Janssen isn't home grownGrowing up all I wanted was a world class, home grown number 9. I still can't quite believe that one came true!

Will he be available for U21 tournament?
He's out of the euros, the following are at their training camp:
Angus Gunn (Manchester City), Jonathan Mitchell (Derby County), Jordan Pickford (Sunderland), Joe Wildsmith (Sheffield Wednesday)
Calum Chambers (Arsenal), Ben Chilwell (Leicester City), Kortney Hause (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Rob Holding (Arsenal), Mason Holgate (Everton), Dominic Iorfa (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Alfie Mawson (Swansea City), Sam McQueen (Southampton), Jack Stephens (Southampton), Matt Targett (Southampton)
Lewis Baker (Chelsea), Nathaniel Chalobah (Chelsea), Jack Grealish (Aston Villa),
Will Hughes (Derby County), Ruben Loftus-Cheek (Chelsea), John Swift (Reading), James Ward-Prowse (Southampton)
Tammy Abraham (Bristol City), Isaiah Brown (Chelsea), Demarai Gray (Leicester City), Jacob Murphy (Norwich City), Nathan Redmond (Southampton), Patrick Roberts (Manchester City), Cauley Woodrow (Fulham)
Mawson has been great for Swansea, one to watch I reckon.
And whatever happened to Will Hughes, he was linked to all the big clubs a few years ago, but seems to have gone off the wonderkid radar.
The physical strength like Modric, Kroos, Pirlo and Veratti? It's only because we're used to having Dembele there than it seems a necessary attribute, but Winks has shown he can shield the ball and hold players off without pure brute force, but also has an incredible passing range and vision, could be a much more complete midfielder than Dembele if he continues to develop.Still think winks will end up further forward like a silva or coutinho .just not sure he has the physical capability for CM role in modern game .A d poch has showed he likes 2 really physically strong CM
disagree --- Demebele, Victor, Winks and Dier sometimes + Onomah for cup games is fine particularly because there is emergency coverI'm torn with Winks. Can see a very good player developing, but still feel we could do with another central midfielder unless Eriksen drops deeper next season?
Harry Winks is far from fragile!Modric yes .pretty sure Kroos and pirlo are bigger than winks .No listen of course a slighter player can play there .xavi didn't do to bad .Maybe it's because he looks so boyish ,I feel he is still a bit to fragile for that role .But there's no doubting his ability .
I'm in exactly the same boat. I really rate Winks but still feel that we need another central midfielder unless Poch sees one of the AMs as capable of playing in CM for long stretches if we were to have injury issues (or unless Poch thinks Onomah is ready). As the squad currently stands we're in real trouble if one of Winks or Dembele picks up a long-term injury.I'm torn with Winks. Can see a very good player developing, but still feel we could do with another central midfielder unless Eriksen drops deeper next season?
