Skipp is raw but he appears to have everything needed. Can keep things tidy, can play progressive passes, gets stuck in, doesn't hide. Put him next to someone like Brozovic or Kalvin Phillips and i think he will progress even more than we hope he will.
It wasn’t Winks’ fault that Skipp was suspended…

Both Winks and Højbjerg seem reluctant to carry the ball. The amount of time yesterday they had 10 metres of space to run into but as there was no pass they went back to a CB. Really want to see Ndombele get a game as one of the two CMs as I think he'd be a revelation in this system and a real launchpad for our attacks by beating the press in the middle of the pitch.
Yourr not wrong but carrying the ball is a big problem throughout the team. We simply dont do it. We wanna play at pedestrian pace.
Sunday on more than one occasion Dier had the ball and it just opened up right in front of him, a massive fkin hole you could land a plane in, and he just stood there with it at his feet for about 5 secs then knocked a shit ball along the floor straight down the middle to a Leeds player. I was screaming go forward ffs. Boils my piss.

As much as I dont rate him I do think he has suffered more than most with having several managers over the past 3 years drumming it into the team 'don't give the ball away.' He plays like he is shit scared to go forward or risk a pass forward just in case it goes wrong and we lose possesion. Lot of that about as well. I do think he has been more attacking since Conte came in already.

Clean slate all round imo, trust the Manager to asess the squad in training and make the right decisions.
That's what he gets paid the big bucks for and how he builds his reputation.

Spurs fan, youth academy player and I keep remembering that home game vs Real Madrid at Wembley when he absolutely ran the show.

Played in the right way and with confidence there is a player there.

I could be wrong but mabye he went to the press for the good of the team and club as he knew Jose and Nuno weren’t good for the club. Conte is good for us and for Winks so hopefully no more wikileaks now.

He went to the press as he was a selfish little so and so. If you have issues go to your manager or the chairmen if the manager is the one you have issues with. He’s not a fan or one of our own if he looks to destabilise us for his own selfish purposes.
I really dislike two faced footballers like this who proclaim loyalty but are anything but loyal.

So, he went to the press with a story of shit going on behind the scenes at THFC (of all clubs), and not a word of it was ever printed and nobody has ever (as far as I know) come up with a single quote to back up the allegation. Seems thoroughly plausible to me............not. I hope none of you lot ever do Jury service.

Sure, while he played completely useless in about every match he played the last three years...

If he can turn it around under Conte fair play but he will have to prove a lot to get off my fuck off list (not that Winks cares about that).
