Eric Dier to join Manchester United

This rumor has been around for a while
Would love for it to happen desu

>>75987136
I dont think he's an elite dabber so it may take half a season to bed him into the team

>>75987136
"[Player], valued at [random number], is a leading target for Manchester Untied and sources at [player's current club] claim his head has been turned by the interest."

Can't wait to see about a hundred different variations of this over the course of the summer. At this point, who have Man United *not* been linked to?

>United pays tens of millions for an unremarkable player
100% true

>>75987136
In a world where Stones and Sterling cost 50 million each, there is no way that Dier will only cost 40.

Loads of people drawing parallels with Carrick. Carrick was far better than this sperg.

>>75987136
Do you believe every single thing you read?

>>75987215
Why would anyone draw parallels with Carrick? Dier is a defender who can sometimes play midfield, he's got nothing in common with Carrick.

>>75987209
Kinda feel the same way. This is Levy we're talking about, plus Dier still has 4 years on his contract.

Tottenham now have a new stadium, a strong squad and manager, champions league football, located in London and are in a really strong position, dunno why the media keeps pretending Man U can steal any of their players

>>75987193
I believe it's a tactic used by attorneys like Raiola or Mendes to inflate their players' prices at this point

>>75987265
Man U can steal their players by offering insane wages, Spurs can't hope to match offers like 200k or 250k per week. Inevitably they're going to lose their stars unless they pull off some kind of miracle over these next few seasons or some trigger-happy billionaire buys the club.

>>75987232
If Man Utd were buying him it'd be to play in midfield. 11 years ago Man Utd bought Carrick from Tottenham for what was then a big fee. Considered an uninspiring signing at the time, with Chelsea buying the likes of Essien, he proved to be a great signing and a catalyst for future success. Some are saying Dier could do similar. I don't agree because (1) the United team is absolutely nothing like it was a decade ago and (2) Dier isn't nearly as good as Carrick was.

>>75987265
Mention Man Utd = more clicks

>>75987302
But when the only thing they can offer is money they are bound to get only mercenaries who only care about money, and Dier doesn't look like that kind of guy to me

>>75987302
Spurs haven't lost any of their stars since 2010 except Gareth Bale, only a Barca, Real Madrid or Bayern Munich have enough power to force players away from Tottenham these days

>>75987265
Tottenham will collapse next season and fall out of the top 4. They're WHL babbies and they're record at Wembley is tragic.

>>75987354
They're losing Kyle Walker this summer for sure, and probably to an English team

>>75987358
I give them better chances for a top 4 finish than Yernited or Slippypool lol

Maybe Arsenal as well depending on if Wenger stays and what players they bring in

>>75987354
>Who is Luka Modric

Though I agree with your sentiment. Tottenham, and basically every other half-decent PL side, can resist bids from fellow PL teams for their players now because everyone's got so much money. Man Utd bid more for Bale than Real did but Tottenham didn't need the extra £10m so they sent him abroad. It's the primary reason English clubs are continuously failing in the CL these days - the league's best players aren't filtering up to 2 or 3 top teams.

>>75987136
i foresee dier consequences.

>>75987433
Oh yeah I forgot about him
but yes, the top 6-8 premier league clubs would rather sell them abroad than keep them in England, that's generally how it works now

but

can he dab?

>>75987136
>just fuck my career up

>>75987413
Tottenham will have a similar experience in Wembley as West Ham have in their new stadium. They haven't been impressive away from WHL this season. They rely heavily on their home form to make top 4.

Dier is shut, but I wouldn't expect anything else from Mourinho. Who the fuck wants to play at Man U? How did they earn a record amount this season? They're the most ubenjoyable team to watch by an absolute mile and have won nothing significant.

Pare de forçar esse preto inútil aqui. Esse merda não joga nada é só um meme da Globo.

i don't see this working out much better than morgan schneiderlin

Then they would be retarded. Even when he plays in "midfield" for Spurs he's really just a 3rd CB.

>>75987397
Kyle Walker is hardly a star, he's not even a guaranteed starter.

>>75987397
>probably to an English team
who else would buy an english player?

>>75987673
Eric Dier could play for mid table Italian clubs but English players just never leave because lower wages and fuck learning other languages and cultures

>>75987572
Não estou forçando, só achei engraçado.

>>75987701
The same Dier who lived in Portugal from 12-20 and speaks fluent Portuguese?

>>75987701
Dier grew up in Portugal and came from Sporting's academy...

>>75987318
But Dier is much better than Carrick atm.

Football isn't played 3, 4 years ago, its played now.

Not sure we need him if we have Herrera though

>>75987802
>But Dier is much better than Carrick atm.

They play completely different roles, comparing the two makes no sense

>>75987701
Dier is not your typical Brit. He came up through sporting's youth ranks and he's fluent in Portuguese I think. He grew up a different cultural environment where leaving the country isn't something to be afraid of.

If a proper offer is on the table from a different country, he'll most likely leave. Specially if its a top team once hr reaches his full potential.

>>75987826
>DMF is two different roles

Really made me think

>>75987861
Dier doesn't play DMF, he plays CB in Tottenham's back 3. Even when he's listed in the pre-match formation as a midfielder, he always drops further back than Alderweireld. He's not a particularly good passer either. He's got more in common with Wanyama than Carrick.

>>75987136
>Tottenham selling to a PL rival for less than 100 mil

haha, nope. not Levy.

This window will be hilarious, United will be linked to pretty much every player because we all know as a fact that they'll pay over the odds for mediocrity.
