🗣️ Marcelo Bielsa: "The hardest player to find in football is the 8. I named it 'the Modrić', who defends like a 6 and attacks like a 10.

He has the ability to defend, the skills to attack and understanding the game in both directions." pic.twitter.com/4t7AL1Croa

So who was it that found Modric for us?

So who was it that found Modric for us?

Riccardo Pecini, apparently

How Tottenham signed Luka Modric and how they very nearly didn't get him at all

Modric will welcome his old team to the home of his new one on Tuesday and will do so with an established reputation as the best central midfielder of his generation

Spotted by Pecini, advanced by Comolli, sealed by Levy. Sounds like it wouldn't have happened for us without all of those three playing their part.

I have seen some great midfield players in our shirt over the years and he is among the best.

Not just one of the best. His consistency has been immense. Can't remember seeing him having a bad game ever!

I agree, but Gazza, Ossie, are up there as well.

Wow! Once in 20 years...

Outstanding record... Something to be really proud of.

[mudshark]

Phenomenal player. A trophy-winning swansong in N17 would be a fitting coda to his career. Shame it'll never happen.

Stones! Stones! Ffs.
