He's started him before. I just think that the three you are suggesting is not very well balanced. If those three started, I'd expect Sissoko to start on the right in place of Moura. With Winks deepest of the midfield two and Dier disrupting in front of him.
Winks was exposed vs United for one reason... he was on his own. I’m not saying he is a DM but you cannot judge him on that game in that role. It’s scary how exposed he was due to having no partnerWhy do you say unbalanced? It has a destroyer, a passer and a box to boxer.
I know you see Dier as a disrupter but I see him as the deepest DM with a passer ahead of him. Our back four needs protection first and foremost and Winks doesn’t offer that - which was evident against United. He is better further forward imo.

It’s why him with Dier may workI agree with you, but he is not a natural DM which made life even more difficult for him.

So up for today
I hate these lot more than Arsenal
Dier does have a long pass on him which he has used to devastating effect against Chelsea in the past.It doesn't matter how I see Dier, it is where he has played him when partnered with Winks. Dier has problems when played deepest because he is not comfortable playing on the turn and frequently passes the ball straight back to whoever gave it to him.
Has Sissoko played as a box to box midfielder under Mourinho yet?

Yes. When Sissoko plays on the right (in place of Moura) he is given licence to get forward down the right side ( hence his goals) and at the same time cover back for Aurier when he attacks. I believe JM has even said that this is his best position.
I just don’t agree with you regarding Dier and Winks.
