Eric Dier

[SlotBadger]

Think he looks to be in good shape, and I approve of him slowly transforming into Zangief:

He used to have a very handy turn of pace. I used to be more bothered about the lapses in concentration and the way he would be bullied by certain centre forwards.

Like Akinfenwa

 

[Cochise]

I was thinking more Deeney and Ighalo. That one sticks in my mind.

So is Eric available to play tonight? Or does he still have a hearing looming in relation to him climbing into the stands "to protect his brother"? Feels weird that we are months down the line and we don't know if this matter is now swept under the carpet. At least with Dele the verdict has been made and we know he is available after tonight's game.

 

[Yiddo100]

Thought he had a good game apart from getting turned for the pen (questionable decision imo)

 

[ShaunL84]

Thought he played well.

 

[dontcallme]

Had a good game. Let Pogba get past him for the pen too easily but needed to discipline himself to not tackle or pull him and risk a pen.

 

[kannanmothalali]

Thought he played well.

Except for the whole penalty thing.

 

[BringBack_leGin]

Silly on the pen, up until that point was arguably man of the match.

 

[SpursTillIDie1882]

As always regardless of performance, he will always be a huge Liability. Maybe harsh but true , and the truth hurts at times

 

[phillipjpalmer]

Got done and made a mistake, played well I thought.
After injury, loss of form and lockdown break, we need to cut him some slack.

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

Quite impressed today. Diers problem has always been lapses in concentration. Arguably there was one today, but if he can master those lapses, he can become a high quality centre back.

Thought it was a very tired challenge and moment. It looked like him a Sanchez could form a partnership

 

[ajspurs]

Thought he was a little unlucky but quite encouraging in all honesty, had a really good game minus the penalty.

Yep. Thing was we had a defender blocking the front post. Once Pogba has gone past him just let him go.

Other than that it was a good performance.

 

[DEFchenkOE]

Played very well overall.

 

[ralvy]

He played very well overall, but I don't actually play football (besides the recreational match every three months or so) and even I knew what Pogba was about to do. I suppose some situations are easier to judge externally.

 

[isaac94]

Good game, but always a mistake in him

He ws left isolated against a fresh player. Its a definite penalty but one where I have sympathy for Dier.
