This club has basically been burnt to the ground and we need to put building foundations in place for the rebuild. Winks fits that. probably the same people that said Akanji wasn't good enough for us 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finnegan Posted 27 June 2023 Share Posted 27 June 2023 Get fvcked. Absolutely not. Worst possible first signing, the most bland, milquetoast, nothing footballer imaginable. Not remarkable enough to be a match winner even in the Championship and will be redundant the moment we get promoted (if we do, which looks increasingly less likely of this is what we think our recruitment strategy should be.) This is am Everton move, buying players on the way down. All of our success came from buying players on their way up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lcfc-1992 Posted 27 June 2023 Share Posted 27 June 2023 (edited) I think he’ll be similar to Mendy. Doesn’t do anything that stands out but a steady player that just keeps the ball moving. Nothing to really get excited about Edited 27 June 2023 by Lcfc-1992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jv1 Posted 27 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 27 June 2023 Obviously very much against the curve here but in the championship he will be very decent - moves the ball quickly and wants to play - if we were still in prem no chance but for championship I actually think he will be decent enough 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post st albans fox Posted 27 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 27 June 2023 I’m quite content with buying him we don’t have a player to set the tempo of a game - to receive and move the ball on. Youri did that for us (when he was fit )and pappy was also a reasonable option but lacked the confidence to take the ball forward effectively so it was generally side to side. KDH should be able to do it but lacks the technical attributes to manage possession under pressure. Bouba - well we know he can do it but he loses concentration too much and he would prefer to go back to France if someone comes in for him. I just hope we don’t get £50m for madders and overpay 10m on winks …….. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowlattsFox Posted 27 June 2023 Share Posted 27 June 2023 I think he will be a ok player in the Championship, not ground-breaking or anything and hopefully there are more exciting signings, but my issue is the wage he may be on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenTheFox Posted 27 June 2023 Share Posted 27 June 2023 1 minute ago, moore_94 said: I'm alright with this. He is nothing special but sometimes you need players who can just do a job. We have lost Tielemans and Mendy and may see Praet, Soumare and Ndidi go. We are probably going to need to sign at least 3 or 4 central midfielders. He strikes me as the type of player who doesn't set the world alight but you are highly unlikely to get anything less than a 6 or 7/10 performance from him at this level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
when_you're_smiling Posted 27 June 2023 Share Posted 27 June 2023 The fact Winks has got three times as many caps as Maddison tells you everything you need to know about it being who you play for being more important than how you play to get in the England side. Still, hopefully the Championship is more his level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
