Hahaha we'd have strolled top 4 at a canter with Modric this season.
Yes. I mean last year we scored more prem points with a ginger maniac in charge.
We had a real top player in Bale.
Why do you think that? Real finished 15 points behind Barca with Modders pulling the strings last season. We literally got more prem points with Modders gone.
And we didnt have Ronaldo, Benzema, Ozil, Higuan etc.

yup same 3 people endlessly arguing, chasing their tales.Every thread is the same now.
Every thread is the same now.
Empty possession? Modric dictated our 2 highest scoring seasons in Premier League history. Dictated our only two top 4 PL finishes ever. Dictated us to a league cup final where we lost in a shootout to United.
Defoe scoring drought? He dictated Defoe's highest scoring season ever.
Bent scoring drought? Bent scored 17 in 43 games in his only seasons with Modric and had 8 in 36 without Modric.
Him and Keane only played half a season together after Keane's weird return from his childhood club.
Adebayor scoring drought? He dictated Adebayor's second highest scoring season ever.
He dictated Van der Vaart to a top 5 strike rate in our Premier League history. Adebayor is also third and we saw how he did last season when Modric was removed last season and not replaced.
Got Ramos fired? He started 5 games before Ramos got the sack and it was his first season.
He dictated us playing the best football most of us have ever seen during the first two thirds of the 2011-2012 season and to a champions league quarter-final.
Every thread is the same now.
Modric Is the best footballer I have seen in a Spurs shirt.What did Modric dictate exactly? The last pairing of strikers we had that were getting service were Berbs and Keano (before Modric). Modric dictated endless empty possession. Most of our strikers etc had problems scoring: Bent, Keane, Defoe, Crouch, Pav etc etc. Bale went on fire when Modders left. Scored twice as many goals in less games.
In fact when Modric broke his leg, Kranj came in and scored and assisted for fun in his absence and we made CL.
In his first season Modders could not even dictate hardly any assists with frickin Ronaldo in the team and the special one in charge! He dictated worst signing award from Real fans.
Now he can't possibly fail in a team with Bale and Ronaldo...Even Modders can't fuck up setting up two of the best wingers in the world. All you have to do for Modric to dictate things, is spend all of the money forever.
Modirc "making us tick" is probably the biggest misnomer in our modern history. One season he dictated Defoe having the offside record in the prem. Another season he dictated out worst ever start to a season where we were bottom of the table. He dictated Bales losing streak with us. He dictated Ramos out the door.

Don't keep posting this, it proves nothing. He had been at Real about 3 months by this point
Real were shit last season because Mourinho spent all year having an emotional meltdown/temper tantrums.
