While Klaas-Jan Huntelaar was waving goodbye to his fans at Amersterdam ArenA on Sunday, as he will be joining Real Madrid after the new year, his new replacement, Dario Cvitanich, made it loud and clear that Huntelaar's goal-scoring presence will not be missed.

Cvitanich secured his hat trick in the 3-0 win over Den Haag inside the first hour of play (6', 17', 55'). He has also scored 6 goals in the last 3 games for Ajax.

After not even being able to step onto the field for the majority of the young season, Cvitanich has definitely made it count in recent games.

So now that Cvitanich is officially on everyone's radar, how can Bilić refuse putting him on the Croatian national squad for the Romania friendly in February if he continues to score in Holland?

And should Cvitanich get a spot on the team for a World Cup qualifier, is it ok with you for Croatia to have 2 South American born players play striker when Eduardo returns?
