Ok fair enough Modric has been heavily linked with Manchester United and why not, he’s our best player and a true talent so you would expect him to be link with clubs like this.
What really bothers me is that a lot of reports say United are looking at £20m, yes I know they are only reports but even the dumbest reporter surely must have been having a laugh when the fee was said to be around £20m. You can pretty much double that before you get Modric’s true valuation.
If Fergie only wants to spend £20m that’s fine, we’ll sell him Jermaine Jenas instead with Robbie Keane but £20m wouldn’t even buy him Modric’s turd he left down the toilet.
Seriously I don’t know who makes these figures up, I am not going to blame Man Utd because I know it wasn’t them but the people who report this stuff, do they even watch football? If Modric wants to leave it will be difficult to hold on to him and so we have to rely on the fact that when he says Spurs are on the way to greatness that he really believes it and wants to stay. There’s no doubt in my mind that United will try to sign him, I guess we will find out if he is loyal and if not…… They can expect to pay a hell of a lot more than £20m. Levy is shrude and would hold them to ransom before he ever sold Modders.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
i wouldn’t sell him for 40 m
Great player but doesnt get enough assists or goals, and as soon as Hudds back he gets pushed out to the left where he is ineffective anyway.
I would sell for 40 million, sign Marin for 18million who is exactly the same except scores goals and plays out wide right or left side
I wouldn’t sell him for any price. He’s happy here, why should it even be considered?
Exactly. Who on Earth do you replace him with? Don’t consider anything for him, Harry said he wouldn’t sell him for one billion pounds but we’ll see I suppose.
It would be different if he wanted to leave – but the little lad is as loyal as they come. He is a legend in the making, make him feel welcome. I’d even go as far as signing another Croatian when Kranjcar leaves to make him feel all the more at home.
I love it when our best players are linked away from our club for 20 million (modders), 25 million(Bale). Yet when were linked for players, shite ones its always in excess of 15 million (kenwyn Jones, Scott parker, carlton cole). Not being funny but if Palacios was 15 million then modric is 5 times that. Mr Levy please tell old red nose to do one
60-80 and thats even maybe lol 20 mil plus berba rooney hernandez and vidic then sweet
i find it frustrating that media seem intent in making man utd stronger by doing whatever they can to try and unsettle our top players.even thou levy said none of our top stars are for sale,we all know what man utd want,they get. i want us to be up there and hopefully competing with the likes of man u,arse,city and chelsea but it will be hard with the biast media towards man u in this country.
i also think we need to have our manager postion cleared up to.
despite being asked over and over again about the chelsea job and the change in the betting market
harry not once has said no im staying and happy at spurs.hes only ever said,its news to me and i havent heard from anyone.
Some Scottish idiot called Ian McGarry, who always seems to be pro Chelsea, has just said that Modders is going to Chelsea for £30m, according to him he wants to leave Spurs. Utter bilge !!!!! The same journo has also stated that Sneijder is going to Manure, and Ashley Young to Liverpool.
I’m sure Krancjar could do the job Modric has done… 40 million in the bank – ka-ching!
what planet are you on?
The 20m is a false starter. This, I am afraid, is very much part of the United machine.
They start off at 20m in July, rejected. Just before the end of a July dominated by will he/won’t he/friends of Modric say… United follow with a £28m bid, rejected.
Mid Aug, after an interview with ex United players highlighting Modric’s stepping up to a CL team etc.. united bid £30m.
Realistically the only way to silence these is to show Modric, Bale VDV etc.. That we are stepping up and strengthing, by buying a top top striker.
We need to convince our best players that we are serious about our progress, otherwise United will be the easy option.
I would say 20 mill is about right, based on the fact that Barcelona think they can get Cesc Fab for 30 mill.
40 mill is just a joke, I wouldn’t expect to pay that for Sneijder who has double the qualities of Modric.
The Jan transfer window was a shambles with Carroll going for 35 mill!!!! If they waited till this summer I strongly believe he would of gone for no more than 15 mill.
I’m personally quite bored with utd buying your players! I hope you keep them and pip man city to the Champs league spot next year!
Good luck for next year.
Buy sneider or fabregas then????
Triffic, do you have an original thought in your head or do you simply regurgitate points of view that others have already posted? btw shrewd is spelled SHREWD…and spellcheck is free but then I’m sure you are shrewd enough to figure that out
