I remember media reports of him being too weak... Then I started watching him and quickly saw he had a low centre of balance and an awareness / first touch that would take him away from danger.

I was on holiday in Croatia the summer we signed Modric. When I speculated that he might have been too lightweight for the PL, the locals emphasised that he had the guts and tenacity to compensate for his slight build. I think those are the ingredients (so far) missing from Lo Celso's game.I remember Modric being too weak

But either way Modric is a very different type of midfielder to Lo Celso. Gio was supposed to add the creative spark for us (VDV is a better comparison from that era) but often hid away in games and didn’t take any risks.
Happy to see him enjoying his football again back in Spain let’s hope we get a decent fee for him that can go towards some creative attacking wingbacks.
