?? No he isn’t. Have a look how slow he is for Wolves third goal the other week. Winks is definitely not rapid.

Actually, both Jorginho and Winks percentage of passes that are forward is 24%.Wow, just wow.
You obviously don't watch Jorginho play and I'm amazed 4 people agreed with that post. Jorginho is a miles better deep lying play maker than Winks. It isn't even close. Jorginho is always looking forward with his passes, he completely dictates the play and is at the centre of everything Chelsea do.
Winks does nothing of the sort.
This has absolutely confirmed what I suspected. Winks is so vastly overrated by some on here. The comparison to Jorginho is ridiculous.
He’s not quick over longer sprints, but he does have a good change of direction, and burst over five yards which is perfect for his position.?? No he isn’t. Have a look how slow he is for Wolves third goal the other week. Winks is definitely not rapid.

Dembele has lots of great qualities but I honestly think that we transition more quickly without him (and without Dier).Completely agree. There is a reason that the wjnks/Sissoko partnership is our best despite them not being our best individuals. They have great balance. Our transitions have become so much quicker with them in the team.
Winks does a lot of simple but essential things. He links play, gets and gives it simple. He runs with it, finds space. It's easy to overlook the importance of the basics.
He does them extremely well.
You only have to look at the way Harry Winks has made an impact. He reminds me in so many ways of Michael Carrick.
He is probably that bit more mobile but he has the same impact and influence as Carrick. If you watch, he takes the ball on the half-turn. He can see everything around him — in front, behind and to the sides. Carrick was like that.
It was Pochettino who spotted that ability and he was not afraid to give Winks a chance in the first team, and he is not the only youngster to be given his chance by Pochettino.
Carrick was never like that either.His passing isn’t as good as Carrick’s
My main concern with Winks is that when we’re on the back foot he is not yet any where near being able to turn the tide in our favour.
He doesn’t stop working, and that’s useful, but he can’t grab the game by the scruff of the neck.
We really miss that kind of player ie Dembele at his best.

I think/hope that is the sort of thing maturity will bringHis passing isn’t as good as Carrick’s

Just cringed a little bit when I noticed the video on bbc website of Winks saying we are good enough to win the league. Our players need to be quiet stop saying this type of thing until they can prove it on the pitch.. let’s not forget every time someone comes out and says something similar we normally capitulate in the next game
No where near as good as Carrick winning the ball back (so far), also think he plays a lot shorter than Carrick.
Yup, better movement and skill though
He’s still young and has potential but he’s got plenty of areas to improve. He’s shown plenty of great things but needs consistency and experience.
Great to have a player of that quality from our youth team though.
What’s he worth? Certainly more than 30m, possibly 50.
Awesome
