That's the thing, in no way does it force us to sell Modric, and they can't bank on it making Modric so annoyed that he forces a move through.
If they did decide to bid for someone else, it's because they didn't think Modric was worth the money...not our fault we turn down a bid that is clearly too low.

Hmm....Just not meant for him at the club unfortunately, hopefully we'll shift Bassong soon as well, bring in some extra funds for the striker kitty.
Not really, as I think Defoe is a quality player given the 'right' supply.
He's just not had the right supply for the past 12 years then?
Interestingly Gio is ripping up the Olympics. I wonder if AVB might want to see him in training as a possible option for the right of the front 3?
Gio playing well for Mexico shocker. And in a tournament where most of the players are under 23 years old.
People are getting massive hard-ons for Neymar, Oscar, Cleverly and Caulker for doing the same thing.
I have a bit of sympathy for Bassong. For pre-season he's been played at left back twice and frankly he's crap at it. There's a fair chance he'll still be here come the start of the season as I've not heard any transfer rumours about a move. There's a good player in there somewhere but he's rather unfocused which is his main failing.

Oscar and Neymar are also rated for their club performances.
Caulker is rated because he has recieved extremely high praise on every single loan spell he has had.
Cleverly? I don't know.
Gio? Not impressed at club level.
A world of difference.
It's settled. If GDS can look quality against Gabon, he can definitely cut it in the Premiership.
But what about when he rips apart the likes of Brazil, Argentina and USA which he does whenever Mexico meet them? Or do they not count?

Gio not impressed in 4 years playing for a manager who hated him.
Everyone has apparently been given a clean slate by AVB - out of him, Gomes, Defoe, Jenas, Bentely and Bassong I'd say he's got as good a chance as any of surviving the window.

Every time? I think not.
