Haaksworth,

I was quoting Chronic who was responding to Chris H, so not aimed at you

However...
"Just don't see what Modric has done to merit being considered as the best midfielder in the world"

He has won the CL twice in the last 3 years. No other CM can say the same. Iniesta has similar feats of course but they aren't as recent, so to say Modric is a better player than Iniesta at present isn't far fetched at all.

It seems Chronic was replying to you - my bad

"He has won the CL twice in the last 3 years. No other CM can say the same."

I disagree with this. It's that team, Real Madrid, that have won the CL twice in 2 seasons, not the player. Any Real Madrid youngsters (in their first team) could say the same, but that doesn't make them better than players like Iniesta on paper does it? Just because their club has won the CL.

Ok, so when somebody questions the merits of a player i am not allowed to list their merits, which are recent and relevant?

It's not like i said the likes of Casemiro can all of a sudden lord it over Iniesta, just because he played a tiny part (i think?) in winning the CL. That would be daft
