How's Ratface Getting On?

[matthew.absurdum]

At least we don't sell him to Chelsea, while Arsenal sell their best player to Man Utd

 

[Davo99]

Mesut Ozil. The most overated player in world football.

Luka Modric and Kaka are much better players. I actually think Ozil is the worst central midfielder Real Madrid have and I watch them every week. I'd take Alonso, Modric, Khedira, Essien and Kaka over him anyday.

No. The most overated player in world football is Di Maria. I don't understand why he is so expansive.

You're right. I was almost there, but you're actually right. Di Maria is the most overated player. Ozil second.

 

[THX2208]

Most over rated player Franck Ribery

 

[absolute bobbins]

Most over rated player is Pikey Wilshere, in England anyway. The rest of the world had a look and just said "Meh!"

When Croatia played Spain at the Euro's Modric was the best player on the pitch.
Xavi and Iniesta both asking for his shirt. Incredible talent, we were so lucky to have
him play for Spurs.

Crikey, i miss him!

 

[ecce_tottenham]

They always say you never truly really miss someone till they'av gone

Couldn't really miss him whilst he was here.

Loved our little Moddle

Loved our little Moddle

Very true - but you get my drift

Crikey, i miss him!

One thing you often hear about Modric, whether it's on the training ground or in matches, is that "you can't get near him." And that's really true. Some players you can slow down by fouling, but Modric is usually clever enough to skip past those kinds of challenges and his ability to create space is truly special. I remember reading where youngsters like Bostock praised him for that. And it's always evident in matches, and clear from that clip vs. Spain, who are otherwise great at closing down.

And that outside of the boot ball to Rakitic. Absolutely perfect. Still haunts us today. Rakitic scored a header from a similar spot earlier this season for Sevilla and all it did was bring back hurtful memories.

Those who thought, and especially those who still think, that Modric was/is a "flop" at Madrid are completely off the mark.

 

[Misfit]

Him Dembele and Sandro as a central 3. Fuckaduck.

 

[idontgetit]

Crikey, i miss him!

Jesus well that there alone tells you why we've been harder on the eye to watch this year. And especially why Scott Parker's had a harder time of it in the middle

 

[dspursusa]

Crikey, i miss him!

You can come back now all is forgiven

 

[King of Otters]

No. The most overated player in world football is Di Maria. I don't understand why he is so expansive.

Works hard, good stamina, good technique, pacey, chips in with a few goals. What more do you want from a winger?

 

[3Dnata]

Just scored from outside the box 5-2 to Madrid.

Here's Darren Bent heaping some praise on Modric an backing-up that (underlined) point:
