I’m confused, are you saying he should be back up for Højbjerg or not? Because Højbjerg has been playing cdmHe should be the back up for PEH and not the CDM . CDM is not his role .
Sorry, but I must have missed that game where he played forward passes!Winks even at his prime and was a England player was admired for his forward passes and not so his defensive work

He is like Ali right now. In an awkward place where he is not played in his favourite position cause there are better fit. Unlike Ali he is trying to adapt as CDM but he just does not have the positional sense or strength or speed for that role.
Once we get a proper CDM, i think Winks time might be up unless we keep him as backup for PEH
Doubt itTake him out the team for a couple of weeks, SC will clamour for his return soon
Hard to disagreeBut what is he actually good at?
Like I said I genuinely believes he drags the level of the team down when he's on the pitch.
I'm not saying that this is 100% the reason but look in every game Winks has been a part of vs decent opposition this season... The only game we've won was Southampton. He started the Everton game, Antwerp, Newcastle and was on the field for all 3 goals vs West Ham. He causes chaos for us defensively and totally softens us up in the middle of the pitch.

One thing I find a bonus is that Hojbjerg is much better in an att@cki g sense than I thought h3 would be.He is also a better passer than imagined.Winks even at his prime and was a England player was admired for his forward passes and not so his defensive work

Plenty of worse players than him yesterday, he should stop shooting from outside the box though, it will never go in.

What does any of that even mean?He's a Spurs player brought up playing the Spurs way by Spurs.
We are not playing in the Spurs way at the moment.
This is the problem of Harry 'Spurs' Winks
p.s He's failing to adapt which is of course his failing.
I thought he gave the ball away unnecessarily on several occasions through sloppy play but I was pleased to see him being more positive with his passing by trying to take us forward. He will get games in this competition but I honestly thought Moussa was far better than him today and showed why he has the PL shirt next to Pierre.Thought he was really good in the first half. The whole team looked a little disjointed second half though.
Always wanted to see him do well as he is Tottenham through and through, but I'm struggling to take to him his constant giving the ball away and soft tackling don't endear me to him.I thought he gave the ball away unnecessarily on several occasions through sloppy play but I was pleased to see him being more positive with his passing by trying to take us forward.
