I’m Not Modric’s Agent But…

Mr-Men-Mr-SnowThis festive spirit malarkey is being hosed down our throat more than usual this year. Everywhere you turn it looks like a bloody Christmas card- only the reality is less robins landing on fence posts and more Nissan Micras skidding around car parks and taking elderly folk and their shopping with them. It’s like Finland out there. I swear to god. Finland. Chaps are dressing like Ernie Shackleton every time they have to fetch the morning paper. Multiple socks, thermals, tennis rackets tied to feet. I’m half expecting to see a Sherpa.

…and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

True enough it’s been fairly quiet round these parts. The Chelsea game feels as if it could’ve been played when New Labour were still in charge. I can barely remember what our kit looks like. Following that there’s been little to talk about but for the occasional nuggets of excrement being squeezed out by the daily tabloids. A few of the Sunday supplements are running hard with the Andy Carroll story. In many respects, the sums appear to add up. And the more the idea lollops around in my brain and makes itself comfortable, the more I think I’d quite to see the canny hitman at Spurs. But I fear the odds are against us. Unless Mike Ashley has become addicted to the thought of being the most loathed chairmen in the football- something which has yet to be disproved thus far- then surely he’s not going to offload Newcastle’s most prized asset. Particularly if it’s to the club which he’s been accused of supporting. Whatever the price. The man would be castrated. Most likely on live television. With Ant and Dec hosting.

The Sun have caught whiff of the Luka Modric to Chelsea pong. The cause of the hubbub has been Dinamo Zagreb vice-president, Zdravko Mamic- who has barely been able to conceal the damp mess in his trousers since his encounter with the Blues boss last week. Positively giddy:

“I was with Ancelotti for lunch. I was very proud when I heard what he said about Modric,” Mamic said.

“Luka is top of his list, his first pick when it comes to new signings.

“I’m not Modric’s agent, I am just his friend, but I am very proud.

“I don’t want to say anything more because I don’t want to upset my friends at Tottenham.”

Hmmn. I don’t think I want to hear from Mr. Mamic again.

Anyway, that’s it from me. Plenty to chew over. Most of it inedible.

Warm wishes and to all  a very merry Christmas.
