He was really good, dictated play really well, similar to, dare I say, Carrick. Stronger than he looks and really mature, head up all the time, great passing.
Modric had an average game for a poor Croatian side. If he hadnt been a spurs player I doubt any of us would have notice him in this game.
That said he showed a few glimpse of the brilliant player he can be for us. However what impressed me with him was his workrate. He ran tireless the whole 90 min and even though he is small and looks lightweighted he gave away some beating.
