thankfully that lot wont be seeing many minutes next year anyway. lloris, winks, dier and sanchez are faces associated to nothing but disappointment and incompetence from the last 5 or so years.
onwards and upwards finally!

This sounds too good to be true.
Who the fuck would pay money for Winks?

i said years ago hes a championship player and a lot of mushrooms on here thought that was crazy.....silly mugs
Can we write them in Arabic as then we can comment backwards !!
after their interest on our "Pirlo" aka Winks, I hope they don't like our "Nesta" aka Sanchez, our "Roberto Carlos" aka Reguilon and our "Pique" aka Dier.
don't touch them, they're ours. forever
Not counting GLC, Reggie and N’Dombele then?
yeah - so many second tier players have represented their country at every level and played in a Champions league final.
happens all the time
That’s the point - WTF was he doing playing at that level. He hardly inspired us to the final - it was in spite of him really and he’s now found his level
He really suffered after the injury, was generally well out of depth and never came close this previous form. Maybe he just needs to stay fit and churn out 60 games next season to return to that level
I get your point but it would have been sad 3-4 years ago. It’s a blessing for all at this point.
He was a decent 8 then Mourinho and Conte wanted him to play 6 as a screening Midfielder it was never his game. The fact is this is a player that dominated an opposition midfield with Kroos, Modric and Casemiro in it. Fact is sadly lost his way and the fans started to blame him for every loss when he was involved. Winks is an expert of one thing in midfield and that is recycling the ball.
Good luck Winksy.
That goal he scored (Spammers?) where he runs over to Poch was a bit special.

Got injured under Poch and imo has never looked the same player since - although with Mourhino and Conte playing counter attacking whereas Winks was really built to play possession football, that's possibly no surprise.
Sensible to decide to re-start his career at Leicester and try to establish himself as CM of choice there.
Good luck to him.
not sure he lost HIS way - just got played out of position by managers who didn't understand his skillset
Plus he was carrying injuries
We all know he's not - or ever was, an elite player - but he was an effective and productive player, played to his strengths.
He's a good enough player technically who can move the ball about, he's just unathletic, not creative in his passing range and doesn't score goals.
This doesn't make him awful, for a Leicester level team (esp. in championship) he will likely provide a nice bit of stability and keep things ticking over.

Modern football eh ?
On the one hand we have a local lad, signed up as a kid, gives 110 for the team he has always loved. Gives his all every game.
On the other, we need to spunk up £50m for the latest hotshot from Spain/Italy etc etc in order to keep pace.
As someone who was brought up in the Pratt, Skip (not that one) era, my thoughts go with Winks and wish him every success.
