- Ivan Perisic is injured so you have a chance to be among the first eleven…
- It’s a pity that Perisic has got injured. Still it’s up to the head coach to decide who’ll take the field. We have a lot of good players.
- Will the game against Serbia be special for you?
- Of course, each player will have a great motivation. This will be a real derby between two national sides. Serbia is one of our main opponents in the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification. They play well both for attack and defense. But we must prove that we can do better than Serbs.
- After Serbia you will face Wales. By the way your former teammate Gareth Bale is Welsh and his play is really impressive…
- I often watch him play for Tottenham Hotspur. He is a great player. But never the less I think if we play against Wales as we did in Osiek (2:0) Bale won’t be able to help his team.
- What can you tell about your physical conditions?
- I haven’t missed a single training session in Dynamo Kyiv this year and I feel great.
- This year you have scored 4 for Dynamo Kyiv. You also have 2 assists to your name. Still you are being substituted rather often. You also don’t play much for Croatia national team…
- I agree that it’s not enough. In Dynamo our head coach lets me play for about 60 minutes in every match. He is responsible for the result so it’s up to him. I think I chose a good team. White and Blues participate in the UEFA Champions League regularly.
Of course I want to play more. So I’ll do my best to become Dynamo Kyiv and Croatia first team regular.
