| | Yeah, bollocks to signing incredibly gifted footballers who are some of the greatest talents in the world, just cos they've gone off the boil a bit and have an ego. |

I just think as a club we're past the stage of making star signings just for the sake of it, like when we tried to sign Rivaldo.

| Jan, my post was mocking the idea of us saying no to someone like him. Clearly it's not going to happen, but I find it a bit ridiculous to suggest that we wouldn't want to sign players of his calibre.  |

Agreed. How are we suddenly so Bertie Big McBollocks that we can say no to a former FIFA World Player of the Year? Even a fat, partying, bucktoothed one? |

| I see your points. I'm just glad that the club spunked the money on Modric - a young man with motivation as he has a lot to prove - rather than the older and more problematic Ronny.
