I thought he was Bjorn son of Ragnar, are you telling me it’s not him?
Not. Bjorn looks more like Rooney ?

Dier actually Looks more like Keanu Phil Mitchell's son in law from Eastenders. he messed up quite bad too, knocked up Phil's daughter then knocked up Sharon.
I think Dier is the perfect foil next to a top class CB. Dier's weakness is pace and positioning for arial balls at the moment, but look how much he's come on in the last few months even. When he's in position he's fantastic in the air, he's strong as an ox and is great on the ball with a Toby-esque range of passing. Yes the consistency is not 100% there yet, but he's already the best we have at his position and will only get better with more time playing.
If you could get someone like Gimenez or Skriniar (very unlikely now I know) next to him, that would be an incredible low defensive block. If you could get someone more athletic like Upemecano (not happening I know but in his mould) you could afford to push up the pitch a bit and have that player cover behind Dier.
I rate him massively, and given more time and the right partner he could be a rock for many years.
I regret this take so much. Turns out his frailties were being covered up by the low block. As soon as we aren't playing 7 back with our wingers shielding the full backs, he's absolutely useless. Maybe he needs more time in his position? I don't know what the answer is, but I'm pretty sure he isn't our future solution at CB.
Jose doesnt give anybody contracts. Levy does it to protect the value of the asset, rightly or wrongly.You can't blame Dier and completely excuse Mourinho when Mourinho gave this guy a new deal and has made him one of his favourites
He was fine in the low block, is no use when he has to move forward or backwards with the run of play.are we still debating this clown. he will never ever be good enough for a supposed top 6 club its just a fact. he's at best a squad player to keep around the club for morale as i rather winks fucks off first and we need homegrown players
Of course, but it is absolutely evident that Dier is one of Mourinho's favourites. Even Mourinho has said so. So my point still stands.Jose doesnt give anybody contracts. Levy does it to protect the value of the asset, rightly or wrongly.
Him trying to shift the blame onto Tanganga should be the final straw. Trying to throw a kid under the bus to cover his own failings. Not just a terrible player but a coward who wants no responsibility for his short-comings. The fact that he’s neither young nor homegrown as well means he’s just total deadweight at this stage and he’s bringing others down with him. He’s making his teammates nervous rather than giving them confidence. Convinced he’s only retained his place because he’s a Mourinho fanboy. Don’t see how we improve whilst he’s still a fixture in our defence. Absolute poison to our performances at the moment.I really don't like berating players but Eric is simply not good enough, how many times do we have to watch him shirk responsibility and lose flight of the ball resulting in a goal.... And the cheek of him to try and blame Tanganga for it... DISGUSTEN! Time for him to move to a more suitable league, Slovenian 5th division is his level.
Well your point doesn't stand because he didn't give him a contract.Of course, but it is absolutely evident that Dier is one of Mourinho's favourites. Even Mourinho has said so. So my point still stands.

I would rather have Lagertha beside me in battle than EricaI thought he was Bjorn son of Ragnar, are you telling me it’s not him?
