They're fed up with the international break and just want club football back? |  |

They’ve lost their best players and are clearly going through a fallow period for players.
Love their kit though! |  | | |

Don't forget they're a tiny nation population-wise, around 3.9 million - smaller than Scotland and the Republic of Ireland, not much bigger than Wales. For them to have achieved what they have on the world stage (World Cup final and semi-final) is incredible and a testament to their footballing culture. They used to call the Yugoslavians the Brazilians of Europe, and of all the ex-Yugoslav nations it was the Croatians who took up that mantle.
But these things are cyclical when your population is that small and fallow periods are inevitable. |  | | |

Indeed, really they’ve been punching above their weight with something of a golden generation. I guess population size helps to an extent in football. Scotland have a slightly larger population than Croatia but have been pony since forever. |  | | |

They had a good team in the mid nineties aswell. They’ve punched above their weight for a long time.

When they allowed players ( one or two top class ) to exceed their use by date. Changing of the guard needed there now, only I very much doubt they have a younger version of Modric or even Perisic for that matter. |  | | |
