Erik Lamela was left wowed on Instagram by Eric Dier’s thunderous goal during Tottenham’s 6-3 win over Team K League from their pre-season in Seoul, South Korea.
Tottenham striker Harry Kane asked fans to provide their thoughts on Dier’s long-range goal and also asked to provide the centre-back with a rating out of ten.
After watching the footage of Dier’s goal, which came after a surging run and on his weaker left foot, he didn’t hesitate to give a 10/10.
The Sevilla forward, who left Spurs last summer after eight years in north London, added ‘what a goal’ and in the comments section of Kane’s video he told his former teammates ‘see you soon’.
‘One-two and left foot,” added with a shocked and clapping emoji said Lamela. “What a goal. 10 for me. Well done vikingo. Enjoy guys, see you soon.”
MORE GOALS FROM DIER NEXT SEASON?
The likes of Kane, Heung-min Son, Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski will be expected to provide the big bulk of Tottenham’s goals next season.
But sometimes, those players that can make that bit of difference are the players at the back or those who aren’t expected to score.
Last season, Dier didn’t get on the scoresheet for the club, and in truth, given his technical ability and threat from both boxes, he should be adding a few to his name.
The same applies to the other defensive players in the team because it would spread the goals around and make Antonio Conte’s side more dangerous.
But it would also ease the pressure on the main guys who are expected to find the back of the net on a regular basis.
