Luka Modric

[Aesthetic Relic 301]

what was with the story that Roman won't give anymore money??

When was this?

[EskWeston 696]

There has always been money available, we bought Belletti and Malouda in the summer and was prepared to spend quite a lot of Alves too. I am sure in January and certainly in the summer there will be plenty of cash around for us to spend

Add to that the endless reports linking us to Kaka and Mr Ed

Exactly, i would say money isn't an issue

When was this?

In mid season last year!

In mid season last year!

Well that's obviously been disproved.

I hear five minutes ago on Croatian news that Modric said that he will like to move to CFC.....and that there were some talks

[SuperSheva7 0]

im kind of excited. i haven't seen him play but from what i hear about him, he is a player we need.

[Aesthetic Relic 301]

After watching him last night, he seemed pretty good. Comfortable with the ball and not afraid to have a shot.30million though...........he's not that good, 10-15 million tops. http://forum.talkchelsea.net/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif

he hit the point a said that he is good but not for 30 milion

[EskWeston 696]

Yup he looked a tidy little player, there is no way we should be anything over £15m for him though otherwise it will just not be worth it.

[TrueChelseaBlue 105]

he can only get better, go for him now, else his price will rise, like any other player, specially with Chelsea showing interest, be a good coup if we can get him at the Bridge, watching him in the Croatia v England game, he can bring the ball down very well, and looks very very skillful

[Cameron 30]

Yeh, i'd quite like him. Technically, he seems a very gifted player. He's very skillful, fast and has a good pass too. 30m I think is too high, however if it has to be paid, then that's what I'd like to see us pay for him. I think he's worth £15 Million though. But we could do with a player like him, and i'd defiantly take him.Tidy is a good word to describe him ^^ http://forum.talkchelsea.net/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.png

Modric is a good player, he played well for Croatia in midweek. He certainly looks like a long-term successor to Lampard in the future.

Can I spare a thought a minute...Lampard, Essien, Mikel, Joe Cole, MakeleleHow on earth is is going to fit into a starting XI every week?? EDIT: Mind you if Essien and Mikel are going to the African Nations Cup soon we're gna need someone like him as a replacement.

The point is that our midfield is missing a certain TYPE of player, we need the creative edge in our midfield to work alongside the defensive minded player (Makelele, Mikel, Essien) and the box to box midfielder (Lampard, Essien, Ballack, Sidwell).Long term i would think Sidwell will leave and attacking playmaker will come in.

[Steve 10,227]

dont no much about him just seen him play a few games but he sounds pretty good

[BlueLion. 21,491]

I would hate to see Sidwell leave. A lot of people think he is not Chelsea quality, but I've seen him play a few times and he looks solid when playing with Mikel in particular. perhaps they compliment each other?
