The way you described him, it is like describing Zinedine Zidane in his peak.

No offence mate, the way you told about him like words coming from his agent.

Modric is still unproven, he has not yet bringing his team to the meaningful trophies. The caliber of Pirlo is Xavi. Modric is still below Pirlo, at least one level. Too bad he got injurued in the games vs Rome in December when Milan played already well and creative with him playing as left CM and his injury took so long that Milan already found the new tactic. Otherwise his future could be different.

I agree with you, Modric COULD be potentially than Pirlo but until now Pirlo is better than him.

the reason he hasnt won much yet is because he doesn't have the same quality of players around him like pirlo has had in the past. Tottenham have a strong deep midfield but an average attack and a below average defence, so its not surprising that he hasn't been able to do much with them. If he were to end up in a team like Manu, he woud make them even stronger. Croatia is also not in the same league as the italian NT, so, he probably won't win much with them either. The English premier league is more competitive than Serie A, so as long as he stays in Tottenham, I don't see him accomplishing much unless they boost their attack and defence. He hasn't yet hit the highs Pirlo has in the past, but if you have seen him play, you will realise that he has the potential to be even better. But, Pirlo is no longer half the player he was.
