Les Ferdinand
Harsh man![]()
35 years supporting this club, I've seen all the greats. Bergsson, Nethercott, Doherty, Scott, Calderwood, Vega. I'm benchmarking Dier against the best.
The pass from Fernandes was absolutely fantastic though. I didn't even spot that the pass was on while watching on TV. Martial's control was then also first class as Fernandes really pinged that ball into him hard. I thought it was magnificent defending from Dier to be aware enough to get there and make that block. I think Man Utd would've scored there against most defences in the PL.
Yeah it was but I think Dier has got to be aware of where the attacker is and he lost him. It was some recovery though - I was waiting for the net to bulge. And I thought, overall, Dier was magnificent on Friday. I'm not trying to criticise him for the sake of it. Just thought he had a hand in creating the opportunity for Martial.
