Dier wears 15 because Vidic was his favourite player growing up. He could have changed to 6 years ago (before Dav joined) and never did. He’ll be 15 for his whole career here, same with Dele and 20.Dier transfer request incoming. Certainly no Skriniar on his way.

Lmao.As far as Jose’s desire to be a bunch of ****s on the pitch goes, I imagine Højbjerg can fit into that role perfectly. The fact he won major trophies at such a young age with Bayern must surely give him an edge we lack in our squad.
For me we haven’t had a proper leader in the centre of our midfield since Scott Parker. We’ve had some quality players there in Wanyama and Dembele, but they don’t fit that “potential captain” mould as Parker always did and as Højbjerg already seems to.
If he comes good, PEH with GLC and Ndombele in front of him could be an epic midfield trio.
Did any one post this yet? I think this is a very good explanation of why we need him
I don't like it when the show stills of the game instead of pausing video, as you can't see the context of the situation. Also, Dier's stats in the comparison are a for both DM and CB, so will be skewed.

I agree with this but in the next decade or so this was modified as formations transitioned towards 442 and 433. So 2 remained rb, and 3 left (say Kinnear, Knowles). 5 and 6 were the cbs or cb and sweeper (say England and Beal). 4 and 10 were the midfielders (Mullery and Venables); 7 and 11 were rw and lw respectively; with 8 generally inside forward (Greaves) and 9 the centre forward. So, for people of my generation, 5 has very definitely been the cb. Like others, I am really surprised that it wasn’t offered and taken by Dier. It’ll always look odd to me.The original standard formation had:
11-10-9-8-7
---6--5--4---
----3---2----
------1------
1 - Goalkeeper
2 & 3 - Full backs
4, 5 & 6 - Half backs
7 & 11 - Wingers
8 & 10 - Inside forwards
9 - Centre forward
When translated into modern formations, you can make the argument for any two of the half back numbers to be the CB numbers, so 5 works for the DM. On the other hand, it's much more usual to have 4 or 6 as the DM, allowing the CB's to have consecutive numbers. But then there's a nice symmetry to the DM having 5. Argh!
We are going to regret this.
In a year or two he is going to be a £20m man. At least
Vincent Janssen signs for Spurs!
Looking ahead to this season I feel this guy's going to give us some great moments. Late goals in tight games when he's brought on to play up with Harry and we're throwing the kitchen sink at the opposition. Just feel it in my boner. FYP (y)www.spurscommunity.co.uk
