No way is Dier above White in my view. I also think putting Davies above Tomiyasu is a little homerish as well.
That's the "Bend over and cough" gloves thatAny chance we can bring Eva Carneiro over also ....
Dier has been good for us under Conte, we have badly missed him when he is out, White is ok but not really much either way for me. . Tomiyasu has a few good games but also bad games for Woolwich. Davies is reliable if very unspectacular.
Only defender out of the lot that truly seriously impressed me ability wise is Romero and he got fucking injured for months. Rest can all be upgraded to some degree.
Sure, and I would have been worried that by settling for "mid range" I end up with another Sissoko or Nkoudu, and feel like "why bother"
I'm not sure of your point.... You alluded to randomness; yet my counter was that I think there was a perceivable ilk of player.
I genuinely think Lamps will get the best out of him. He's perfectly placed to do so, seen how he was such an incredible goalscoring MFer himself. I really wouldn't be surprised if Dele got back to a level where he's scoring 10-15 a season and coming back into the England fold.
It'd be good for us too cause we'd be getting lots of money from EFC in bonuses.
As long as he doesn't score against us, I'm cool with it

Yeh I think Lampard will do well with him but they are in a mess. I wouldn’t expect Dele to be killing it for a while, this season it’s about not getting relegated.
They've still got a pretty decent squad. If Franky can sort out their defence, they've got the goods to do some damage upfront.
I mean, they can now play Donny at CM with either Allan, Doucoure, Gomes...obviously fitness has been an issue, but once they're all healthy, that's not a bad midfield.
And up top, they can play Dele off DCL, with the likes of Richarlison and Andros on the wings. Rodon and El Ghazi aren't the worst subs either.
I wouldn't mind them stealing a few points of our direct competitors for Top 4
Imagine meeting Everton in a dead rubber game last day of the season and letting Dele walk it into the net 25 times to trigger a goal bonus clause....As long as he doesn't score against us, I'm cool with it
Dier hasn't been good at all under Conte, but I know many fans want to pretend that he has.
For me White has all the same faults as Dier but much higher upside as well that is why I think he is above Dier. Both flawed players but at least White has some positives, Dier is just crap.
I don't rate Davies as being reliable at all, I think he some how got that reputation and now no matter what happens people say he is reliable.
I agree I think Romero is clearly a step above the others.
Daniel approves. Fuck goal difference, its all about book balancing
Why is White better than Dier, what's the upside you talk of. Him being younger?
He ability to pass and progress the ball is to me the big advantage he has on Dier. I also think he is a much better defender but I know people want to overrate Dier and hate White since he is at Woolwich.
Dier on the ball is a nightmare. He will try long balls but absolutely sucks at it. White at least has some competence when playing the ball which is important in today's game with how most teams play.
Both have errors in them, neither are steady, but White has some positives to his game while Dier has zero.
I don't think there is much difference between the two to be honest and White hasn't really played at higher Level than Dier yet.
Really don't think Diers passing is as bad as you seem to think it is.
Sure Dier can make a mistake but his all round game is at a good level
The fact that you were lurking around in another thread passing judgement on anyone else being biased is fucking ridiculous!
Get some help, mate.
Please explain - same faults, higher upside - just words with no context.
Let me start you off -
White is a relative CB midget who can barely heads the ball - Dier is 6 cm taller and considered good in the air ..... Dier hardly ever tackles - White is the top tacking player at Woolwich
Was that what you meant by 'all the same faults' ??????????
No Dier is tall but sucks in the air. Who considers him good in the air? He is terrible for his height.
Dier hardly ever tackles because he rarely is around the players he is supposed to be covering as he loves letting them run free.
Same faults is that both seem to switch off defensively leaving guys open. Neither is looked at as a good defenders that you would reliably want marking top players.
This is an intervention. You appear to have navigated to the wrong site.
Tottenham just £3m off Middlesbrough valuation to sign Djed Spence
Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Djed Spence over the past few weeks but it looks unlikely Spurs will land him this month.tbrfootball.com
Another 'Levy Masterclass'. We can all celebrate this window. We lost Traore for 5 million. We Lost Diaz for 5million and we probably gona loose Djed Spence for 3 million. Levy really has a knack of making it look like we are actually bidding, when we actually have no intention of buying.
Two signings. Both not considered the best in their previous club.
What have we learnt?
1) The more things change, the more they stay the same .
2) The Leopard will not change his spots.
3) Top 4 to us, equates to winning the League.
4) Even with Conté, we still are extremely Spursy.

Ah so it's just "your opinion" which is fair enough, obviously not supported by any facts, data or statistics ..... so just another whining post to ignore.
