Josip Stanisic: Croatia's midfield is among the best in world football
Croatia's Josip Stanisic talked about his expectations from 2022 World Cup:
- We're going into the tournament with plenty of confidence as runners-up [in 2018], - he said to Bayern club magazine. - I think a lot is possible for us if we find ourselves as a team and grow yet further during the World Cup.
Which player from your team should fans particularly watch out for?
"All eyes are obviously on Luka Modric. But our midfield in general is among the best in world football with him, Marcelo Brozovic and Mateo Kovacic. It's really remarkable. Those three players are our core and you should watch out for them.
Who are the favourites for you and why?
"I think the favourites are Argentina and Brazil. Both teams have amazing players in their ranks and have been getting results recently. So, I think both are going into the tournament feeling good.
