IF and I mean IF he stays next season he has to either go back into midfield for game time.
It’s called passing the buck.... he is a terrible CB at PL level. I honestly think that he would struggle in the ChampionshipThe bizarre thing about these photos is that in frame 2 Dier is clearly telling PEH to take Bamford. Its the wrong thig to do as PEH should have bene watching the no 43, however setting that aside, telling PEH to take Bamford must have logically meant that Dier would attack the ball. However, Dier then just lets the ball come across. I'm not sure how I explain what he is thinking - just wasnt impacting play at all
I'd be very happy for Jose to take him to Roma, and separately us to offload Sanchez. Maybe we can get £50m for the pair? Then sign Anderson from Lyon and AN Other CB
He is probably even worse in CM than he is at CB. Poor control, zero mobility, low passing ability, little positional sense, very easily pressed.Been saying the same thing for ages, CM is his best position and if he does not like playing there then he has to leave.
The only reason he should be here next year is to be used as a squad player that can cover CB, DM and RB in emergencies
He's not fit to shine Dave Mackay's boots with his tongue.Is there anyone left on the forum who still rates him beyond Scara? Someone posted a few weeks ago that he’s somehow garnered a reputation as a modern day Dave Mackay because he scythed Hazard during the battle of the bridge but it’s completely unearned as his level is nowhere near and I completely agreed at the time.
How bad can Rondon or Tanga be when they cant get in? And i dont think they are. But that must not make them feel great. At least i would rather them play at least they would learn and get better. Dier has shown he is not able to grasp the basics....EVER. Im no longer going to do my own head in by watching. And i hope to GHod he isnt in this squad come Aug. In fact if most of this team is still here. I shant bother with next season at all
I continue to feel weirdly disconnected and will do until quite a few of the current squad are moved on.
I watch our current games with a mixture of bemusement and mild amusement.
Did he not just sign a new contract last year.
Sadly do not see him moving on, maybe a loan with us paying half his wages.
Yeah and going by how he was talking recently with those quotes about his ashes being spread at WHL i don't think he'll be thinking about moving any time soon

I’d hazard a guess that Mason looks at the experience of Toby and dier and feels that is less of a risk than green players. Whom knows. But I agree about not watching any more. I kind of stopped after the Saudi Sportswashing Machine game. Life’s too short and the joy of watching a bunch of rich boys flail around has gone.How bad can Rondon or Tanga be when they cant get in?

I'm pretty much done with 'modern football' and knowing the same teams year in year out (nearly always) will win the trophies. As a kid and up to my 20's and 30's I perhaps naively believed in the sport and that almost any side could compete. I've grown up watching FA cup/League cup finals where most years there was a different name on the trophy and a lot of sides realistically competed for the title. Now we have nothing more than 'fantasy football' akin to the Championship Manager game where the teams with real money are bankrolled to success. Footballers being given 300k A WEEK! Combined with the pandemic and the sterile lack of atmosphere at the games has led me to a total rethink of the game I grew up with and fell in love with that I have almost no desire to go back into NWHL despite how great it is. I cancelled my bt sport/sky package 4 months ago and really don't miss it. Spurs will always be my club I can't escape from it but the only times for now that I'll watch them will be with a few mates down the pub. (when they reopen! )I’d hazard a guess that Mason looks at the experience of Toby and dier and feels that is less of a risk than green players. Whom knows. But I agree about not watching any more.
