Hi all,
We here also think it was "the play" all along (one side wanted more money - the other side tried to pay less but upped its bidding in time)...
Also Tottenham played very nice abroad an won 5:0 even without Modric! [:)]
BTW, how did Kranjcar play? Did you watch the game Robert?

Our turn tonight - it's that potentially tricky all British affair with Hearts of Midlothian. Great name for a football club [:)]
Come on you Spurs!
(hopefully.............) [&:]
Best of Luck Robert! [:)]
P.S.
We heard that Modric will not play due to some small injury... I think this is still Chelsea-Tottenham game with transfer (he can't play for Spurs if he wants to play in Europe for Chelsea)...
Is that true?
I think its very convenient that Modric did not play, when added to Harry Redknapp's softening stance - he is now saying we may have to let him go etc. This seems to have coincided with Chelsea saying they are not sure if they will make another bid.
Personally I think Fabregas has crystallised the issue. His price tag has "set the bar". If he is worth £30m + £5m add-ons, why would Chelsea pay the same for Modric? Spurs probably feel they have pushed Chelsea about as high as they can go - maybe a couple of mill more, but no less.
I am convinced now that he will go though.

Standard procedure. If he'd played last night Modric would've been cup-tied for European competitions until next season. If he'd been expecting Modric to stay, or actively trying to keep hold of him, then he probably would've played last night.

Really? I'm sorry! [:D][:D][:D][:D]
So you really are just a flower child? (As AW1Steve looks at his Viking broad sword and shield with Norman family coat of arms on the wall). [:D][:D][:D][:D]

Not I. I have no time to play most of the games I've collected over the last 4 years, Civ 4, MTW 2, Harpoon Ultimate, War in the East.
