If you give the task of switching play quickly into the wide areas/channels Winks is actually very good at that. But that doesn't mean he's good enough all round.

Nice quick release which I think made it. Just head up and sent it in ?


Think that's what annoys people when it comes to Winks. He's capable of what we're discussing, but is seemingly too risk averse to do it more often, always opting for the safe sideways/backwards option.

Long ball into the channel for players to run on to seems to be getting quite a few attempts.

Why is CCV still here? It’s baffling, he’s spent years now turning up for pre-season and then going out on loan - we never seem to have made a decision on him, he never gets a run with us but is never sold... seems like this is just his role forever?!

Reminds me of Bentley situation. Classic cases of not being able to get rid of dead wood permenently

Yup, it’s my main issue with him, because playing like that he adds nothing to the team. Almost more frustrating to see him play a pass like that as it shows he is capable of it.
Who knows, maybe this could be a good shop window opportunity.

Winks is passing forward


Sounds like you had the same reaction as me.
