Tottenham midfielder Luka Modric says the Premier League's creative players need more protection.
Modric was furious with a challenge from Sunderland captain Lee Cattermole during Tuesday's 1-1 draw.
Modric, who was able to carry on, was asked whether he felt that the game's creative players enjoyed sufficient protection. "It's hard to talk about it," he said. "Maybe they need to get more protection from tackles and stuff like that. We need more protection."
