Harry Redknapp admits that Tottenham play-maker Luka Modric is irreplacable amid fears he may face another lengthy spell out injured.
Redknapp is anxiously awaiting the results of a scan after Modric suffered a leg injury in a challenge with West Brom defender Gonzalo Jara during Saturday's 1-1 draw.
The Croatian, who had opened the scoring, left the ground on crutches. The blow to his leg was in the same spot as the one he broke against Birmingham last season and ruled him out for several months.
Van der Vaart. Kranjcar. Gio dos Santos. Not to mention Lennon, Bentley, Bale and Robbie Keane. No offense to Modric, but 'arry has been working long and hard on making him replaceable. And for good reason. He played a good thirty minutes, which is pretty much quota for him until Christmas.
No broken leg for Modders.
ReplyDeleteApparently he's traveling with the team to Bremen for Tuesday!
...I'm not sure having his leg broken once qualifies him as a fully fledged member of the Darren Anderton school of Personal Fitness. Players who ARE close to quota include RVP (oh, spoke too soon), Torres (who has had, what, 2 games in a row now...must be close to a ham strain) and Gerrard. On the plus side, he should be back soon...unlike Defoe, whos injury management ("I've needed an op for 3 months, but it felt ok for a bit today so screw it") baffles me.
