I've actually much preferred adiepf as a poster since he stopped posting his fantasy ITK, but this harps back to the bad old days.
Would you say that the reason that Fabregas, Nasri and the recently departed Clichy want to leave the scum are solely to do with Wenger? Because he is tactically shite and wont spend more that £10 on someone over the age of 6. Would you fuck.
Modric wanting to treble his wage and leave the club to join one that won the double less than 2 years ago has fuck all to do with twitchy bollocks in the dugout.
Levy fan boy.
He's no more a Levy fan boy than you are a Redknapp one.
I don't think Modric is leaving because of anything Redknapp has said, but Redknapp certainly played a big part in us not getting CL football. I'm sure the 300% pay rise Chelsea are possibly offering is right up there with his reasons for leaving, but let's not completely absolve Redknapp for any blame either - any more than Cliche and Nasri possibly wouldn't be leaving if Arsenal had actually won the league when they had a chance instead of pissing it away and finishing fourth.
And it's one thing for us to know what the various attractions of Chelsea over us are and to chew them over on an internet forum, it's not quite the same when your most senior manager (paid an annual salary of millions) - at a time when your best employee has just made some very disparaging remarks - endorses them. Especially when we all know it's bollocks. Chelsea aren't more ambitious, they just have more money to chuck at their ambitions.
It's hardly surprising Modric feels it's OK to air his thoughts to the media with our Manager's example is it ?
