Carragher Neville and Redknapp all agreed last night the only real midfield player we have at the moment is Winks. Can take the ball , play one twos etc. We just have to wait for Foden Maddison and Mason Mount to join him.
The days of the hard tackling defensive midfielder have gone, certainly at the top level. Frankie de Jong is at another level to anything we have.
I don't think the busy cunt is a defunct species, but they need to able to play football too, but then the great ones - Davids, Makalele, Senna, Cambiasso, Kante etc - always could/can.
