Piss off
Agree with you though. Would love a young xabi alonso or pirlo in the middle (wouldn't everyone?).

Growing up all I wanted was a world class, home grown number 9. I still can't quite believe that one came true!

No pressure or anything.
Will wait for another season or so before deciding. Looks lovely but will need to push on.

Really like him. I see similarities with a young wilshere but I think Harry is a bit more dynamic. Good running with the ball, excellent vision, good feet and a fantastic athlete. He is better than Bentaleb in my opinion. I see him making an England squad sooner rather than later.

Did you by any chance take a break from watching Spurs between 2008 and 2012?

I think most people on here have predicted Wilshere will ultimately end up on the rag front pages by fingering some cross-eyed girl on Love Island after he gets released from prison in 2022 so I sincerely hope Winks doesn't end up that way.

The amount of times our own fans don't rate Dembele is bizarre.
I love forty, i think he is going to be a cracking player for us, if he can be 75% of the player Dembele is then i will be over the moon. But FAR superior..... wow, that would probably make him the best CM in the world. As i currently can't think of any CMs in the world who are FAR superior to Dembele.

Dembele is one player that is both hugely underrated and massively overrated by our fans. There appears to be no middle ground.
Dembele has a certain skill set that works well in our team, he holds the ball up beautifully and rarely gives it away. His style of play comes with a cost though, he will very very often not release the ball quickly enough and slow us down. He doesn't seem to have the guts to try and shoot often enough either. If he did these things then maybe you could say there aren't many players better than him in the world.
Now I'm not saying he isn't an important cog in the machine, and I'm not saying he's shit. He's very important for us.
Winks looks very much like he's going to have just as much nack in holding onto the ball as Dembele, he plays tidy passes, and he also drives the ball forwards like Mousa. However, we've already seen that Winks is capable of releasing the ball much quicker than Dembele. He's also not at all afraid to shoot.
If he continues his development, then he is going to be better than Dembele, simply because he has more to offer the team.

Yes, exactly.
