wingbacks look like they've been addressed with perisic, i thought doherty was class in his run before he got injured, when he finally got a run at actual wingback with the actual first team, looks like we will get spence too whos an upgrade on emerson. CM also been massively improved by the addition of bissouma.
yea dier is good for squad depth, so is davies, but as your main CB in a side thats looking to take on two juggernauts in liverpool and city...its laughable. the problem with dier is hes not good enough on the ball, and hes not good enough at actual defending either. the amount of goals we conceded from low crosses last year because hes let dangerous balls go past him in the box when he could of easily stopped it, or the fact hes very easily skinned (brighton). if he was exceptionally good at defending or on the ball then you could sort of justify having him as your main CB. but hes lacking in both areas when it comes to being in a side looking to take on the elite. to take on the elite you need elite players, we got an elite front line, we got a very very good midfield now, but the defence is weak bar romero. lloris we all know plays a lot better with a good defence in front of him, stick a few donkeys in front of him and he turns into a clown again.
