"playing against Modric is not playing it is learning..."
Well explained..
Off course
Canada got a 90 minute lesson that day. And their coach unwisely poked the bear and gave them a reason to play harder against his team.
Modric is a class above, he belongs among the GOAT midfielders.
No he is not
He is the GOAT midielder
@@user-ci4iu4ci2p how is he not 37 and still playing in the most decorated team in the history
@@user-ci4iu4ci2p yea you watch baseball then😅
@@user-ci4iu4ci2p yes he is
There is none like modric! THE GOAT!
Modric is a legend, one of the greatest midfielders of all time.
3 years in totenham not win ucl😅😂
@@stefanijakrivaja6068 When has Tottenham ever won anything?Real Madrid hasn't won a UCL title in arround a decade before Modric came,then won it literally the following season.
@@DoDo-lf2gw, realdrid perez mafia
WC 2018. 2.place
WC 2022. 3.place
With small Croatia.I think that's enough
Modric is not in the conversation of KDB, its the other way around. KDB might be in the conversation of Modric. Luka is part of the football olymp.
Modric, Iniesta and Zidane are the best midfielders in the last 30 years.
Amin
Sad for ozil 😢 the most underrated player
@@MDArbaz-vc1dxunder rated yes, but not quite in that league...
uhhhhh. i'd love to see you ague how any of them are better than this guy czcams.com/video/Btuy_PJc9To/video.html
I could probably mention 10 other players just from the nineties too. Iniesta was basically a backup player till he was in his mid twenties. Zidane wasnt a great dribbler and modric well he is a very well rounded player but lets be real he is noone near michael level for example or saying he is better than pirlo is like ahhhhh okay yea maybe, but its not like pirlo wasnt doing things modric would never do.
@@MDArbaz-vc1dx Rakitich is better and most underrated player in football
Modric is truly the goat midfielder.
Luka is one of the most complete players in the world. All the big names in football recognize its quality and the importance of its game... There is no need to compare it to the rest of the world. It's a shame that he was always overshadowed by Ronaldo in his past.
the portuguese will never overshadow modrić, one is a hype product, the other a world class footballer.
Imagine Modric in 10 years, he's only 38 and entering his prime
Modric Is the GOAT Midfielder
Respect for him acknowledging greatness
girl was fangirling about a good midfielder, and got a lesson about the best midfielder to play the game. 😂
I also wish she wouldn't claim to know what something feels like. Fair enough that that's her position and that would the type of move she would aspire to making, but don't make it about you.
Modric is a goat
I can't believe people can say this and try to find something to back it up. Modric talent as NEVER EVER EVER been questioned by people that know about the sport of football in his ENTIRE Career.
yes it was. I watched him live from very young age, and he was sent to loans until he was like 20. Then he was given a chance and he took it. I didn't watch him at 18, but when he came back to Croatia at 19, I watched like 70%% of his games from the stands (the rest on TV). He was a difference maker from day one. The best bplayer on the pitch, and you could see it, everyone could.
Still, he wasn't the one the youth coaches in Dinamo saw making the best career from that generation. They openly talk about it today. The guy that was in charge of the youth program admits that.
I agree Modric is amazing, but that argument of yours is BS. There's loads of very common narratives in football about X and Y player that don't tell the whole story or are false. This "the majority knows" is just as accurate as democracy.
@@AVAXII I recall the Spanish (specifically Real) media calling his signing the worst in team history. That didn't even have time to age badly.
@@stevencooke6451 it was one poll. took him few months till that CL game at Old Trafford. Mourinho was saying from day one, wait, give him some time and you will adore him.
Modric is a 🐐
We can compare Modric and De Bruyne after they both finish their careers , as someone from Croatia i will always go for Luka Modric but De Bruyne is damn good as well , i would say the moment Modric retire De Bruyne will become best midfield player in the world. Question is can he deliver and last for so long like Modric did
Modric started to his peak football after 30 and Kevin has hit 30 just now. These 7 years ahead will define how good Kevin is and will be eventually surpass Modric.
@@anshumansahu1087 Sir Alex Ferguson on Luka Modric:
"I wanted to sign him in 2011, Tottenham didn't want to sell. I voted Modrić the best PL player of the year in 2011 & everybody agreed."
Its your problem you didnt watch him before he came to Real Madrid
@@anshumansahu1087 sounds like u started watching him in 2018 he was already world class in 2008 making euro team of the tournament
@@anshumansahu1087 except most midfielders in the world die off way before 30. If you expect de bruyne to last as much as modric u are delusional
@@anshumansahu1087 Indian imbecil what are u talking?
Zidane Modric Matthaüs best balanced midfielders of all time
Now that would be a trio
Modric the best
Don't even think to compare kdb with ballon dor 5 times champions league winner, modric is among the best md player in history
Must be FIFA players
who the hell is kdb??? just above average player. LM is top 5 of all time❤
Modrić is the GOAT
When De Bruyne will play 10 years in club like Real Madrid, if he wins 5 time UCL, FIFA WORLD CUP silver and bronze medal and the last winning Baloon d'Or , maybe them he can be on Modric's level. modric GOAT
Bruh de bruyne is way clear
Eustáquio és grande!
He might be surprised in 2026. If you think Modrić is good now, just wait until 2026 when he'll show you what 'next level' truly means!
LOL love it
Growing up in Toronto with second generation Portuguese, Estaquio has that second generation Portuguese accent when speaking English 😂
Believe me, Modric is playing for Croatia in 2026!!! He's 38, now and he will be 40 in 2026
My kinda woman for sure. Into football and a smile that lights up a room 😍😍
It was kinda funny watching all these guys play for Canada and the USA at the world cup who I watch every week in Europe and had no idea they were from N. America.
he knows ball... modric is GOAT
These two are not players you can compare directly because they are different. If you take goalscoring and shooting, KDB is ahead by far. If you take key passes , chance creation and assists, debruyne blows modric out of the water. Just check the numbers before arguing. However modrics main duty is not in the final third. Its his intelligence, passing and dribbling ability in midfield that makes him stand out, he can take out 3 players with a clever dummy or a well placed pass. If I had to pick one for my team I would go for modric but you cant say one is better than the other without mentioning a specific area.
Modric is more of a big game player; he always delivers when his team needs him. Can't say the same about De Bruyne.
@@rippedkodiak spot on
Just look at belgium and how pathetic they are LMFAO
Stacked team, can't deliver squat
@@rippedkodiak you clearly never watch de bruyne , he is a big game player
Tebarekabdulkadir bulshit..Gundogan scores more goals than KDB so thats mean he is better goalscorer than Kdb?..every midfielder will scores more in Guardiola Man City(one attacker + 5 midfielders) than in Real Madrid(3 attackers + 3 midfielders)..put KDB in Real(bale,ronaldo,benzema) or vinicius,benzema,Rodrigo upfromt and he wont score more than 4,5 goals per season..on the other side put modric in goardiola barca guardiola bayern guardiola Man city and he will score 10 goals per season..Just one Real midfielder score 8+ goals season in 12 years and that is James Rodriguez..and when James scores Real winn 0 trophies..
@@user-ci4iu4ci2p pinpoint me to those huge games he shined
OH WAIT he was always absent when it mattered most, in champions league final stages
You have to love when you tube warriors think they have more knowledge than professionals. When you see what professional managers like Zidane and ancherlotti and players say about LM, end of discussions.
Jesus, Caroline. Completely my type.
If you dont know this is Stephen estaquio
One peforms the same way and at same level in both club and country whereas one shows up at Club level
Maybe the best
2068 Modric sighn a new contract for Real Madrid
I can see most of the ppl in chat are rma fans nvm He didn't have to run behind de bruyne because de bruyne had to make just one pass to break the entire opp team while Modric was trying to dribble his way through 🤷♂️
Hahaha funny
finally, someone who knows. Tell that Sunday League Player what's up :D
Wish he played for Portugal
We have enough talent. It's good for him to play for Canada, since he'll have more chances and raises the level of a less-strong national team. Plus he might feel more canadian than portuguese which is an individual thing.
@@jeanjacqueslundi3502 he played for portugal youth division but chose Canada when he didn't get a call up for Portugal senior side which I get.
Not good enough for portugal
@@DiegoPeruzza he's good enough just wouldn't get many minutes
Stephen who?
The girl boosting about herself haha 😂
CROAATIAN
KDB is just better then Modric 🤷♂️
Kdb better than Modric
toni kroos is far better than kdb
Only Zidane is above Modric 🤗
Modric is bether
Zidane was terrible in defense
Kevin De Bruyne is Goat 🐐
De bruyne is the goat
He's not.
Modric no level Kdb you know pass assiset and goal ⚽️👈 modric over 15 year 33 goal 🤣😂🤣🫶
De Bruyne clear of Modric
We see hahahahahah
Wtf HAHAHAHAH ball knowledge 0
Go easy on him guys
Man city kids have no knowledge of football🤣
He seems to disagree
There is no comparison between De Bruyne and Modric...none. Modric is in a class all his own and deservedly is debated about as being one of the greatest midfielders of all time. Make no mistake, De Bruyne is world class without a question but he is not considered to be a once in generation type player whereas Modric is. Modric is doing things at his age that should not be possible but the fact that he plays both sides of the ball and 20 year olds are having a difficult time chasing him down is a testament that a talent like his is a once in a generation type player. I will make sure to see him if he is still playing for Croatia national team for the WC here in the USA and everyone else should see him play. Enjoy him while we have him as a player because he will be a coach too.
De Bruyne is Better then Modric! Period ! Modric is overrated! Just like Karim Benzema they are Good but not on Zidane level Zidane De Bruyne = same level! Karim Benzema Didier Drogba Leonell Messi Alessandro del piero = same level ! Ronaldo and Haaland and Brazil Ronaldo = same level! MONSTER Level! There you have it your fkn welcome! Enjoy facts not opinions! My opinion is totally different or well something added wich is my PERSONAL opinion i five you facts!
Dude really said kdb is better then modric💀💀
Prime kdb can barely keep up with a 37 year old modric
If we put both in their primes modric would have ripped kdb apart there is a reason modric won a ballon dor and if you watch prime modric you will realise what a true middlefielder really is
u are incest imbecil who is boosted with 10 covid vax
ti si budala
Zidane is good because he showed up both in Club level as well as NT so has Modric in both club and National team( a less superior NT)
Apart from club football where does De Bruyne show this level of play?
@@kwadwoasamoah103 When things aren't going City's way where has KdB been? Modric on the other hand has stepped up countless times and turned the game around, something this guy doesn't seem to get or chooses to ignore
Kbd it's ok but compare modric and Kbd is shame modric, zidane iniesta, xavi the Best mitfilders in history of the fudball
KDB is world class, but Modric is on another level!
