I guess he'd replace Scholes? I can't see Levy selling to anyone in the PL tbh, unless you pay big big big money.

I doubt he'll care at all as he'll be getting a ton of money. And no he's not a scholes player, Modric is a Lampard type player. Box to box. Iniesta, Xavi, Silva, all of those box to box and concentrate on creating chances, keeping the ball and perhaps goal threats. Scholes now (maybe former Scholes you're right) is the Xabi Alonso, Pirlo type player.

I'd give you an example of who he'd replace at United but we don't have one single Modric type player apart from Anderson lmao. Our midfield fuckyducks. Kagawa + Modric + Scholes/Carrick is fapworthy.

I honestly thought he played a lot deeper role for Spurs, his stats are terrible for that role then. He should be assisting more if he's playing box to box, I thought he was a sitting back midfielder. The pass before the assist if you will.

Nah they had Sandro for that role. You probably thought that because of how willing Modric is. He is literally box to box which takes incredible stamina. He doesn't go into the attacking box AS much as Van Der Vart for example does for Spurs. Modric still did the stuff Scholes sort of does, go and fetch the ball and start play. But he'll continue it and keep getting the ball wherever he is.

He does need more goals but his passes make up for that, breathtaking player.
