Have to disagree. The most notable difference to Winks this year was just how up to speed he is physically. He hasn't looked out of place at all. As for Josh I think right now he is too aggressive, he is trying too hard and focussing on his strength rather than his football ability. Josh is know for his upper body strength. Never got to see Pritchard play any length of time in Prem so hard to make the comparison. Carroll is lightweight.I don't know if this is the right place to post it and if it's been discussed before but I feel a lot of the youth players that we bring up are lacking in physicality and that is what they tend to struggle with when making the jump to the first team. Seeing young Harry Winks come out in the last few games it reminds me of Carroll, Pritchard, Onomah as well as others. They clearly have the talent and have impressed enough to earn the step up but size and strength doesn't appear to be on their side. I know they're still young but when you look at other young players currently in the first team squad - Dier, Alli and Kane - they have been able to cope because of their physical strength.
He played 2 games that I know of for them. Strangely he must still of been under papers with us???I thought he went Chelsea?
He went to Chelsea, then Woolwich, now Palace apparently.He played 2 games that I know of for them. Strangely he must still of been under papers with us???
Never saw him kick a ball. Only heard of him as there was a "fuss/hype" when he came to us.He went to Chelsea, then Woolwich, now Palace apparently.
Looks like Woolwich and Chelsea weren't overly impressed with the lad.
I think he's another Tom Carrol myself. Nothing special.
