I hope he does really well at his new club. I've got a lot of time for Eric - he's been a loyal, reliable, dependable member of the club for several years. He's always given his best and, apart from a few howlers, he's never done anything to piss me off.

In my opinion, he should have a stand named after him - or at least a few seats, over in the corner there...

Tuchel doesn't seem to know what he's actually getting

Bayern Munich boss Thomas Tuchel said in a news conference on Thursday: "He's a specialist at centre-back. He has also played as a six in the Premier League, but not any more for a long time.

"We're getting him for the centre-back position, can play right or left centre-back as well as in back three."
 
This signing just says to me that Kane needs help settling in to life in Germany.

They aren't buying him on footballing merit.

Give it 18 months, Dier will be at Sporting Lisbon and Kane returning will be the media thing every window like it was Bale.

I explained this in the Transfer thread, if Tuchel goes back to his 5-2-3 formation he fits Bayern well, he hinted that when he explained the reason why they signed him.

He's only good for defending balls into the box.

Would do a good job playing for a bottom half side.

Unless Bayern plan to concede a lot of possession and defend deep in their own box, I can't see Dier being a natural fit.
 
There's too much disrespect on here for someone who gave his all and for a good while was a fan favourite.

He's moved on now and I wish him nothing but the best, as much as I dislike Bayern. He'll always be a yiddo and welcome back anytime.
 
Dier does not deserve all the shit he gets. He has been here for years and has been loyal and played well for many of them. At CB he played well enough to get selected for England many times. It was only towards the end of last season when he started making massive errors. Clearly he does not fit the current style but he is still good enough to hold his own ina team playing a style that suits him.
Whilst I am glad he is leaving he goes with my best wishes and will be welcome back as an ex player when hie is retired.
 
I can see it now, Eric gets too excited to see his old Muckamore Harry in first training session and injures Harry, their record signing for the rest of the season.

The Eric Dier redemption arc complete
 
Always a player I have had a lot of time for. He has always given his all even if it wasn't quite enough.

Under Poch as a DM he was great but had a solid defence behind him and always felt he needed to play with a strong CB when he moved back there to get the best out of him. A vocal leader that we often didn't have elsewhere, I found it sad to see his decline with us.

I'm sure the constant change of managers and styles over the last 4 years hasn't helped him and hope this change will help him pick his career back up.

All the best Eric, thanks for everything you gave the club.

I think we have the winner. This is Bayerns obvious attempt to keep Kane happy. Harry will have his idiot brother asking Levy if he can come 'home' in 18 months as he will be good for Home grown in our championship winning squads ECL list.
