I’m guessing dross and treacle?Never been a DM, dress on the ball, runs in trickle
Fine if you read it in a South African accentI’m guessing dross and treacle?
This is a guy who would continously play a washed Matic because he had a hard on for him.
I wouldn't count on him ousting Dier so quickly.
We're a side with a lot of problems at present, he's just one of them.5 clean sheets this season. Eric played in 4 of them.Eric Dier | Football Stats | Tottenham Hotspur | Age 30 | Soccer Base
Eric Dier. (Born 15 Jan, 1994) Defender for Tottenham Hotspur. Current season & career stats available, including appearances, goals & transfer fees.www.soccerbase.com
Played 11 lost twice over 90 mins with Eric.
Whose fault was the 7-2? Eric didn't play.
He had a bad game last night but who had a good game?
How many games do we give him?The guy has barely played in a year...he was showed up a bit last night but he's still making his way back to full match fitness...

Didn't play at United...I think I'm right in thinking he's played in all Mourinho's games? That makes four on the bounce - he should be approaching match fitness.
Did anyone?...Didn't play at United...
Eric was fantastic v Burnley on Saturday. IMOe isn't fit enough at the moment to do 2 a week but Jose wants to get him match fit.
He won't play v Wolves.
Folk need to understand he is what we have. If we could get the miser in charge to pay for Dennis Zakaria or Wilmar Barrios yes we would be better, but he wont and we need a DM. Jose seems to think the best option in the squad is Deir. So it's time to suck it up. I dearly hope we are searching the world for an alternative
If that's the case, then you have to seriously question whether Mourinho is the man for us.

It shouldn't take more than this, and yet yesterday he just lumbered around without an apparent care in the world.
I've got this feeling that he'll play against Wolves and turn in another woeful performance. Skipp may be an answer but I don't think he'll get a chance before Middlesborough.
