laeth 527 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Can Modroc play the deep-lying playmaker role for our double-pivot in the 4-2-3-1? Ala Alonso. If not, I think I'd prefer Javi Martinez or Mourtinho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rover 28 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Modric he goes to Chelsea just if Tottenham lose 4. place or Chelsea go to 3. or 4. place or if win the Champions league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamiCFC9 258 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Modric arguably the best playmaker in the league (and by Scholes the best) is not wanted by some of our fans?Lampard doing great as a playmaker?Then why the hell we got dominated badly in possesion agaisnt every decent team we have played.

LondonPride1905 236 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Many of you aren't thinking and are saying mostly utter BS. Beg you pardon, but don't we play a 4 - 2 - 3 - 1? Why should we get a central midfielder then? Think a little. We have Obi, Romeu, Essien for the Defensive Midf position of "the 2". Then you got Lamps who is our "tempo - dictator". But when you got a versatile player such as Meireles to get that role and the English Xavi returning from Swans, he'll probably HAVE to get atleast 10 - 15 games for the same role. I don't see any point adding Modric if we were to kill Josh's career. Then we take a quick look at the wingers: Marin, Studge, Kalou(prob. Leaving), Malouda(prob. Leaving) and Mata. Mata plays in the hole, Meireles can fill that void too, as can...Lucas Piazon, who should take part in the Carling Cup matches and pre-season. With KDB coming and Kalou and Malouda prob. leaving we have only Studge and Marin. We need replacements. Versatile. Replacements that could make a battle for the position and to always want that position more than his adversary. Having thought so, Jovetic, Hulk, Piati, Hazard, Neymar, Lucas, Lavezzi, whoever you can think of. Having 4 wingers would be ideal for us. So actualy, what we need is ADDING WINGERS, NOT USELESS CENTRAL MIDFIELDERS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamiCFC9 258 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Just look at the impact Scholes made when he returned, if we get Modric the impact on our game will be even bigger, because at this point, Luca is better player then Scholes.We need to start playing as a big team again, and what big teams do is control the game and dominate posession.

Dylan_91 90 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I think we should play ramires further back and have him as our defensive midfielder. he plays there for brazil so why not for us? he could play like yaya toure does at city cos then he can still drive forward. The only problem is we would then need a defensive midfielder who can also pass the ball because ramires isnt great at passing. When Mikel is playing well he would be perfect but i dont think hes good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamps is not best at DM, oldEssien played bad this season, gettin oldRomeu is too youngMeireles is only backup, gettin oldMikel is good in 4/5 games, he could actualy play there.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 That is what we need (Moutinho). Mikel is DM and Moutinho would starting actions, he is great player there, like Modric but cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamiCFC9 258 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Wow .., just wow.. Modric is the best CM in the prem, said not by some cocky spuds fan but by Paul Scholes himself, i would rather trust him on that.I would take Modric for 40m. in a heartbeat, cuz he really is that damn good.I can't believe some people say he is overrated, while actually he is quite underrated.
