# Tottenham Hotspur: Fans blast Harry Winks’ performance vs Crystal Palace

**Flocking to Twitter, many Tottenham Hotspur fans slammed the first half performance of midfielder Harry Winks as they take on Crystal Palace this afternoon.**

Nuno Espirito Santo’s men are aiming to maintain their 100% start to the Premier League season with a fourth victory on the trot at Selhurst Park, but they’re trying to do so without a number of players.

Having had [minimal involvement](https://www.skysports.com/football/c-palace-vs-tottenham/446321) throughout the first 45 minutes and [given away possession](https://www.sofascore.com/crystal-palace-tottenham/hI) on several occasions, many believe he just hasn’t been effective alongside Oliver Skipp and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in Spurs’ three-man midfield.

Here’s what they had to say about the 25-year-old on Twitter, with one angry supporter calling him an “awful, awful footballer”.
