Apparently, Luka Modric will be unavailable for the Europa League match against Hearts tomorrow. Supposedly he's not actually injured. Tottenham have one available central midfielder, which kind of sucks. There is a certain Chelsea journalist who thinks that this whole Modric thing is a big conspiracy theory and that the transfer to Chelsea is near. No, I am not referring to my boss.

O noes! We posted on this awesome swap meet rumor earlier, and I'm not entirely opposed to it. Except for the fact that we don't need Yossi Benayoun at all and Solomon Kalou can't finish. Check that: I'm entirely opposed to it.

Aside: I had to grab that tweet from a screenshot and crop it in photoshop. The Miami football scandal has crashed blackbird pie. If you're unfamiliar with this, the University of Miami football program committed thousands of NCAA violations and will now suck until the end of time. Hi Bryan Ashlock!

What do you guys think? Is Modric close to being sold? Or is this all a bunch of garbage?
