gibbsy as us caribbeans would say "your playing the arse" what part dont you understand that league wise spurs have been in relegation form since the turn of 2008 with your boy wonder marlbranque in the side, it has not been because modric signed? more like other senior pros at the club have yet to come of age in the prem putting in consistant performances.

if arsenal injuries cleared up they have alot of light weight players rosicky, fabregas, walcott etc.. but there technical ability plus movement on/off the ball is second to none? for lennons size he attacks and helps corluka/chimbonda defensively? looking at palacios when he plays the ball he always makes himself available for a return pass which is the type of players modric loves so i see no reason why it couldnt work?

Our bug bear this season: Defending corners, free kicks and set pieces is what suggests Modric in the middle giving away free kicks with his crappy tackling won't help IMO.

In fact, even worse if the fact that we have been push overs. And Modric, more than anyone, literally has been pushed over all season.

And I am not even suggesting JJ and Palacious is working in the middle. We won away from home with that combo. So rare these days. I am certain it is the better option.

:lol: I really prefer Modric on the left but I am tempted to say "put him in the middle" for fear of being lumped in with Gibbs.

Nothing personal Gibbsy ol' boy!

Ever wondered what it would be like arguing with an 'I Speak Your Weight' machine or the Talking Clock? Wonder no more!

We are now bound by space and time. When people see your name, they will think of our unity.
