Luka Modric is set to join AC Milan after the club world cup. Being perfectly honest, I didn't see that coming.
Got confirmed yesterday too. I’d have loved one last dance here. That little genius is still probably the best I’ve seen in my lifetime at the club, with Bale and Kane his closest competition. Appreciate he probably couldn’t do 90 mins now in the Prem but doubt there’d be anyone better for 25-30 mins off the bench. Having some of the youngsters to learn from him too would’ve been invaluable. Once in a generation midfielder.
'Special' is right! Possibly the best striker of a football in my 60 years of supporting Spurs and would place him in my Top 5 Spurs players overall. An amazing talent, that we nearly managed to lose!! https://www.facebook.com/share/v/18vHAa8dst/
Bale remains, for me, my favourite ever Spurs player to watch. Nothing we've had before or since has come close to his explosive ability to change a game in a moment of quality. I have never seen a player torment defences like him.
Harry not being here for two of those years probably shows you the level ahead he was of his strike competition. Subconsciously maybe I’ve been too harsh on Solanke/ Richarlison because ultimately having had Kane for a decade I probably forgot what “normal” strikers are capable of and have probably judged them at times in comparison to him, which is probably unfair.
I think it is accurate to say that the gap between Kane and Solanke is the same as the gap between Solanke and Richarlison.
Just got relegated. Signs up for another one. Bit of an odd one, as he seems to be joining as backup. They've got ****y-Ballsack and Emerson, plus they just signed Diouf. They've also got Scarles, but he might get loaned out now, I guess. He'll get some game time during the AFCON.
