Very incorrect. I would have loved to have seen us sign Modric, as I rate him very highly, but the fact you think he is "the one last big name" that would complete the team to me is astonishing.
Hopefully we will sign some players of Modric's calibre in the summer, but I think most people know that the areas that are key for us are left back, possibly right back, and most certainly on the flanks. Modric is a very talented hole player, who can do a job on the wings, but is far from what we need, essentially, even if he could play well out of position.
Still gutted we didn't sign him, though.
