It wasn't his man.He was better today, not sure about great.
He watched another ball go over his head while his man was left unmarked in the middle of the box. Luckily the player flubbed the chance so it didn't hurt us but it is way to regular of an occurrence with Dier this year.
It wasn't his man.
NopeThe play I am talking about was 100% his man.
At around 17:30 the WBA player crosses into the box, Dier is standing next to Grant and let him go then watches the cross go over his head to Grant, he make no attempt to stay with Grant, no attempt to stop his header just ball watches as he loves to do.
Perhaps you are talking about a different play because that was his man.
Nope
That was Toby's man.
Once the ball goes down the line, the first CB moves towards the near post to cut out the low cross. The 2nd CB (who is marking no one) should be tucking in and getting tight to the attacker.
This really is very simple stuff.
You've never played football at any levelDier is standing right beside him, lets him go to move towards nobody and then watches the ball go with zero attempt to stop it.
Toby realizing dumb dumb Dier let his man go free at least makes an attempt to stop the play.
This is really simple stuff.

You are such a new person to football it's becoming so obvious each day
What i don't get is your crazy opinions on football you are a clue less cunt and should behave in the manner of a newbie football supporter
Read my post again and do try to have some sort of comprehension of defensive drills.
The first CB goes towards the near post, for 2 reasons. Firstly to stop the low cross. Secondly, so that the attacker can not run in front of him.
The 2nd CB, also moves forward to cover the high ball and the attacker.
The FB should tuck in as well should be no further wide than the far post.
These are drills that are worked on day after day.
I´m going to rewatch today´s match, but I think it was his best performance in a very long time - probably since he became a CB.Thought he was great today, very solid.

I don't need to know anything about you apart from you are a class a knobLOL
You are so clueless it funny to see you try to talk about me like you know anything about me.
That's a very fine rebuttal.I have read your incorrect post and have a fine comprehension of defensive drills.
You can keep spouting your nonsense it is still wrong. Just because you keep trying to repeat it doesn't change you are wrong, as usual.
He has admitted he is very new to football but his arrogance is ridiculousThat's a very fine rebuttal.
Full of knowledge and well made points.
Your complete and in depth knowledge of football leaves me astounded.
Where did you get all this knowledge from?
