Nah, genuinely not, I like Dier a lot, just not as a CM. I think he's hopefully got a big future as a Cb who's robust and tenacious, has a brain and can step out and play a bit, much like Alderweireld does now. I think he's also got leadership qualities.
I'd be very tempted to go for Lloris myself. Like all of our first team (lets say 12 inc. Son), I wouldn't actively push any of them out the door, but I think Lloris whilst being a very good keeper has some flaws and I don't actually think he's as good as some others do.
Obviously I'd actually chip in a few quid if we could offload Sissoko, but of the next group of players I really don't rate Davies much at all. I just don't think he's great in any aspect, even defensively.
Fair enough. In that case I'll go Dembele. Come at me.
