Most likely lineup is one that suits Mamić (Dinamo's president) the most.

Nobody sane cares about the NT anymore. They ruined everything it stood for and nowdays it's a money-laundering vessel for one family.

Šuker is Platini, basically. A legend turned into a disgusting individual.

And the coach is there because "he lives close to the stadium". Mamić actually said that when he appointed him in Dinamo few years back.

With a proper coach and atmosphere this squad would easily be capable for semis, like this I'm not sure that they'll even go out of the group.

Lineup is probably:

Subašić

Srna-Vida-Ćorluka-Vrsaljko

Brozović-Modrić-Rakitić

Pjaca-Mandžukić-Perišić

Vrsaljko is light-years above 34yo Srna who's in decline, but the captain has to play.

Strinić is better on Vrsaljko as the left back.

Pjaca, Ćorić and Rog are going because Mamić has to sell them tihs summer and wants to raise the price.

Halilović stayed home because Mamić already sold him.

Why take a winger you desperately need since you only have two of them and you're forcing that formation, when you can have two players who's price needs to be inflated.

Oh well, at least it's easier to follow the big competitions with less emotions now.
