He's a big lad who has suffered injuries and ill health, my guess is he needs a good rest and a proper pre season to get back to his best. He lacks mobility but has a great attitude, I'd love to see him shielding the back 4 with the FBs pushing on.
People's ire should be directed at Eric, fuck'd if I know what he thought he was doing for 45 minutes on the pitch, but it looked like he didn't give two fucks.
Looked uninterested, head wasn't in the game for me and was lucky to be one the pitch.I wouldn’t say he didn’t care, he looked badly out of shape and lacking fitness imo.
That’s not really his fault as I suspect he has been asked to play when he is not 100% right due to our injuries
After the yellow he did nothing to avert a red...hence the substitution.
He’s a senior player and should have shown some restraint after the early booking, yet he continued to make rash tackles. Poch had no choice but to replace him to save him from a second yellow.
With Foyth ...who acted like a nutter.....clever move. You couldn't write it could you mate ??
What I meant is that Dier should have shown restraint so that we didn’t have to make that sub.

Think you’re spot on. He looks a lot heavier and slower than his already slow usual self but I agree and think this is because he’s not match fit and being asked to play due to our injuries etc. That having said I’ve not ever rated him as a DM and today again proved that.I wouldn’t say he didn’t care, he looked badly out of shape and lacking fitness imo.

Every time I see him, he looks slower and less mobile, mad to think his only 25
