Guest gggg Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Modric-tastic. Or Coloccini-tastic? bloody hope not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Logic Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Is he even the type of player we need? We're crying out for a centre midfielder and a striker yet people seem desperate for us to spunk the remainder of our transfer budget on a winger magician.

ponsaelius Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Tbf we have 2 able wingers in the whole squad. Injury to either Routledge or Jonas and we're totally fudged. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Question: just how close were you really to signing Modric? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Question: just how close were you really to signing Modric? Pretty close. Bid accepted, he came and visited the training ground according Allardyce. I see no reason why he would lie. Not sure what went wrong though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest antz1uk Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Question: just how close were you really to signing Modric? he had talks in a local hotel regarding contract, (copthorne if i remeber right) had a look around the training ground, then at the eleventh hour spurs sent people up to the hotel and the next thing he had signed for them, if my information at the time was correct Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Didn't we agree terms with the player but Ashley and Co couldn't agree how the fee was to be paid. I remember Modric saying something along the lines of he was a Newcastle player until the very last minute. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Nah, I'm pretty sure it was Fat Sam. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/2298242/Newcastle-on-verge-of-signing-Luka-Modric.html http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-561745/Newcastle-set-smash-club-record-fee-20m-Croatia-playmaker-Luka-Modric.html Then, this happened. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/apr/26/tottenhamhotspur.newcastleunited Edit: Maybe it was Keegan.

I remember Modric saying something along the lines of he was a Newcastle player until the very last minute. Man I'd love to see that little wizard in a Toon top! Fucking Ashley man. Its all a smoke-screen to make Spurs better. Redknapp nearly coming to us, then Spurs, Modric n'all. Its like he's using us as the scapegoat to why players managers leave, then says "actually, we don't want them," paving the way for them to go to Spurs, and Spurs get away blame free Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
