Croatia Boss Hits Out At Owen!

His comments that "none of the Croatia players would make it into the England team" have certainly upset Croatia coach Slaven Bilic.

The Croats did the double over England, 2-0 at home and 3-2 at Wembley, so he questions Owen's motive.

Bilic: "There's a bit of arrogance when we see words like 'No player from the Croatia team would play for England' - that is simply not true.

"You have to realise football is played in the rest of Europe on a high level.

"But I respect the English a lot. When everyone is fit they have a chance to win in Europe, maybe even the World Cup."
