guess you missed the bit where we DMF said realistically. Would have said Gourcuff but he went to Lyon, indeed all last season i talked about gourcuff. But Godcubed sums up those two in his reply: I'd have Modric over Gourcuff any day. More versatile, works harder, is more consistent, and already adapted to the Prem. Also, since when has Modric lacked "that magic"? He's chock full of flair.Modric? Out of every player in the world you could have you'd choose Modric. He is a very good player, but doesn't have that magic to change a game in an instant, or if he does I've very rarely seen it... Surely you'd rather Fabregas/Gourcuff/ even Wilshere...
Modric dictates games like a maestro, thats exactly the kind of player we need in the middle, let rooney, berbs, hernandez, nani et al create the moments of magic that get the goals, whithout scholes we often lack creative control of the middle, he would give us that back in spades.

i cant see you getting a striker either, If you get Luiz that will be the only piece of business im my opinionI can't see us signing a striker. Im shocked that we are even bidding that much for a player in the window mate.
