Dzeko will certainly test the guys in the back

would love to see our entire A squad, MLS and Liga MX guys included; however, they'll probably be left at home.
Really hoping that FIFA approves Johansson's transfer request prior to the match.

Also fun fact about Bosnia's second striker Ibisevic, he was a top 25 recruit coming out of high school in St. Louis and was the NCAA Freshman of the Year and a first team All American at St. Louis University.

they are good but are not world beaters or as good as Croatia

Croatia is horrendously overrated. Hell, they couldn't even beat Scotland.

one bad game doesn't make them over rated they always perform on the big stage. Bosnia is on a great run of form in qualifying but they are not as good as Croatia

The only respectable team they've beaten since 2012 was South Korea. Their best results are ties against good teams and wins against minnows like Estonia, Wales and Macedonia

Are you sure they didn't field their A squad? It was a WCQ and its gonna cost them first place because of it. I don't think they would have risked that in an important game.
I think Croatia is good and I really like them, but I don't think they're playing as good as a top seed in the World Cup (which they are in a position to get). I think they finish second in their group and it only takes an unlucky draw for them to miss the World Cup entirely.

Since the game is there, won't that be a middle of the afternoon game here? Midweek?
It would be a feather in our capo to win in Europe against a solid European team.

Well not really. In '98 they were 3rd place (excellent) but really haven't done much since then.

Well that's what they get for that

Second place goes to a playoff game versus another second place team from the other groups. They're split into two pots of 4 teams each and your FIFA ranking determines whether you are in Pot 1 or Pot 2. So they won't play against any of the elite second place teams cause they should be in Pot 1. Also, there's 9 groups so the worst second place team (in terms of points accrued) doesn't go to the playoff

None of these teams are minnows.

Minnows? Look at CONCACAF
