TBF they didn't press him at all, different story in Prem. This is where he needs to develop IMO, lovely to watch when given the time.Would be good to see a fresh face in the starting XI. His performance in Madrid was ridiculous, bossed Modric.

I agree he needs to develop that, but that's where the squad game comes in handy - not every team in the Premier League aggressively presses us. A lot of teams sit back and we struggle to break through the lines. This is where having Winks is a fantastic option.
Agreed but I bet he still has faint hopes of going to the world cup. Needs to be fully fit for pre season in USA where he can stake a claim to start again when season starts.Don't think I'd want to see Winks again until pre-season/next season.
He was absolutely shocking in his last few appearances for us. Now it's likely because of his injury but it was embarrassing to watch at times. As if he won some sort of competition to be there.
I want him fully fit, stronger, confident and the best he can be next time he plays for us. The guy who played Liverpool off the park at Wembley. The guy who was instrumental in our results home and away against Real Madrid and the guy who was on the cusp of a World Cup place.
He could be the best England midfielder of his generation.

He's got absolutely no hope.
Poch just confirmed in his press conference today that Winks will almost certainly not get a game this season (posted the video of PC in Poch thread)
think we have learned our lesson about bringing a player back too early. Save him for next year, as we will probably need a replacement for the Moose.
