It's really amazing the talent that comes out of their country with the size of it. Looking at their squad, if you follow the top 5 leagues, you see those names and you're thinking "damn, they're actually stacked". They don't have a Messi, Ronaldo or Icardi, but they have basically an all-star squad. I'm an Inter Milan fan and love Perišić and Brozović. Perišić is a boss that hasn't gotten the credit he deserves outside of Serie A. I don't watch Bundesliga like I do Serie A, but when I do, I watch Eintracht since my family (before I was born) briefly lived in Frankfurt, and Rebić is playing out of his mind in World Cup. He's good at Eintracht, but I feel like he's taken it up a notch for World Cup. Then you have Rakitić who's a world class bad ass, Modrić, another house name, then you Vida playing out of his mind. I think they got a great shot at being France. I hope they win and even if I didn't, I wouldn't bet against them!
