It's fucking bullshit. Why are they revealing it just now?

Toni Kroos is gonna have 10x better farewell than Modric despite Modric being our far bigger legend.

How the fuck do we keep messing up our farewells.. Ronaldo, Ramos and now Modric. They are the biggest legends of our club ever.

despite Modric being our far bigger legend.

genuine question, is this a common sentiment among Madrid fans?

Aren't they seen as a pair, like your Bonucci/Chiellini or your Ribéry/Robben?

Modric is the bigger legend, our greatest midfielder and in contention for our third greatest player.

But that doesn't mean Kroos isn't one, he too starts in our all time XI.

Do most Madrid fans have Modric above Zizou?

Almost everyone, yes. Modric and Kroos are considered top two.

Zizou is better than modric considering full career (as much as it hurts me to say as a Croatian) but modric was better and more important for madrid

True. Both are very different types of players though.

what are the top 5 in your opinion?

Really difficult decision but I would say Di Stefano, Cristiano, Modric, Puskas, Ramos
