Modric in Madrid

Good first half, pulled the strings nicely. Perfect game to make your first start given the quality of the opponents, but Madrid making heavy weather of it especially in the final third.

we're just hoping he does really badly so we can get him back on loan in Jan

Was replaced on the hour by Ozil, didn't do a lot wrong today, tidy start for him and looks like another debut win for him.

Don't care what anyone says, I love the little fella.

Luka pulled a tame pea roller past the post just before he went off. I've posted several times before that the Madrid fans will have to get used to it very quickly, didn't expect it to be during his first start though

they will already be winning 3-0 so no pressure?

Yeah, I don't blame him for having a pop, just that both shots he's had in Spain so far have literally been tame daisy-cutters. Which happened to him here until one day he started banging them in. They were well worth the wait.
