CM: Luka Modric
Another Spurs great who has since been recruited by Spanish giants Real Madrid, Luka Modric certainly gets a place in the centre of the park in Spurs’ greatest Premier League XI.

It wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows for Modric at White Hart Lane, however, and the Croatian international had a tough time finding his feet when he first arrived in North London.

Nevertheless, with time, Modric proved to the world the magical things he could do with a football and has been tearing up the best midfield’s in Europe ever since.
