Bit saddened at the last few pages as I'm a big fan of Winks and it now looks like I'm in a fan club of one!
Winks' strength is to keep the ball moving, which stops the opposition building up a head of steam. Yesterday's game had Sissoko scarpering off at a run and Eriksen hiding so he really had very little to work with. This combined with the obvious instruction to go long and vertical as quickly as possible isn't really helping out my boy.
I don't think anyone thinks Winks is a massive physical specimen who can dominate a midfield by himself but he does often appear to be the only one in there.
I still love him and think if he could play with Ndombele or a fit and able Dier we'd see the best of him but for whatever reason that doesn't appear to be on the cards at the moment.
