That £5mil is enough to buy 5 Harry WinksWhat we would want for him would be more than Norwich's whole summer budget
Summer of 2019 (pre COVID) they spent less than £5m on incomings.
So Doubt they are going to spend 4x 5x 6x that amount on 1 player
Once they are relegated and their better players are sold, winks could be a decent player for them a league below.but why would them attributes be good for fulham?
Agreed - that's his true level nowOnce they are relegated and their better players are sold, winks could be a decent player for them a league below.
25 now so can't be considered a prospect anymore that's going to dramatically improve, I thought he might be one to really kick on when he first broke into the team but sadly he's just not good enough.Agreed - that's his true level now
unless he actually changes how he plays he wont be good for any team. no team wants a player that just invites pressure onto his team by playing backwards and sideways, while offering really poor physical attributesOnce they are relegated and their better players are sold, winks could be a decent player for them a league below.
He’s finished now - can’t even make the bench
In fairness to Winks, the back four minus Reggie did this, too, and Son seemed incapable of any kind of one-touch work.people saying he was fine because he didnt give the ball away. his passes out to the fullbacks who had acres of space was so fuckign slow it broke down the potential for a decent attack! by the time the ball gets to the fullback they now have a player on them who was 15 yards away before the balls left winks foot...shit football
i dont think its deliberate. winks doesnt have the power to actually zip passes into players who are over 20 yards away..never seen him give a fullback a pass with the right weight on it..its always a slow ball that just lets the opposition reset..a nothing pass..but youre right a lot of the team do it also, but the last people that should be doing it is your midfield, they are meant to be the better technical players n the sideIn fairness to Winks, the back four minus Reggie did this, too, and Son seemed incapable of any kind of one-touch work.
I suspect - but may be wrong - that it was deliberate in an attempt to free space behind Palace, but only Kane and Bale have any decent passing ability so it failed.
Nailed it.Thought he had a good first half but faded in second half. Played some decent forward balls today though.
