I think Sissoko is underestimated defensively, he moves around the pitch like a madman closing players down and intercepting which is something that Dier isn't as good at, he also covers the rb superbly which in our system is vital. On top of that transitionally he's better and offers more going forward. I think Dier is well regarded by Poch as a manager on the pitch and also he's better in the air, especially from opposing team goalkicks. Personally I feel like Sissoko edges him defensively, I wish I could check this out on Squawka but they've fucked their site up.
