Those were majestic words from Modric, worthy of a player who is a champion in every sense. Personally, I know that Modric is a player who will do a lot for Milan. The truth is, it's a shame that Madrid didn't want him more, but AC Milan is one of the best teams in Italy and with so much history, I think Modric will be one of those players who won't go unnoticed by the club.
At least AC Milan's hopes of starting this season with much more enthusiasm are even higher. They've made several signings that are actually quite good. At the very least, they're strengthening their squad, both in terms of playing ability and mentality.
Well, at the start, in their first Coppa Italia match, AC Milan managed to win against Bari 2-1. Luca Modric made his first appearance in this league, as a substitute, and only came on in the 66th minute.
No one doubts Modric's quality; he's one of the best midfielders in the world. However, his advancing age will significantly impact his performance and physical quality, so I believe his contribution is somewhat less than optimal.
There's no definitive proof for AC Milan, but I've seen the arrivals and departures of several players in their squad not make them stronger, so I'm a little pessimistic about AC Milan.
