I miss his celebrations, even when it was usually from Harry scoring. I do wonder how much he was just scared of making a mistake with us after a while. He got a lot of abuse and not everyone can handle it.

I miss his celebrations, even when it was usually from Harry scoring. I do wonder how much he was just scared of making a mistake with us after a while. He got a lot of abuse and not everyone can handle it.
In the celebrations he's getting kissed by Fatawu and McAteer...the team really loves him 
Did his best to miss but good luck to him
Was always a fan….
I've seen from a lot of your posts that you struggle with both English comprehension and composition.
I have said it before, but you still fail to grasp the issues concerning this guy, and most of your problems seem to centre around the fact that you don't actually understand much about football.
I have never claimed he's Messi, but consistently said he's far better than challenged posters, like yourself, make him out to be. His problem has been that he's constantly been played in a role that he's not suited to, and also played, having not recovered from an injury that affected his fitness and play.
When used correctly he's a very effective footballer, and if we had a manager who wanted a player of that skillset, who set up a team that utilised it, then I'd be happy to see him back.
So for all of your attempts to take the piss at my expense, the jokes on you , for your inability to recognise what you see on a football pitch as well as understand what is being said in print.
You don't even reach mediocrity.
Funny how the boo boys trot out the "form is temporary - class is permanent" aphorismHe's better.
But conveniently forget it when they are witch hunting their latest target.
He had a great game that night
I appreciate that that must have taken you a considerable amount of time to type, Mick. (Hint: use more than one finger next time.)
Winks started out well. He worked hard and I well remember his relentless energy. Then, yes, he got injured and unfortunately became a timid shadow of his former self.
He frequently gave up during games which us what got to me. "But he's Spurs; he's one of us!" But he didn't show it a lot of the time. I remember some of those away games abroad when he hardly gave a fuck because he clearly felt he was above playing such games.
He's better as a CM, but would I have him instead of any of our other current CMs? No fucking way. There is and will always be better stock to choose from than Winks.
No top 6 manager is having Harry Winks back whatever the system they play. No England manager is recalling him over the other choices available. I hope you're capable of comprehending that.
You'd have him back because you're a man who embraces mediocrity, but fortunately you don't manage our team.
Lol great game against WBA in the championship. Let's stick him in a double pivot with Skip fire, see how City cope with them bad boys!!
In fairness, I don't think Winks looking great in the championship is a surprise to anyone. He's a good player, just not good enough for a top team. I doubt you'll find a spurs fan not happy to see him going well, and I was one who really didn't want him here anymore. Delighted to see him enjoying football
I'd love to run into him on holiday somewhere, have a beer or two together and a yarn.
You lot would all be like "Yeah, I thought you were shit, I spent a lot of precious time finding new ways to cunt you off on the internet"
If you had the cojones to be honest of course. Or you'd bottle it and blank him.
I'd be "Hahaha, that's a great story Harry, you fancy another one? Listen mate, anytime you're up Madrid way, come round for lunch or dinner, I'm a great cook."

Leicester City (so, by proxy, Harry Winks) can eat an entire bag of dicks.
Yes I'd lose my nerve in front of the might of Harry Winks. Lol! You must be very easily intimidated. I mean it's not like cunting off prime Joe Frazier then get in stuck in lift with him.

IS 100% THE CORRECT ANSWER!!!
Jesus, you really are gormless chump aren't you?
Let me help
You continually airing your ignorance on repeat doesn't make you any more right and shows the shallow nature of your understanding.
Nice try at trying to show your elitist supporting standards, but sadly it doesn't hold water when you accuse me of making a point/argument I never made, and then trying to beat me with it.
Look up straw man argument
He’s now reached his level
A half decent Champo player
If Leicester get promoted next season don’t count on Winks still being there!
As I am obviously in the presence of an outstanding intellect, allow me to ignite one of my few remaining precious brain cells to quote what you typed earlier:
"When used correctly he's a very effective footballer, and if we had a manager who wanted a player of that skillset, who set up a team that utilised it, then I'd be happy to see him back."
And that, Mick, is why I basically called you a dumb cunt to begin with. If a top six manager with aspirations to win the premier league (and more) wants that sort of player, they're not going to be recruiting Winks. Why? Because he's not good enough compared to his peers at the top end. Feel free to argue otherwise but I think his future career path will prove to be your nemesis here.
Why is he no longer with us? Why is he no longer in the England squad? You think him having fun in the championship (like Ollie did and I gather Jack Clarke is doing) makes him suitable to return under the right manager?
So yes, I comprehend exactly where you're coming from because I've seen you pipe this shit out before. When it comes to Harry Winks, topology seems to do a number on your brain and a sort of spherical eversion takes place
I don't dislike Winks as a player and I very much like him as a person but I don't think he'll ever be good enough for us. I do dislike the thought of him ever coming back to us.
Roger all that!
And someone actually said that we should have built a side around him???
LOL
I'm no giant intellectual
But god, you make me look like one
It's 'intellectual giant' you thicko.
