No one can ever make the Carroll and Mason comparisons again to Winksy, the lad is something special. He actually bossed it against one of the best midfields in the world, we have some player on our hands.
Plays like a mix of Modric and Kovacic, fantastic young player and he always surprises me with how fast he actually is. Loved his little slalom run, shame he lost the ball in the end.

Which is why it was infuriating whenever Poch wasted minutes on Carroll a couple of seasons ago with WInks showing he was already the better player with far higher potential.
I don’t think we should destroy Mason and Carroll just because Winks is showing a high level. Carroll is doing very well for Swansea and had some good games for us, Mason also played in a top 5 midfield and got England recognition. No need to trash these guys just because Winks appears to be better.
When you think of midfielders to come out of English academies in the last 5 years who are technically gifted they are a decent pair, certainly able to play at premier league level.
Going to the World Cup
Winks’ burst of acceleration is very impressive.Mentally, he is quick. Physically, he isn't quick enough in my opinion. When defending, he gets beaten quite a few times (Real Madrid, West Ham) but that is absolutely no dig at Harry Winks at all. I love him and think he is going to be class, shown a lot of potential recently. I agree with your comparison to Modric. Reckon Harry will go the World Cup with England next summer and it will be deserved!! COYS
