I think the criticism of Winks is just misplaced, even though he does have to improve certain areas of his game. The problem is the blend in midfield is wrong. You can have all different types of players making up your engine room, but there needs to be a balance of skills and abilities. At the moment, our balance is wrong and it's effecting the team.What’s been so poor about Winks? Or is this just him being entirely blamed for playing sideways passes while we ignore the absolute lack of any decent movement upfront?
There are way, way bigger issues with our play than Harry Winks at the moment.
You talk about lack of movement up front, but players eventually stop making runs if the ball never comes. We've a had a line breaking forward passing problem for a while, and the hope is that Ndombele and Lo Celso will ease this, but at the moment we're still mired in it.
