Would not want the club to sell him and think he could be a great centre half but
I am not keen on him as a dm very wasteful with his passing unless it's backwards and gets caught upfield out of position to often for my liking.
While Dier has his weaknesses I would be gutted if we sold him at this stage of his development.
Fortunately I don’t think the club are remotely considering it.
Warrior I agree but in the position he plays he needs to use the ball better than he does.A guy who epitomises Poch, he’s a warrior. Granted he’s not been his usual brilliant self lately but sell him? No way and thankfully I think Poch would agree
Southgate has done well with England so far therefore I don't want to be overly critical however I feel we need to move the ball forward better. I believe Dier does that better than Henderson. Now if Dier isn't ahead of Henderson in midfield he is certainly ahead of Maguire and Stones at the back.
I truly hate Henderson and I love Dier, but Dier isn’t more forward thinking in his passing than Jordan Henderson, nor is he a better fit than Stones for a ball carrying CB at international level.

I agree that Dier is underrated. Probably one of his best assets is his versatility between CM and CB positions, which has probably harmed his progression because managers and maybe even Dier himself have never been sure which is actually the better position to be in. That's why he's such a useful option on the bench because he can be subbed on for both positions.Henderson is a sideways player his passing is not in the same league as Dier. Forgetting the two goals Stones scored as a defender he is a liability. Dier is a more composed defender imo.
It amazes me how much Dier's underrated he certainly had good schooling at Sporting Lisbon
