the Ustaša regime. Imagine being a third or fourth generation Australian-Croatian, who grew up in a relatively tolerant country and yet you support a fascist ideology that killed hundreds of thousands of people because they had a different ethnicity or political opinion.
I get that their relatives fled to Australia due to the fear of being persecuted by the KPJ because they were part of this ideology. However, this was almost 80 years ago for fucks sake. Because of idiots like them a lot of people have a negative sentiment towards normal Croatians from the diaspora.

I would not be that pessimistic about our future. We wont probably repeat the success of the last five years but we should still be able to qualify for the following world cups and Euros.

I think that we should still be able to qualify for every major competition within the next 10-15 years given the talents that we have in certain positions.

I believe that the future core of our national team will consist of Gvardiol (CB), Baturina and Sučić (both CM/AM), Šimić (CF) and potentially Vidović (LW). They are already playing an important part in their clubs and have IMO the ability to achieve a world class career.

However, we do lack the same level of talents in FB, DM and RW. There are some decently talented players in these positions (e.g. Sigur) but it’s difficult to tell what their limit is as of now.

Good thing is that we will have a title race (at least until winter) between the first three teams. However, it is quite shocking how bad our club football is. The only reason that there is a title race in the first place is because Dinamo dropped down to the level of Hajduk and Rijeka.

Can you really argue that he is a tactical mastermind? All three medals can be attributed to our midfield and penalty shootouts. On the other hand, we have seen some of the worst games and defeats under Dalić.

I would also add Gvardiol and maybe Liva (if we ignore his fuckup)
