Dier's Tottenham Career is Virtually Over Even in the Injury Ward Situation he only Heated up the Bench








The prevailing view is that Eric Dier's (29) career at Tottenham is over.

British media ‘The Boot Room’ predicted on the 27th (Korean time), “Many soccer experts predict that Dier will not be in Tottenham’s future.” This is because Tottenham did not send Dier to the game even though he was currently in the ‘defense injury ward’.

Tottenham lost 1-2 in the 13th round home game of the 2023-2024 English Premier League (EPL) season held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 27th (Korean time).

5th place Tottenham (26 points), mired in three consecutive losses, has switched places with 4th place Aston Villa (28 points).

In this game, Dyer only stayed on the bench. Even before kickoff, many people expected him to play. This is because defender Christian Romero was unable to appear on this day due to being sent off in the previous game, and Mickey van der Ven was also out of action due to injury.

As a result, there was a possibility that the experienced Dier would appear in the game in the absence of his fellow players.

However, Tottenham coach Angie Postekoglou sent Ben Davis and Emerson Royale to central defenders.

Dier, who joined Tottenham in 2014, has suffered from numerous criticisms over the past year or two. Because he had poor defense.

He played as the starting center back under coach Mauricio Pochettino until last season. Dier played the sweeper role in the three-back and showed good performance, earning him a spot in the England national team. At one time, he was embroiled in rumors of a transfer to Manchester United, led by manager Jose Mourinho.

However, Dyer had a difficult time due to a hernia and a virus infection, and showed more and more deficiencies. He became a bomb for the defense due to his slow feet, frequent mistakes, poor judgment, and unstable build-up. It's been a long time since fans turned their backs on him.

Ahead of this season, Coach Postekoglou boldly dismissed Dier. He used the newly acquired van der Ven and Romero as starting players, leaving Dier on the bench. As a result, Tottenham went undefeated, conceding only 9 goals in 10 games (8 wins, 2 draws) since the opening of the EPL.

Meanwhile, an unexpected opportunity presented itself to Dyer. Van der Ven's hamstring injury forced him to play in the last two league games in a row. However, he became the one who caused the team to suffer consecutive losses due to poor defense. And he was on standby for the Aston Villa match 'just in case', but didn't even get a chance to be replaced.

‘The Boot Room’ said, “It is safe to say that Dier is virtually done with Tottenham
