He gets paid either way and he's never been first choice CB. The market for him seemed tepid at best, this may have been his best deal.No way Dier signs that new contract without a promise he was 1st choice.

Jose is very faithful to those who he can rely on.Like Toby’s bumper contract, perhaps Jose has seen something and is confident it will happen (like Kane’s return to form; Moura’s improvement - even Serge’s reduction in brain farts; Hugo’s Renaissance)...perhaps we should just trust the guy who seems to know what he’s doing?
Willian incoming.Jose is very faithful to those who he can rely on.
I'm amazed he hasn't tried to get some more Chelski or Man U players especially Matic

My hope is that Jose will quickly realise just how bad Dier is without us losing too many games in the process. Then Sanchez, Toby and Tanganga would be the main 3 centrebacks for us. And we sell Dier next summer to westham or other such club which is more his level.Well with Levy at the helm and (MAYBE) Europa football next season there's no way we're going to be paying for a world class CB. You're unfortunately right.
Not gonna happen. Jose thinks he's the second coming to Chiellini.My hope is that Jose will quickly realise just how bad Dier is without us losing too many games in the process.

Andersen generally talks gibberish but on this he has a point though. Most of those Liverpool players you mention are reserves/sqaud players, the problem is most those Spurs players you list are regular first team starters. And even some of those Liverpool sqaud players would get in our first team most weeks ahead of them.
Do you really think it's just a coincidence that we are now a mid table team that are 35 points behind Liverpool now?
Difference is - those are all squad players who help out here and there (bar Henderson)_
In our case - all those are weekly starters making the first 11 bang average compared like for like to our Top 6 rivals. Table never lies - we've been mostly shit
What is this quiz you speak of? I love a quiz, me.I'm happy he's signed. Ashamed to say that I did the quiz about Eric...........I only scored 1/10
It was on the official siteWhat is this quiz you speak of? I love a quiz, me.
It's to avoid any chance of him walking away on a free, same as Toby.Personally, I just hope this is to protect/increase his transfer value.
He's not a top class CB.
No.
Nononononono.
I am talking about future.
I am saying that we should keep those mentioned players as squad players and at the same time sign better players who would be starters.
Opposed to selling mentioned players and have super slim squad so that when some of the new starters would get injured then we would have to use some academy players in their place. Also having those guys around will allow us to roatate to some extent, so new players would not have to start 100% of the games.
Just like O'Sheas and Parks were used in ManU during Fergie time.
RomanzoCriminale - I usually don't react to "disgaree"s but... what is here to disagree with.
Do you prefer situation where we would sell Foyth, let go Jan, sell Dier, maybe even sell Toby (though his recent performances have improved) and buy one top class CB and then go to new season with Sanchez, New CB and Tanganga? Because... we don't need players who are not superstars / guaranteed starters ??
