Luka Modric

[Justin_3d 1,140]

So Madrid paid 33 mill for Modric and we payed 32 mill for Hazard.

hahaha Madrid!

Spurs are soooo fucked!

AVB at the helm and no anchor, their ship is drifting far away from Port Top 4.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Yes! Newcastle will now surely be at least fourth.

I hope so, but I see more chances for Arsenal or yes even Liverpool!

Nah, Arsenal has lot of problems, they just lost on Nuri, while Lpool will spent lot of time trying to gel with players, they might be quite good against big teams, but smaller ones will give them problems. Newcastle (if they wont sell anyone) is much more balanced team right now and will not be under pressure realy.

One thing I have learnt over the past few years: Never count Le Arse out. They somehow find their way into the top 4.

A bit gutted really, always silently hoped that we would come in last minute and sign him (haha), great player... good signing for Madrid.

[Amblève. 4,995]

Pjanic plays in a position where we're packed. We've got Oscar, Mata and Hazard and a couple more all playing in the positions he play. He wouldn't be bought as a SFL replacement.

No, Pjanic is playing as a CM. He was a CAM at Lyon but ever since joining Roma he's mostly used in the central midfileder position where he's been playing for Bosnia too since I can remember.

There was the talk that Jose wants Modric to play more offensive then he did at Spurs but Mourinho seems to really like Ozil so I can't see the point of buying Luka for 33mil to keep him on the bench or to bench Ozil.

I believe he'll be spending more of his time in the midfield along Khedira, Xabi and Diarra.

Anyway, I'm disappointed Levy, I expected this to go on until the very last minute

[Pizy 18,415]

Is this even official?

Not seeing anything on BBC, Sky, or ESPN websites.

[Blue Traveler 256]

DM says its 27 mill pounds!

A bunch stupids running that club! We offered them 40 mill but they didn't except it! now they have to let him go for 27 million pound!!! Levy you idiot!

[BlueLyon 9,359]

I guess they will play this:

-------------Casillas-------------

Arbeloa-Ramos-Pepe-Marcelo

----Alonso-Khedira-Modric----

---------------Ozil----------------

------Benzema-Ronaldo--------

so modric to madrid,,,Abramovich save your money for neymar,,Hazard Mata and Neymar behind Torres,, will rip apart every defence,

[bababoom 4,478]

Neymar's good but overrated, he will cost 35 million plus... not really worth it.

[blue_swaggin_96 96]

this is a pointless for spurs, they could never replace a modric like player, im telling you!

and this " partnership agreement " mean spurs will be the feeder club to Real madrid, bale to real ? next i can see it.

thats a shame english league uses another talent, is pretty stupid to me, if they had sold him to us last summer they could have strengthen ther squad massively by know.

idiots!

i dont want neymar, his too small, i dont care how good he was @ olympics, im pretty sure chelsea board.

he has madrid written all over him!

[gr123 167]

Re this partnership agreement - you get the feeling that Madrid just agreed to anything just to get the transfer done..

Spurs aren't a bad side, but I can't imagine a club like Madrid have any interest in working with them, just handy to have a sort of first option on their players I guess.
