A bit like Ben Davies and I'm sure that you don't quite view him being out of his depth?Have you forgotten the game at Anfield last year? He looked way out of his depth.

He’s not slow, and Pochettino thinks he’s a CB.
Eric Dier loves me.
Such a good player and seems to bring good spirit to the squad.
I remain interested to see how the team lines up when Sanchez, Aldereweireld, Vertonghen and Wanyama are all fit as certainly gonna give Poch a headache.

He was brilliant against Madrid and followed it up by putting in a great performance against Palace too.
Good problem to have but sadly not sure Victor will be backSuch a good player and seems to bring good spirit to the squad.

Great comparison and totally agree. It's great to see Dier mature as it seems like he has boughten into the vision Poch has of him becoming a top class Centerdefender.Thought he was excellent against Utd as well.
He's going to be a proper monster in a couple of years, think he can be a world class CB and an excellent DM, think of an inverted Javi Martinez and that's what you'll have with Dier.

While I know you disagree with me, I would be put him as great but not excellent as I think he was more culpable than the others for Manu's goalThought he was excellent against Utd as well.

He has Poch's trust to be able to play to instructions and adapt quickly within and between his two main roles. As a CM he's risk averse but the more I see of him, the more I feel it's because he's told to play that way, and that we'll see more from his locker as he matures. With that in mind, I'm happy he's gaining such a lot of match experience. If we had two better specialist players, one at CB and one at CM, then they'd have to alternate, to their own detriment as well as Dier's. He can become an absolutely hugely and historically important player for us. It's happening before our eyes.Is he our best CB? No in my opinion. Is he our best defensive midfielder? No and again my opinion. What he have is a very talented and versatile player who enhances us and is very much detriment to our cause. So yes we do need him, selling him now would be paramount to suicide to the club's current position as a major player in the EPL
I love Dier and don’t want him going anywhere but he shouldn’t be starting any of the big matches with all those players healthy. He’s not currently better than any of them in their respective positions. That’s not to say a few years down the road he won’t be starting for us in those matches. I personally think he’ll eventually replace Alderweild for us in a few more seasons. He can still rotate in for any of the above players in lower profile matches with little drop off and that’s his value to us right now.Such a good player and seems to bring good spirit to the squad.
