He had long periods when he was a good player and didn’t make mistakes.

His form fell off after his Appendix removal (well slightly before, which was likely symptomatic of the issue brewing), back then I posted a paper which showed how recovery times are significantly longer in athletes post this procedure (think it was an extra days R&R needed on average, but couldn’t find the paper again recently when thinking about this).

After becoming aware of this data, I aligned it to his performances, as he soo often seemed to play very well Saturday (say) and then Wednesday would be soo far off it. So it appeared he became very solid in a once a week schedule, but, twice weekly was beyond his bodies capability to adequately recover.

His non-alignment to Anges need for high line and quick turn and sprint recovery CB’s is no fault of his, he was in the England squad less than 2years ago (early under Conte, where the 3 covered his mobility/agility limitations).

Hope very much that Tuchels methodology works with his characteristics, he is one of us.

He’s also two stone heavier than he was when he was good. Far too bulky and slow on the turn, heavy feet and lumbering. Watch his first few seasons, he was quick and nimble
 
At the time of his procedure, I went on a little rant, about the appendix being far from Vestigial, as often erroneously claimed by scientists. It is shown that when under duress, from bad bacteria, the friendly bacteria will use the appendix as a safe haven, so removing this causes issues.

This may well be why he needed to run off the pitch, that game, to have a number2, as his biome was/is somewhat compromised.

Ok LOL. Over my head tbh but I don’t doubt this kinda injury isn’t straightforward and binary

When you have a bacterial shortage, especially the key strains, then it is more difficult to break down foods, and the Bacteria are life true alchemists, able to transform foods into the forms our bodies most need.

When you (Dier in this perspective) suffer this, often people will suffer bowel irregularities or issues, and then as a consequence over eat, as the body craves foods of high quality (and the bacterial replenishment which is incredibly difficult on any Western Diet).

An example I hope can be understood, a Carrot grown to full ripeness in great quality soil may have 500mg Calcium, a poor one may only have 50mg (or thereabouts, many years since I studied this). Also, the supermarkets have changed the dynamic, as previously green grocers would focus on high quality foods, but volume and price is the Suoermarkets way (some American supermarkets used to sell items with their Brix levels shown, not sure if they still do).

Brix is a demonstrator of plant sugars, if high and with a fuzzy line reading in a refractometer, this shows high quality (lots of minerals bound to the sucrose chains).

The worse the bacterial status of the host, the higher the need for high quality.

If fruits/vegetables are low quality, then they often take more energy to digest than they supply. Also if not harvested at adequate maturity they still have NPN (Non-Protein Nitrogen, where the toxic principle is Potassium Nitrite), this means that the Amino Acid chains in the Vegetable are not fully complexed and cause Nitrate burden (Nitrate bound to haemoglobin creates methaemoglobin which is the opposite form to that which carry Oxygen, as well as potentially not supplying the requisite nutrients.

This is a key the why there is such Obesity and issues with health, as we are inbuilt to crave sugars, as our bodies know that in nature the crucial nutrients come bound to those.

This is fundamentally why I think Dier has carried excess weight these past few years.

Riddled, wrapped inside a paradox.
 
Here is a Brix Chart, which gives growers a guide on their produce and its quality, it is based on LaMotte growing and testing (Originates from focus on Grapes, for Wine, I think, but expanded by Reams to include many Fruits and Vegetables :

What this doesn’t show is the “Fuzzy Line” aspect, which denotes TDS which should ideally be high (think of Water, that should be low, as that is to go to the the Kidneys chiefly to help wash us out, in plants it is the reverse as we are designed to uptake minerals/vitamins/traces from matter not fluid).

Anyway, that’s hopefully interesting to the odd reader, would be epic if the Vegetable growing area Tottenham set up these past couple of years, is using Biological Farming (Brix methodology), so our players can be sure to be eating nutrient dense, fully ripened at Harvest foods!

Any DIY growers, would highly recommend getting a refractometer and testing your produce, have done UK Supermarkets for a few things, and it is not good, mostly poor, sadly.
 
I don't seem to be able to come out of the 'Weight loss / diet' thread. It follows me wherever I go...
Sorry buddy, maybe the universe is trying to tell you something?!

Just felt Eric was a good example to describe what I see in many (myself also, but not weight in my case, just nutritional cravings gone awry).

Please scroll past and sorry for those who don’t see this as on topic, with Anges intensity schedule/play I see it as intrinsically intertwined and hope the club has people who understand these things in place.

I remember Andros Townsend being asked who was the fastest runner over 50m in training and he surprisingly said Eric Dier. Well I’ve never seen that pace translate onto the pitch and he looks really slow now

A huge thank you, as someone that has recently been diagnosed as diabetic this chart goes a long way to explaining a few things.

I am surprised that that my Dr has never mentioned this.
 
Did anyone watch the game today? Was he any good? From the comments Bayern fans were kind of surprised (in a good way) of his passing ability/range.
 
Anyone watch the BM v Union Berlin game tonight? Our Eric came on for the whole 2nd half in place of Upamecano. Munich win 1-0. Harry didn't score the goal.
