Weird choice imo. Was never in a high level league.

Thing is he is not standing out in the level he was in.

he lead Dinamo Zagreb on their most successful CL campaign possibly ever; I for one argue that if it wasn't for some weird calls in the last game against Shakhtar we would have made it out of group stage (we went from 2nd in the group to 4th in about 15min of play)

he also made Osijek a genuine title contender in the Croatian league (Prva HNL) for a couple seasons which was no easy feat despite newfound investment in the club.

It's certainly a bizzarre signing but I think it could go either way. Would be equally unsurprised if he keeps them up or if he crashes and burns and leaves after 9 months.

Gotta start somewhere...
