Only Barca's midfield is better.

Quite frankly you could have argued that was the case before they signed Martinez.

Modric + Ozil > Bayern's midfield. :coffee:

They would've have a better overall midfielder in Martinez though if you compare him to Gustavo.

Everybody needs to be quiet about this topic until I have spoken and I am not ready to speak yet until it's official.

But for now, I want you all to know that Gustavo is still the best Dm around, but that can change.

@ mole

Possible.But think Rodgers will stick to him 4-3-3 rather than going with a diamond.

Another think to factor in is gerrard is unlikely to have an injury free season and Lucas is just returning from lengthy injury.So dont think all 4 will start many games together that is if Sahin actually signs for us.

Ridiculously strong? all they have bought is depth, Martinez is the only player who genuinely improves them and quite frankly even that's debatable.

They didn't win anything last season because of Badstuber's and Boateng's overall s**tness plus lack of depth. They've solved 1 of 2 problems now.

They can even plug Martinez in at CB now. Quality signing.

I'm sorry i disagree..You still havent found the right balance in your midfield..

Interesting to see where Modric will fit in and what formation Mou plans on playing next season.

Never denied that i just find it's debatable he's any better than Gustavo at his best.... Martinez has been hyped to be better than what he actually is he's performed better at CB than in midfield IMO.

Besides Bayern didn't win the league because of those reasons....

They didn't win the league because BVB was better in every department simples.

From I've heard/seen Dante isn't an elite CB.

Uh... They had the best defense in Germany and the second best in Europe. Make that the failure of the attack in the crucial games.

More to do with Bayern being the 2nd best possession side in the World rather than Badstuber and Boateng being anything amazing.

You can't have top possession without it starting from the very back, though, and especially Badstuber's passing is exemplary.

Expect everything to pick up now.

Also don't expect replacements, they already replaced him by buying Giroud, Cazorla and Podolski.

by RealGunner Wed Aug 15, 2012 7:32 pm

We need a good backup though. Chamakh is fine but he is a bit similar to Giroud. We need a Jovetic type CF

by McLewis Wed Aug 15, 2012 7:32 pm

Spurs are the laughingstock of the European transfer market, continually second place to most of their targets. As the Dothraki would say....." This is known".

However, I think 23m is the right price for Modric. He was never worth 35m to begin with as he hasn't done enough to justify that price.
