The Tottenham Hotspur youngsters both started against Huddersfield Town and they did not disappoint.
Tottenham Hotspur youngster Harry Winks has had to wait patiently for his chances this season, but on recent evidence he could form their next outstanding midfield partnership with fellow England man Eric Dier.
Winks and Dier started for Tottenham against Huddersfield Town on Saturday and they looked brilliant from start to finish, bossing the centre of the field and helping Spurs to a 4-0 victory.
Tottenham’s goals came courtesy of another Harry Kane brace and strikes from Ben Davies and Moussa Sissoko, but the impact of the midfield pair should not be understated.
Winks has a brilliant eye for a pass and his composure on the ball is second to none in terms of recent academy products in North London.
With Dier bringing the muscle and Winks the creative nous, Tottenham look set to have an outstanding central midfield partnership for years to come.
On this evidence it is no surprise Spurs chairman Daniel Levy had no intention of cashing in on Dier, even for silly money, and you can add Wink so that list if already indispensable players.
The future looks very bright at Spurs and on Saturday their fans got another tantalising glimpse of that.
