Herrera could tackle, he made sure he stopped the player, Winks just can't do that he is not powerful enough

Tottenham star Tanguy Ndombele clarifies why he was substituted
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Tanguy Ndombele has clarified why he was substituted whilst playing against Sheffield United last weekend.

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Tanguy Ndombele has clarified that fatigue was the reason he was substituted at half-time of his side’s weekend draw with Sheffield United.
The 22-year-old was withdrawn at the interval of Spurs’ frustrating 1-1 draw against the Blades, after looking sluggish in the first 45 minutes.
“I’ve had scans that said there was nothing serious, it was more fatigue,” he said to L’Equipe.
I reckon Dier will start getting more game time as Mourinho loves having a designated DM in all his teams. I don’t think he’ll be the long term option though. I know a lot of people are wanting back in the fold but lest everyone forget, Dier is very average. He’s slow on the ball and slow in general. I think Mourinho will be looking for a world class DM in summer to complement NDombele and Lo Celso or maybe even Eriksen 
If we win every game from now untill the end of the season and end up with the CL and FA cup double, hand on heart I couldn’t care less what tactics he plays. I have forgotten what it feels like to win with spurs , and still not over the CL loss
I’ll be interested to see who plays DM for Jose but I don’t think Dier is an answer. He doesn’t have that ability to play there anymore. I would be stunned if we do not buy someone a DM in January and if we are getting Luis Campos a French League one seems obvious. I just wonder if it will be like Sangare or Soumare.
Genuine non sarcastic question, but does Mourhino have the pull to attract world class players?
Not totally sure, but he has a club with a rapidly expanding wage bill behind him, and that’s all he will need probably.
Mid long term? Yes. Now? Don’t think so
Not sure we’ll ever see Sess at LB anyway. More likely a forward that might, at some point, drop back.
I think the words 22 year old and fatigue should never be seen in the same sentence.Tottenham star Tanguy Ndombele clarifies why he was substituted

Think Deles days might be numbered under Mou he doesn't like passengers. I expect our midfield to look like this Dier, Ndombele, with Lo Celso behind Kane then Son and Moura either flank
In the training video, the person he seemed the closest to was surprisingly Dele.
Very surprising suppose it will be a big test of Dele one thing Mou won't do is have his favourites like Poch if there not performing he will bin them
Herrera was all about the dark arts, tho...Winks is not...now, Lamela, that’s another thing entirely!
Wants to get the best from him. I guess Dele and Lo Celso are competing for CAM (or Eriksen, but he’s going to be first for a Mourinho stinger, I reckon)
Agree, and that is probs an attacking variant.
People forget this is Mourinho.
We are due a whole lot oof draws and 1 goal deficits
Actually think Dele has a better chance of becoming the Herrera for Jose
Dele is hungry to get back to his best form. Jose might ask him to player a deeper role again.
We already know this, he is all about clean sheets and 3 points. He taught AVB, we have heard the song, Mourinho just sings it better.
