Jose Mourinho is apparently a huge fan of the Englishman, having personally scouted him on many different occasions. Eric Dier has made the base of midfield position his for the England national team, although he has also played in the back four this term for Tottenham.

Calm on the ball, defensively sound, and a Manchester United fan he might be what the club needs. It’s quite evident that he is not the finished product at the moment, but at the age of 23-years, he has plenty of time to do it.

Again, he might not be as good a passer as Carrick is, but with time, he might develop those skills as he has shown in the last year or so.
