I dont agree with this. He's an employee and he's under contract...him being happy has little to do with if he stays or not for me. as long as he performs on the pitch and acts professional then thats reallly all that matters.
Its also important not to bow to player power as well
i take it you would have sold him last summer and you indeed called for it? i'm glad levy didnt follow that line of thinking to be honest otherwise we wouldnt have even had the season we have had so far
do you remember games that we have played without modric? west brom aside (and even that was ouch and go for large spells) we have looked extremely pedestrian and void of ideas.
its easy to point fingers and say that we dont need modric, especially when we are doing badly......its easier to find fault all over the place at that juncture....but would you then say the same about the likes of ade, lennon, sandro, parker, bale, kaboul etc etc? all players that tecnically havent performed well during our bad run.
another thing i wouldnt mind raising is that you say that we sell him and use it to invest in the squad...how many players does that get us? and are any of them better footballers than modric? if not then why sell him? Unless we are flat broke that we cant buy players without selling?
i dont get the idea of selling your best players. it makes no sense to me. you'd have sold him to chelsea and we would have been well and truly fudged then
