The 2019-20 season has seen a ton of interesting storylines surrounding Tottenham Hotspur, and the latest narrative of intrigue concerns Eric Dier. He’s had his ups and downs, on and off the pitch at White Hart Lane, and his future with the club is in doubt, with his current contract set to expire next summer.
Dier couldn’t find as much playing time in midfield, so he’s been converted to a central defender and seems to be handling the adaptation well.
“Eric is playing really well and adapting very well to a position that he thinks, and personally I also think, is a great position for him,” manager Jose Mourinho said of him after the win over West Ham United.

I like Jose Mourinho to tactic his way into a W here. The Europa League qualification is still very much for the taking, for both sides, regardless of the result here.
