Spurs' 10 Best Set-Piece Experts Of The Premier League Era

5. Luka Modric

Time At Spurs: 2008-2012. Set-Piece Specialty: Corners, Indirect Free Kicks. Superstar Croatian midfielder Luka Modric is one of the best players Spurs have ever had - and that's why Real Madrid paid more than £30 million for his services in 2012. A creative player who was incredibly comfortable on the ball, Modric also took corners and indirect free kicks at White Hart Lane. He provided 24 assists in his four seasons at the club - a good chunk of which came from his set-pieces - and he was the undisputed king of the kind of set-pieces that his team wanted a Spurs head to get on the end of. While he is well and truly outranked by guys like Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale when it comes to free kicks at Real Madrid, he still takes corner kicks for the Bernabeu club.
