top Northern Ireland's scorer of all times David Healy(35 goals) is too old now (33 years) and he wont be on this qualifications.

Croatia - Macedonia

Macedonia have new coach that is Cedomir Janevski (good coach with lot experience). Preparations were great,captain Goran Pandev is in great form,Novevski and Goran Popov should control defence,Tasevski is back in Macedonian squad after long time. Only thing what i dont understand is why Ilco Naumovski isnt called for this qualifications!? ... there are only 2 called players from our league (macedonian league) both from last season champion Vardar , Stjepanovic and very fast Dragan Georgiev.
