I've been reading the comments on this Amy Lawrence piece
http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/aug/27/luka-modric-tottenham-real-madrid
and most of them seem to veer between, we was mugged, and got screwed, cause we didn't get the 40mill that Chelsea offered last season (though I'm not sure if this is the actual amount of money on the table), or Levy done good, because he sold Modric overseas and got more than we paid for him.
I didn't want to lose him, but like teams before us, we'll hopefully reinvest in a couple of new players and the team will move onwards. I do know if Levy and AVB stick to their guns, the new players will be young, quick and hungry with some resell value in their future...
