Kilishihunter:

Since Barca fans rigged the poll according to you, How come Song came second?

hopefulLandlord:


I said it was an open poll. Madrid fans voted for song while Barca fans voted for Modric but Barca fans votes came on top

Kilishihunter:

Well he won the 2008 euros with Spain and was a key player in the 2006 UCL final vs arsenal while still "bench warming" before pep came

hopefulLandlord:


2006 Barca usual starting 11 midfield were Xavi Deco and Rafa Marquez

it was until Deco left after 2008 season and Pep came that Iniesta became a regular starter. I don't expect Barca fans that started supporting the team because of Messi to know this including you

Kilishihunter:

I typed won the 2008 euros and played in the 2006 UCL final, Didn't your eyes see that? Iniesta was 24 when pep came in 2008 and became a peripheral part of his swashbuckling side so whether I support Barca even cause of Fati ain't your business
Why did your Modric had to wait until nearing his 30s to peak

hopefulLandlord:


That he "played" doesn't counter that fact. hell Marcelo "Played" yesterday and you wouldn't say he is a regular for us. Iniesta was down the pecking order in 2006 UCL winning side

Kilishihunter:

And he played in 11 UCL games in 2006 including coming on at HT in the final, Kindly show me Modric's UCL apps in 2013

hopefulLandlord:


2012 he was voted the worst signing by an open fan poll being besieged by Barca fans. at the end of that season he was one of the best players for real Madrid while your Alexander Song ended up the real worst signing

"ghosting"? lmao

hopefulLandlord:

Same 11 games. your point is?

Kilishihunter:

No modric is playing till age 36, So those that retired earlier wasted their time, Some kind weird logic ehn

Kilishihunter:

Iniesta was supposed to be among the least used by rijkaard in that season but xavi's injury made him see more gametime, A 22 year old iniesta contending with deco, sylvinho, van bommel still played in 11 games

FirstbornWds:


Even Zidane retired at 34. But we don't want to talk about that.

Kilishihunter:


By the way nobody told Modric to peak later

hopefulLandlord:


So you're saying he wasn't a regular starter and was just fortunate that the real regular starter got injured which made him get a look-in? okay. seems you're making my point for me

Kilishihunter:

Not fortunate, If his 22 year old self wasn't good enough he would have been sent back to Barça B or have been named the flop of the season like modric

hopefulLandlord:
Nobody told Iniesta to be a bench warmer while Modric was already playing regular football for his own club

hopefulLandlord:


Modric was voted at the middle of the season. towards the end he was regarded to be one of Madrid's best players of the season. I don't expect Barca fans who started supporting the club much later to know this

either way Iniesta was a bench warmer who was lucky injuries hit. hell, even Marcelo and Nacho got lucky yesterday too due to injuries and suspensions

Ibukzy:
So Zlatan is better than the Real Ronaldo with this your Logic

BoomBucks:

mostob:
Messi has 7 Balond'or compared to wasiu who has 5 yet you people still didn't agree that Messi is better.

Now because Xavi and Iniesta nor get Balond'or, Modric is better than both.

Which kind of logic is that?

Make una stop adding powdered pepper to your meth abeg..

Kilishihunter:

You dey mind them, Anytime Vardrid has a good game with modric doing something unusual, These guys would jump out of their lockers to disturb us, Wait first you even see modric for that game before that pass to rodrygo , Someone small pedri pocketed
Person wey peak late when xavi and iniesta don dey prepare to finish their illustrious careers

pu7pl3:


This is false...Modric became a regular starter after Mourinho left in 2013...he was a regular in Ancelotti's hybrid midfield alongside Xabi and Di Maria and it was his cross that made 92:48 possible

MJBOLT:

Lewandowski next season

Lewandowski next season

Oboi...dz insult just too much ........ I dare any Madrid fans to show me the match Modric dominate a midfield of xavi and inesta both at euro 2008 and during their club career. FFs xavi made 4 assists and in a single Classico match.These guys outplayed paul scholes and co in two ucl finals. Spain practically won euro 2012 without a recognized striker.
