It saddens me how many of our supporters can’t enjoy his continuous progression and development of this young player for no reason other than an inability to understand that at 22 he’s not the finished article.
Fabinho is 25, Winks is 22 and their not even alike in playing style anyway.
Bizarre comparison.
You literally ignored the argument against your point.I’m talking about a CM who is able to knit play together, keep possession ticking over and impact the game from a defensive and attacking stand point.
Don’t we all agree that CM is by far our weakest area? And Winks is a CM right? I’m genuinely surprised if people don’t think we need better in that position. I’m not writing the kid off, just think we need better in there.
I thought last night Winks didn’t impact the game much at all positively. Got hounded out of possession a few times. He did some things well, got stuck in, as I say, Scott Parker.
Fabinho took 6 months to play 1 game against a midfield which was shit. Winks bossed Modric and Kroos at Wembley and the Bernabeu. Have some perspective.

He cost like £43 million.I just wish he'd impose himself more on games. He seems to play so within himself.
I still don't see him as good enough to be first choice CM for us, it has to be said. We need better in there. I look at how Fabinho is starting to play at Liverpool, absolute leagues above Winks. What he showed against United ability wise was a really high level and he only cost 30 million.
I still just see a less dynamic / aggressive Scott Parker.

He's 22. We don't know yet how good a player he'll develop into. I don't think I've seen a single person say they don't want to improve our options in CM. That's very different from saying Winks isn't good enough.
It was football writers player of the year, so voted by Journos, not the PFA which is voted by the players. Bale won it that year I think!Scott Parker Premier League Player of the Year Scott Parker ? Or are we talking another Scott Parker ?
How long will he dine out on that?
