I dread to think what this World Cup will do to our season with everyone looking knackered here four weeks before the start of the season.
Meh. Apart from Kane and vertonghen we are covered

I guess you can find whatever you want if you look hard enough for it and you're already holding onto a significant amount of confirmation bias, but this simply isn't true.
I counted a number of times where he was excellent on transition slowing down counter-attacks and giving time for his defence to get reset, and also a number of times where actually having astute positioning stifled Belgium's possession play as De Bruyne and even Tielemans couldn't get themselves into the pockets where they're most dangerous because Dier was there. They were forced to operate from 10 yards further back.
Calling it a myth is unmitigated nonsense and fairly conclusive evidence of a preconceived bias or looking at every game without being able to put the confirmation bias to one side.
I know he's playing for England now, but I think he's been Mourinho'ed a bit. His confidence seems a bit low I think.
LOLBias lectures from Dier's #1 fan. Ok.......
More amazing is that he is looking like winning the golden boot without anyone passing the ball to him in the box.It’s been a strange old tournament for Kane.
He’s likely going to win the golden boot. But has he actually played particularly well at all?
He showed ruthless finishing against Tunisia and huge mental strength against Colombia, but other than that he’s played well within himself.
LOL
I actually allow the evidence to influence my views.
I also didn't realise that being a fan of a Spurs player was cause for derision. The more you know.
