Love this reluctant praise.
I think the phrase you're looking for is 'bloody minded'
Love this reluctant praise.
Good little player. Nice engine and does his job. Not completely sure its him, i was a bit tipsy but did he fire a few passes at light speed to players 5 yds away? wish he/whoever wouldnt. nitpicking.
Haha one of my favourite sentiments from fans is "he has to win me over," or after he's been playing well, it's "Oh, he sure proved me wrong," as if they have a personal responsibility to the fan to do so. It's never, "Shit, you know what, I'm wrong and maybe my football jdugement isn't as good as I think it is."
Realize he is just now the age Modric was when he joined us.He was much better yesterday, hopefully he can continue to improve because that is the base level he really needs to perform at in CM.
Whoever said he passes like Modric, LOL. He isn't as good a passer as Modric I'm afraid.
He may one day show those types of passes, but he hasn't yet.
I'm pleased he is showing some drive from CM, which was missing from him so far this season.

I suspect both Winks and Sissoko are playing to strict orders to protect the defence. Winks has possibly been given a bit of licence to charge forward but only on very limited occasions. Sissoko seems to have been told to cover that righthand side and allow Tripps or whoever to bomb forward. In so doing we are missing out on his surging runs into the opposition penalty area.

Hope this reddit link works, but Winks' knee slide is making me laugh
