Seems a nice chap but is dreadful tbf

He was terrible but I'm not sure its fair to single anybody out they were all dreadful and worst of all completely outfought (not for the first time this season).

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Pochettino played him in midfield and he’s been playing there for years, so as far as I’m concerned, he’s a midfielder and a s*** one at that.

He's rubbish, but it didn't matter who played when they were sent out with those negative hoofball tactics.

Don, to be fair to Dier we know he is not that good. I was more annoyed with the non show from Kane, Dele, Son and Moura, they were awful, they have talent, just never turn up in the big games though.

We were just as s*** under Poch mate. 3-0 Brighton, 7-3 Bayern. Small selective memory dude. Nothing to do with Jose, the team need reshuffling and average players need to be dropped.

All 4 were atrocious mate, but Son is the one that disappoints me most. Another ridiculous sending off. He needs to work on his temper as that’s the 3rd sending off now for thrashing out.

DM is an absolute priority position. Painful watching at the moment in there. Even when we win. Facking awful footballing midfield

posted on 22/12/19

This is what I don’t understand is that your going into a game against Chelsea with technically good midfielders who can transition the ball quickly and you start Sissoko and Dier, I just don’t get that and it’s a worry José can’t see that either..........was there going to be any other outcome today ???

When was the last big game they all turned up for together. And don`t say Ajax in the semi-final, we were gifted that game, after being outplayed for most of it.

Son is becoming a liability, completely ill disciplined. He won a freekick, then does a really stupid thing.

Dier is Mourinho’s new Matic.

Dele scored against United
Son scored against bayern
Kane scored against bayern arsenal Leicester and liverpool
Lucas scored against city

That's all this season

And Spurs won none of those matches.

Oh Christopher you really do need to up your game.

When Dier played alongside Dembele that season with prime Rose and Walker bombing forward, he did very well in midfield, mopping up, putting out fires, dropping into the back line etc, which prompted United to bid for him.

Today`s Dier does not have Dembele alongside him and we no longer push teams back with our full backs, so he is exposed more. I also don`t think he is as fit as he once was.

He needs to play alongside a top quality CM or in a midfield 3 imo.

So they're supposed to single handedly win us those games are they

If we hadn't conceded 2 to united would that have meant Dele had turned up in that game? We would have won and he would have scored after all? what kind of logic is "we didn't win so they didn't turn up" ffs

Dunno why you're so obsessed with trying to blame them when it's clear the problems are the midfield and defence - they have a track record of scoring big goals in big games, I've given you examples of them scoring against top sides this season. It's not their fault the rest of the team lets them down.

Maybe the shine is coming off of Jose?

Does seem bizarre that Jose persists with Dier. Used to be a decent player in first couple of years under Poch but he is absolutely dreadful now.

You don't sit in the South stand just right of the middle quite high up do you per chance? I'll not say first name but I bought a ticket from "name" Don and the seats were outstanding. For spurs v Bournemouth. Just wondered if it's such a coincidence is all
