Ozil is very similar to Modric.

Modric has a similar looking nose! Thats about it!

Only Spurs fans would compare the two. Any other football fan would choose Ozil over Mods every time.

More technical, more vison, faster and can actually SHOOT!

So do any deluded Yids still think we have a chance of sigining him? :rofl:

You say only Spurs would compare them both, yet say any other fan would choose Ozil over Luka every time. In order to make that choice you would have to compare and choose one of them. :duh:

They're not worth comparing cause Ozil is different class.

Happy?

Modric is different class. They don't play the same position Ozil is a proper number 10. Modric is a xavi.

Harry seemed pretty clued in on him, and kept on mentioning him, which makes me think we might have enquired or at least scouted (NOT that we will sign him before you all say!). I know that you would expect a football manager to know the talent around the globe, but 'Arry as a general rule tends not to know that much of foreign players judging by previous comments (IIRC he has made several comments in the past along the lines of "who's he?"). He seems to tend to leave it to the scouts.

Anyone agree? :shrug:

Modric would actually be perfectly suited to supplying a player like Oezil. I felt the same when we were after Arshavin. The reason people think Oezil is better is because he is more exciting. They said the same about Arshavin. It's only because they have blistering pace and trickery. Modric is a different style of player. He is more comparable to Schweinsteiger.

No. Harry should know about him. He's only one of the greatest prospects in football.

I imagine he's going to be a seriously sought-after property after this World Cup.

I'd love him to join Spurs, but the realist in me says it probably won't happen.

No harry just like every other top manager would of known about him since he was a youngster. There's no top player especially on Europe that top managers don't know about through scouts and general talk with people in the game.
This lad is unfortunaty out of our league, maybe in a few years but not now.

I was more impressed with Muller than with Ozil and that is saying a lot as Ozil looked fantastic yesterday. Muller looked strong and powerful and with a great passing touch. Much better than when I have seen him play for Munich if I am being honest.
