Tottenham midifelder Eric Dier is enjoying his latest England experience even without his club pals.

Spurs pulled Dier’s midfield partners Harry Winks and Dele Alli out of the squad due to injuries along with star man Harry Kane.

Full-backs Danny Rose and Kieran Trippier remain with the squad as England’s Tottenham contingent is halved for the upcoming fixtures with Germany and Brazil.

Dier posted an image onto his Instagram page after a very rainy training session at St George’s Park, alongside Manchester United defender Phil Jones.

Dier has been playing for Tottenham in two roles lately, at centre-back as well as in midfield.

Where he will play for England in their upcoming games is unclear, but the fact he gives them two options is a huge boost for manager Gareth Southgate, and assures his involvement at next summer’s World Cup, fitness permitting.
