The rendition of that song was so loud on the TV on Sat! Sounded like every person in the stadium was belting it out.
You've lost me.

Yep poor today. Got done a few times and his passing was off.way out of his depth at that level today. he actually gets skinned twice when loftus cheek comes through and sterling hits it over the bar. got skinned down the line by havertz which resulted in a chance for them too. common fixture him getting skinned in the box even when its congested! thats a serious worry. we need better in that position. not exactly like hes excellent on the ball.
will suffice against bottom half sides that we can dominate but in games where your weak links are really tested hes a worry.
I get what Dierโs saying but If he actually thought we were on City and Liverpools level, or a team that beat us 3 times by a total of 8-0โฆ then I question his intelligence.Eric Dier says he was 'hurt' by Antonio Conte's comments about Tottenham last season
Tottenham star Eric Dier has revealed that it hurt him every time Antonio Conte spoke about the gap between Spurs and the top teamstbrfootball.comEric Dier says he was hurt by Conteโs comments about Tottenham last season
On numerous occasions last season, Conte was asked about being on the same level as the likes of Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea, but the Italian always maintained that his side were not there yet.
Back at the start of January this year, the Italian claimed that there was a big gap between Tottenham and Chelsea. Later in the same month, after losing to the Blues, he claimed that the gap between Spurs and the top teams is โvery largeโ.
Even earlier this month, the Italian claimed that Spurs have to go โstep by stepโ to reduce the gap between themselves and the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City.
The intention behind Conteโs comments may well have been to motivate his players, but Dier has admitted today that he was really hurt by some of those remarks.
He told Sky Sports: โAs a player, when he said that, it touches your pride, you know? It bothered me when he said that. I think itโs good for us to hear those things because, yeah, when he said that, it hurts you.โ
You have a strange obsession with hating Dier. You even bring him up in threads that have nothing to do with him.

It's not the guy Eric when in the stand for is it ?You have a strange obsession with hating Dier. You even bring him up in threads that have nothing to do with him. Strange.
He's a lightning rod for a certain type. Not sure why...He is the better than Maguire and Guehi at the moment and was always better than Mings. Not all great teams have 11 world beaters.You have a strange obsession with hating Dier. You even bring him up in threads that have nothing to do with him. Strange.
