Nice words, still can't help but feel a little sad when seeing a picture with him, VDV and Bale in our team though :(
Here you go, mate. Cheers! Have a great weekend!

Loved little modric. One of my favourite players back then.

Thanks for giving us the 'thumbs up'. In return, I'd like to give you the 'middle finger up' for refusing to play for us.

Champions' League and La Liga titles pale in comparison to an EFL Cup win and being called a King of White Hart Lane / Naming Rights Stadium* (*delete as appropriate).

Feh.

Modric and Bale both got their 'dream' moves. If they hadn't of moved we could easily have won the premier league. Instead Real boost their brand by winning 2 CL trophies, due to our 'special' relationship with Los Blancos and again we suffer in the same way as when we let Berbs, Teddy and he who shall not be named.

TBH I don't give a shit about Bale or Modric. I would rather have players like Winks that bleeds Spurs in our midfield when we open our brand new stadium because it will mean as much to him as a life long Spur as it does to me.

We need loyal players that want to bleed for the shirt. Modric and Bale used us as a stepping stone.

My first thought when I saw this thread was we'd be PL champions for years if we still had Modric, Bale and vdV. And proper CL contenders too. I know this logic could apply to anyone but it wasn't long ago and entirely possible that we could've kept them, vdV's age aside.

He was 29 when he left, which is a player's peak (28-29ish). He should have continued to be effective for at least another three seasons.

was thinking the other day, does Bale ever talk about/acknowledge Spurs anymore?

For fucks sake people on here still wanking about this chicken badge hating pillock.....

I lost all respect for Modric after his "big club" come and get me plea to Chelsea. Disrespectful ****.

He got on with the job admirably in his last season with us, but it was hard to get much enjoyment out of someone we all knew would be off at the first opportunity.
