Video: Boyhood Spurs fan admits he doesn’t mind which position he plays

Harry Winks has insisted that he does not care what position he plays for Tottenham Hotspur.

The boyhood Spurs fan (Telegraph) has been linked away with a move from North London with Athletic claiming earlier this month that Manchester City and Manchester United mulling over a summer move.

Winks claimed that he is happy playing as a holding midfielder whereas in other matches where Mourinho adopts a 2-3-1 with two holding midfielders then he believes he has the licence to go forward more often.

The 23-year-old has started the last three matches with Tanguy Ndombele and Moussa Sissoko having been sidelined with injuries, having struggled to hold down a regular place following the arrival of Mourinho (transfermarkt).

Opinion

Many fans will admire Winks’ comments about being happy to play anywhere but the stark reality is that he is not a holding midfielder. Both Pochettino and Mourinho have attempted the Winks and Sissoko pivot which has failed to deliver.
