What's Silva got to do with anything? He'd be direct replacement for Gareth Barry.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

I don't get this Silva-Modric comparison at all..it's a myth

Aside from stature they are completely different players and would compliment each other in the team in the same way as say Xavi and Iniesta do

And i don't get the City- Barca comparison, even if it's difficult to compare player attributes, you have to ackowledge that We have a formation, our players have roles to play and it's different setup from the best team in the world. I really can't see how Modric is more like Barry than Silva but it's a matter of perception ispose. Tbh, if i had to choose one of Silva/ Modric for Barry's position, I'd choose Silva. Cheers

Modric got three goals and three assists in the league last season.

His defensive works impressed me every time I've seen him but like NQDP said, would challenge Barry more than Silva in our line up.

It's still rubbish, though.

Think Modric is a good player, think Silva is a different player, think anyone who could get Barry out of out starting XI needs a medal.

Yeah. I get hard on just thinking about him. Not in a homosexual though. Of course.

It will be kept alive until transfer deadline day, so we can mercilessly rip into paulh for a couple of days, before giving him a lifetime ban. If Modric does come to us, it will be locked immediately, and replaced by a thread on what Gary Neville's up to at the moment.

I give up. I love both Zabaleta and Modric in extremely homosexual way and yes, I want to be in them.

Silva goes wherever the ball is.

Would love Modric, like having another Silva in the team, infinitely better than Barry.. Not gonna happen though.
