Never had any doubts about Winks, always knew he'd get back to his best and that's starting to happen now. Last 20 vs Barca and his 20 min cameo last night are evidence of that.
He's gonna be one of our most important players once he gets a regular place back in the first 11.
Maybe this is an unrealistic expectation but I would like to see him have more passes into the attacking midfield group rather than the defenders or the defensive midfielder. If he can achieve that statistic that would be ideal for the team.
Not a knock on the kid just how I would like to see the ball progress. We pass so freakin much to the fullbacks who just pass it backwards, drives me crazy.
I want him to quickly link defense to attack. I want him to be able to pick the ball up from the defenders and be able to advance it into Eriksen, Dele, Kane, etc quickly. We move the ball so slow it drives me crazy.Winks has never been a creative passer, so if you're looking for a guy to pick out men with raking passes or thread through balls it won't really happen. Unless you mean him just be more involved linking up in the attacking areas
How'd he do tonight?Still not nearly consistent enough for me, he shows small glimpses like today but I've still never seen him get anywhere near taking a game by the scruff of the neck and dominating it, has much to do to win me over in the same way he seems loved by many.
One game?! One game. Can you show me another game he has played well in? He's had far more crap games than good ones that's a fact. He is not good enough as it stands.
