He hasn't been the same since he added all that muscle.

He's like Wanyama out there, he struggles to move freely.

He's not what he once was or could have become.

Really rate Dier.

I think he’s just struggling being so good when surrounded by such dross. I can’t blame him for having a go at Tanganga for West Ham’s first. Dier didn’t do anything wrong.
With the right players around him and if he continues to improve like he has, I reckon he has a good chance becoming captain when Lloris moves on.

It’s fun to lie.

Edit: Don’t lie, kids.

Said for ages, Mourinho's weird loyalty to Dier will be his downfall, becoming true
Convinced it’s an ego thing on Mourinho’s part. Dier loves him and has been vocal about that which keeps him constantly on his good side. It’s going to get him sacked though since Eric is such a monumental weight weighing down the rest of the side right now. I’ll reiterate again as well. Him blaming Tanganga today disgusted me almost as much as his performance. Piss poor to try and shift the blame to a young kid who’s been one of the few defenders free from errors this season. Cares more about self-preservation than the good of the team. Can’t get rid of him quickly enough. Going to be damn near impossible though with the contract he signed not too long ago. Miserable situation.

Jose needs to admit that he was wrong about him and drop him. I'm sure he tries hard in training, he's a decent guy but not a good CB anymore. Sanchez isn't much or any better and Rodon isn't even registered for EL so it will be fun times until summer.

He was never a good CB.

What annoys me most about him is that he talks like he should be a leader but doesn't lead with his actions. He never takes charge of a situation. We defended well when we played 2 defensive midfielders who tucked back and almost made a back 6. Then you had 2 wide players dropping back. The midfield has to defend in numbers just to help the awful centre backs. It's no surprise that as soon as we try and push out we're leaking goals again. We leaked goals during this period last season too yet still picking the same culprits. I would pick Rodon, Toby or Tanganga over Dier and Sanchez. They should be 4th and 5th choice.

He's having a nervous breakdown in front of our eyes. Afraid of the ball, afraid of defending. Not physically afraid, but mentally.

Never a leader, pathetic how he throws players under the bus, and jumps into stands, get this joke out of my club

He has arguably been the worst CB in the Premier League this season. Donkey
It’s also not an exaggeration to say that every side in the league has at least one better centre half than him. He honestly would not go in and improve any team in this division.
