No Winks today, no useless ping pong between central defender and midfielder, all passes are made with a purpose and intent.

Tq Mourinho, sorry Winks, ur nowhere near Xavi and its not ur fault, try to learn how to tackle from Modric first.

Going on the stats today, the 3 cm's today played the ball forwards:
Dier 24 times
Ndombele 42 times
Sissoko 23 times

Sissoko and ndombele both played the ball back 22 times each

Winks in the last game, played it forward 44 times and back 23.

We also missed out the cm a lot today going longer from the back to Dele son or Kane.

Winks does a job in cm, but he isn't a starter for me. Good squad player to have, that's home grown and club trained

Sissoko seemed very much to be RW until subs were made.

Surely comes back into the side tonight. Good to see Jose resting/rotating him but makes us a much better side and will be required tonight imo

You have given him the curse. Very very poor tonight for the 4th or 5th game in a row now that he has played.

We are shocking in midfield and getting totally bossed. Winks on a yellow for a pointless tackle has not helped. Last 10 mins of first half Winks pressed higher and it helped us get a foothold. Sissoko is not a pivot player.

Sigh......just an ordinary player who doesn't do anything particularly great. Don't know how he has managed to get so many minutes. Doesn't offer assists, goals or the ability to control games. Positionally and defensively poor. Runs, tries hard and good at accumulating lots of short simple passes but that's your lot with him. Hope Mourinho moves him on.

Can’t believe I used to think this guy would be anything other than than a slightly improved big Tommy Carroll mk.2
