I believe offers have already come along, they were rejected. You have to play the majority of your game with Modric and Parker together when both are fit. Sandro can come in when necessary, its consistency that makes Modric and Parker look so good together. If you chop and change your team too often then there is no chemistry to work with.

The idea of a Parker / Sandro partnership is intriguing indeed , I would love to see it should the situation arise .

Well they both played together for the WBA game, I don't think they would have practiced that much in that formation though because Modric was expected to play up until the trip there.

I think it would work better in a 4-4-1-1 than a 4-4-2 though as they have a more creative player in front of them whether that's Modric,VDV or Krancjar. Against WBA we didn't really look the better team until we started playing it to the wings as soon as possible and bypassing the midfield completely.

Yes it does need some game time , but I cannot imagine it NOT working .

I would assume that the first team is prepared and ready if injuries happen. There is a place for rotation but it doesnt have to be every two or three games, Harry just has to pick his places when to use the squad and when not to.

You don't mess with the Sandro------- http://www.twitvid.com/ZIVCR

Against a good side with either Modric or VDV out, id play both Parker and Sandro. Lennon and Bale on wings with even more license to go forward and one of Mods/VDV infront playing behind the striker, preferably Ade.

Or could play them both with VDV, Modric and bale all playing freely behind a striker, although we would lose our width like this but it plausible if lennon is out especially against strong sides.

Reminds me of Paul from Tekken 3, if you know what I am talking about .

Nope he aint reggae-hiphop-rap guy and he ain't dancing so... still Paul .

But to me he looks to be in great shape. Just the body that the athletic defensive-minded midfielder needs imo .
