Great footballer saw him when he first showed signs playing against Arsenal in UCL qualifier. Was the best player on the pitch but Arsenal won. Wenger commentated after the game that he thought that he was a great footballer but players from that area were very expensive. Zagreb eventually signed him on a very long contract (10 years or something). Hopefully its money well spent but its not really a creative midfield problem at Spurs. Defence is **** when injuries hit and need new GK. A left winger possibly if they do decide to play Modric in the centre. Hopefully Bale comes back fit and ready cause he was promising before his injury.

Bale is great, hopefully he will stay injury free.

And if Modric is as successful as he is on FM, well done Spurs

Newcastle fans were devestated on the day the news broke Spurs had got him. I was a tad anxious when i heard he had visited St James like. Don't mind him going to Tottenham, least his career might go forward.
