Modric

Im Suprised were not after him. Hed be perfect beside Yaya Toure in midfield, Could be Replacement for Barry, And Champions League football could attract him.

he's massively overhyped

Agree totally.

Think £35-£40 million is way too much for him.

I think Mancini likes his midfielders (not attacking midfielders) to be stronger and more combative than Modric is as a solid defensive base is such an important part of Mancini's footballing philosophy to create a platform for the front four (and sometimes the full-backs) to run wild. That could be why we are linked with De Rossi, Martinez, and M'Vila (strong midfielders with good passing ability) rather than Modric or Sahin.

I wouldn't bother trying to buy anyone from Spurs. Levy is a fucking nightmare and if we were after a player you can guarantee we would get absolutely robbed.

You can't play Modric alongside Yaya. They do the same job. Look at what playing Song and Arteta together did to Arsenal's defensive record last year. Although to be fair their back 4 is shit too. (Other than Koscielny).

You need a defensive midfielder, and a ball playing central midfielder. Barry and Yaya. Mikel and Lampard. Khedira and Alonso. Busquets and Xavi.

We paid under 25million each for Silva and Nasri, there's no way we'd pay the 30-40million spurs want for Modric.
If he was available for under 25m then yeah he could be worth it.

Double what he's worth at least. Levy is absolutely insane to turn down 38m for him.

If for eg Modric a player who wants out and is not granted his wish and starts to under perform deliberately and be lazy in training and develops a bad attitude...
so what will happen then or is there in clause that will penalize him for under performing

Modric with his eyes closed is better than Barry.
