One of the most naturally-talented players I've seen play for the club. It was gutting to see him go but understandable - he outgrew RFC, simple as. He was never going to re-sign for the club, it'd be a sideways step in his career just like staying at Swansea would have been (no disrespect intended).
Not sure about him going to Spurs though, they seem to be on a decline and losing Modric will be a massive blow to them. He's not famous enough for the Spurs fans either so there'll be a lot of pressure on him from the get go.
...I'm gutted he didn't go to NUFC.
