Croatia boss Bilic clams Owen’s claim

Bilic said: “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 everybody is fit they have the chance to win in Europe, maybe even the World Cup.”
