Tottenham Hotspur face another season without silverware after being knocked out of the FA Cup by Middlesbrough.

Spurs have shown they’re capable of some superb performances and results.

But on the flip side, Tottenham have also served up some utterly underwhelming displays.

Just take a look at their last four games.

A dramatic 3-2 triumph away at Manchester City, followed by a meek 1-0 loss at Burnley.

Then a 4-0 thrashing of Leeds, followed by Tuesday’s night’s horrid 1-0 loss at the Championship high-flyers.

If Antonio Conte sticks around to oversee a summer rebuild at N17, there’s a good chance he’ll move several players on.

One player whose Tottenham future could be up in the air is Harry Winks.

The 26-year-old had the job of bossing the midfield battle against Boro, but he delivered an underwhelming display.

As per , Winks did not win a single ground duel (0/6) or aerial duel (0/2) during the game.

The man was also dribbled past more times (5) than the rest of the Tottenham players combined.

In addition, Winks lost possession 14 times and gave away some cheap fouls in dangerous areas.

Earlier this year, Conte sung Winks’ praises, saying in January that he would stay at N17 after proving ““.

The England international did well against Liverpool and Southampton in December, after Conte started him.

However, Winks has lacked consistency, and being overrun by a Championship side may well prove the last straw for Conte.
