      @@Raymond191085 Modric was already one of the best, in 2010 was the best mid in PL - Sir Alex Ferguson!!! Marcelo Bielsa said: after game vs Spain in 2012 Euro ( Spain played: Ramos, Pique, Xavi, Xavi Alonso, Iniesta, David Silva - people say best in a world, tonight I saw that smaller Croat, Luka playing 6, 8 and 10 positions ... He looked like he's playing against schoolboys!!! )
      Turkish television commentators said: Luka was so dominant against EC and WC winner's Spain Golden generation, that Spain needed all the help from Refs, Spain should of played with 10 man from 20 minute in first half - Ramos... Ref closed his eyes when penalty's on Mandukic and Corluka were obvious!!? Referee mentally destroyed Croatia, but Spain was destroyed by Modric!!!
      Yet, Spain barely pass the ball to Iniesta, who played the ball with his hand and from obvious Offside - they scored the goal for 1 - 0 and game end!!!
      Real Madrid imidietly bought Luka Modric, they saw how he dominate Spain midfield ...

    While i agree this might sound controversial, but, i see Modric as a synthesis of Xavi and Iniesta. He has both of their strengths with silky smooth passing, cold blooded dribling and a keen ability to dictate both the tempo and style of the game. Moreover, he has an out of box shooting sense that can hunt the keepers when they least expect it. He is vicious as hell and hardworking maestro that can do everything a midfielder required to do. Versatile talent that can fit into any side. Although, it should be mentioned that his duo had been completed with Kross and they have dominated a lot of midfielders during their heyday. Now with all that said, Xavi and Iniesta remains as the perfect duo the footballing world had ever seen (for now at least), but if there is one player who can be considered greater than them, it should be only Modric for his complete command of the midfield and ability to be there at the crutch moments. For all their greatness, Barcelona did not manage to won consecutive wins in CL and i think this little genius here is the key difference in Madrid's eventual superiority in their runs.

      If I had to chose one thing that separates Modrić from other good and excelent midfielders- it would be his awarenes , natural understanding of the game and positioning. Well... those are three things :). Often times it seems like he sees the field and all the players from a birds perspective, and it was always like that, even in his days at Dinamo Zagreb.

    Luka Modric is one of the greatest midfielders of his generation and at the age of 38, he has shown no signs of his age. He is definitely in the same tier as the likes of Xavi Iniesta and Zidane. Getting to where he is today, he’s had to overcome a lot of challenges because he had a difficult childhood, during his time at Tottenham, there were doubts as to whether or not he could handle the physicality and demanding nature of the premier league and many football fans have known this for a while now, in his debut season at Real Madrid he was voted as the worst La Liga signing. That’s right he was seen as a massive flop and at the age of 27, he hadn’t won a major trophy in the top 5 leagues in Europe, and 11 years later at Real Madrid he has accumulated 26 trophies he has won everything there is to win at club level, he’s a 6time champions league winner and he’s also won a Ballon Dor even if it was very contending. Hey, he went from worst signing of the season to being a Ballon Dor winner and what he’s done with the Croatia national team has been nothing short of exceptional as given the population of the country, he took them to a World Cup final in 2018 where he was the best player in the tournament and has taken them very far in a lot of major tournaments while also having good teammates around him.
    He’s very impressive when it comes to his technical ability vision composure passing and has an incredible work rate without the ball. Modric is so well rounded in a sense that from an attacking perspective he’s able to pick out passes out of nowhere and can do a trivela pass from his own half while also tracking back to cover ground and this was a notable aspect of his game when he was in his prime. He is absolutely in the conversation when we wanna talk about “who’s the greatest midfielder of all time”, but for me, I think that Xavi and Iniesta are slightly better than Modric. In this debate there’s been a bit of recency bias and people consistently use the longevity argument, I get it Modric has gotten better in his 30s and has played some of the best football of his career in recent years, since Xavi and Iniesta retired at the age of 34, many people have forgotten that they both had an edge over him for a long period of time and when they were all playing, he wasn’t on the same level as them, that’s for a different conversation. Anyways he’s one of a kind and he could potentially spend another season at Real Madrid and with him unlikely to ever play in a major tournament for Croatia ever again, I advise people to enjoy every moment of Modric’s last piece of magic.

    As a Barcelona fan, Modric has been in his prime since 2014 right up till last year. With the depart of Kroos, he now plays a more bench role but to do it at his age, Salud.
    Not to forget that Madrid defeated a midfield of DeBruyne, Silva and Rodri with Kroos/Modric, Camavinga and Bellingham. The City's trio for me easily is the greatest of this generation but the sheer CL experience prevailed.

    He's not too far from his prime at the moment either, but people focus too much on his age, unfortunately. Even today, when he plays, he changes the game. Even when he only plays 20 minutes, those 20 minutes are usually Real's best in the match. If the man says he feels physically better than ever, how about believing him and letting him play more?

Yet he is top 3 n all of those things, which when combined, makes him the most complete and probably the best midfielder in the history.

    The greatest midfielder debate may go on but ..
    Modric is surely the most iconic midfielder alongside Zidane
    And probably the most versatile midfielder there ever was
    The list goes like
    Zidane
    Iniesta
    Modric
    Xavi
    Kroos
    KDB

      ​@@shade346 even before that. 2012 euro he dominated the midfield against golden generation Spain. In tottenham ferguson called him the best midfielder in premier league, him or wenger (not sure which one) said their big mistake was not signing him cause they thought he lacks the strength. In 2006 modrić debuted on international level in a friendly against Argentina (where Messi scored his first ever international goal), croatia won 3-2 and modrić was MOTM. People take marca's mid-season poll (the one where he was voted as worst signing so far) as a proof that he wasn't that good before but forget that before that he played in tottenham who had only 2 extraordinary players (him and bale) and with them totts get to CL for the first time in history. That same season when the poll was made, modric joined at the end of transfer window missing entire summer pre-season preparations. Immediately after first mid-season preps, he got in starting XI and never left it.
      People say he wasn't good before but that's people who watch football on instagram reels and think that world consists of 2 clubs, maybe 3 (real, barca, man city)
