WHEN LUKA MODRIC SLIPPED FROM THE FINGERS OF MANCHESER CITY..

The year was 2008, and Manchester City was not yet a Arab oil club it is today, that all came in the following year 2009. In the year 2008 Manchester Coty were in disarray a their owner from Thailand Thaksin Shinawatra was facing political battle back in Thailand he was ousted from power and all of his bank accounts were frozen. Now in 2008 Manchester City were very keen o buy a youngster from Croatia called Luka Modric, from the Croatian club Dinamo Zagreb , and the price was then 0nly ten million pounds. But as there was no money Manchester City dilly dallied and Luka Modric slipped through their fingers, as Tottenham Hotspurs paid the club the ten million pounds, and purchased Luka Modric on the advise of Harry Redknapp, the amount was then thirty million pounds. He was then sold to Real Madrid for a huge amount of money. Manchester City then brought David Silva once the club was sold to the Sheikh of U.A.E. So it is up to you to decide who was a better servant to the club Luka Modric or David Silva. That year 2008 Manchester city finished 17 , seventeenth on the table, and to say shamelessly that they do not buy trophy is just cheating themselves. Luka Modric spent four years at Tottenham Hotspurs, and was unveiled along with Huerlo Gomes and Giovani Santos.
