The Dutch will be waking up to a collective hangover today after defeat to Germany last night severely limited their chances of progressing to the knockout stages of EURO 2012.
It was a fantastic game with little to decide between the sides. Ultimately, the Germans were more ruthless in front of goal and that’s why they won the match. But it was a reminder of just how good the Euros can be.
Despite Holland’s bad results at this tournament there has been a stiff reminder for Sir Alex Ferguson of just how much Wesley Sneijder can bring to the party. Sure, he was unable to rouse his team last night, or against Denmark, but everything that he does just smacks of class.
He’s 28 now and it seems that the Sneijder package is just a little too rich for Manchester United, but if Sir Alex Ferguson did fancy a slightly expensive splurge on his midfield then surely he need look no further than this Dutch master.
So, United fans, would you take Modric or Sneijder if you had to pick one?

do you really need to ask, modric is a good player but sneijder is in a class of his own if fergie is going to pay 25million plus sneijder is the man.

Jimmy Fung
Jun 14, 2012 at 5:02 pm
There’s no denying Snjeider is world class, but he has outrageous wage depends on top of the hefty transfer fee.
Modric is 2 years younger than Snjeider, is seasoned in Premier League Football and would also be a good compliment to new signing Shinji Kagawa. Modric plays a deep, playmaking midfielder, where as Kagawa plays in a more advanced attacking role. It would wonderful midfield dynamic.
jonja
Jun 14, 2012 at 5:15 pm
Both are good players,any one modric or snaider in OT it will be perfect for the club,but in future days,who can play many years,Modric is the best
olamide
Jun 14, 2012 at 6:03 pm
Big name is useless in EPL think about dis, no matter who Ʋ are Modric is proper 4 UTD cos he is younger, is playing EPL, he is not on treatment table every week and he is still eager to win trophies. Don’t think twice pls
Big boyy!!

I’d take Wesly any day!!! But to be honest, I wouldn’t say no to a double signing £65m for both 😉

I would not buy any of the two. There are too expensive. They cant change a game and lack dribbling skills and pace. I would buy a young player who has the pace with energy and some tricks to turn a player.

Wesley Sneijder is de man for MAN UTD, without there be know, Rooney. He is de best midfielder i have ever seen and he also a good play-maker.I think he is de man for us!!!
Aussiehopper
Jun 15, 2012 at 12:15 am
Its difficult to choose because they are both world class players with the ability to play for any team in the world, i think it all boils down to who is the best value to the club that needs him. in this situation even though i think the dutchman may very slightly out perform Modric in terms of talent, i feel he Modric would be my choice, if his fee and wages are within what is regarded as acceptable, plus he has already spent a number of years in the Epl.

Steve
Jun 15, 2012 at 2:31 am
It has to come down to what position do we need filled more, isnt Snjieder a more advanced middie while Modric can play CM as well as CAM, We recently got Kagawa and he can play CAM quite well (in addtion to left/right wing i think). So Modric may be more useful and he is already accustomed to the English style and could catch up immediately.
Would not say no to Snjieder if hes willing for the right wages, Modric wages would be half of what Snjieder expects. Also Snjieder is older.

Jun 15, 2012 at 3:01 am
Modris nt sneijder, cos we already hv injury plagued players. Lyk anderson,cleverly,fletcher. It ‘ll b silly if we buy sneijder . MODRIC/KAGAWA a̶̲̥̅n̶̲̥̅̊d̶̲̥̅̊ a defensive midfield I̶̲̥̅̊s̶̲̥̅̊ all but we need .

Modric has proven he can play well in the EPL. Sneijder is 2 years older, more fraigile and often looses his temper.
Modric is better for ManU but [nly at a reasonable price!

sneijder
Jun 15, 2012 at 9:37 am
