With Ben Davies in the lad's ear he is as good as signed
Not really noticed him as yet which might be a good thing. Winks has been really winks
Mostly on Mepham just ball watching and not following his man. Don't understand how supposedly pros can be so off.
Can't really judge him playing with this lot. Wales are shite.
Dier is a left sided centre back even if he is right footed
To me he is quite like Skriniar. Both are very aggressive and likes to get in early while the opponent has their back to them. He also tends (or is instructed to) follow his man out of the area especially when they are likely to receive the ball.
More similar to S.Ramos than VVD, which is good, as VVD has some extraordinary traits to pull his style off.
None of our current CBs are very aggressive and the classic CB pairing is one aggressive and one holding the line. Which is probably why Mourinho has targeted the like of Skriniar and Rodon. Rudiger looks nothing like them so don't know about that one!
Obv. Ingest with a healthy dose of salt. I have barely watched either Skriniar or Rodon. Just a surface level analysis.

he plays on the left but is right footed. Would be better to have an actual left footer there. So many of our attacks used to begin with vertonghen whipping the ball up the left hand channel to Kane.
Meh.........
Upped our bid a bit and trying to sweeten it with loaning him back.
That sounds pretty reasonable to me.
Watched a good bit of him over the past few days and he mostly plays on the left, very comfortably, he's a really good ball player. Undecided on the rest of his game but I've seen enough to think he'll be a good PL player. Hopefully he gets the full game against Ireland in a few days time, interesting to see him play against channel runners like Connolly/Long.
Sounds like an utter waste
