Tottenham Hotspur star Eric Dier seems to rate his teammate Mousa Dembele highly.
Tottenham Hotspur star Eric Dier has told The Times that his teammate Mousa Dembele is special.
Dier, who can operate as a defender or as a midfielder, has also explained what makes the former Fulham midfielder so good.
When asked why Dembele is so good, Dier told The Times: “Have you not seen him play? Mousa’s just special, full stop.
“He’s incredible because he’s massive. One of his legs is two of mine. His balance is incredible.
“His movement physically is so superior and then to ally that with the technical ability he has is incredible.”
Top-quality player
Dembele has been on the books of Tottenham since the summer of 2012 when he joined from Fulham for a transfer fee reported by The Daily Mail to be worth £15 million.
The 30-year-old has established himself as a key player for Tottenham and has been playing well this season.
The Belgium international is a player who strikes fear into the hearts of the opposition defenders, as he has the ability to skip past players and run at them.
For Tottenham to comfortably finish in the top four of the Premier League and win the FA Cup this season, the former AZ star has to be on top of his game in the final weeks of the campaign.
