Dier, the 'semiluso' soldier that Mou had to go to get out of the bathroom

The Tottenham Stadium scoreboard marked the 77th minute and Jose Mourinho ran out the tunnel on his way to the locker room. Few understood the movement but the new cameras installed in the bowels of the Premier stadiums were in charge of unveiling it. These recorded Mourinho rushing into the locker room and shortly after they caught Eric Dier running back to the green.

The Englishman felt a powerful call from nature in the middle of the match and had to leave the field. There was no other choice. Chelsea, which at that time was 0-1 up on the scoreboard, had a clear chance. Setúbal's coach got nervous when he was 10 and went for the Englishman. Dier, as best he could, came out and closed a remarkable performance that earned him the Best Player of the Match award, which ended up posed in the 'toilet of the facts' and photographed for Instagram. “The real Man of the Match, “added the footballer, whose photo already has 215,000 likes.

“I was not happy but I couldn't do anything else. Nature was calling. I heard there was an occasion but luckily they didn't score,” Dier said at the end of the game. Mourinho, in a similar vein, recognized the episode with a certain resignation as inevitable and also with pride. “Dier had to go, he had no choice. Maybe it's a common thing when you're dehydrated, when you've got nothing left. He knows he had to go to hurry him up and come back for what's left. He's a great example for everyone. The problem was, it wasn't pee. For him to leave the field … you can imagine. I knew it and I went to pressure him to come back as soon as possible, “he says.

The Portuguese assures that the situation was due to the enormous load of parties of this beginning of campaign. “It is the consequence of the inhumanity of having to play two games completely dehydrated, tired, without energy, dead … Of course, he will not play on Thursday because I will end up killing him,” he said. Since the Premier began on the 13th until next Sunday, when they face Manchester United at Old Trafford, Tottenham will have played up to eight games between the League, Carabao Cup and the qualifying rounds for the Europa League. This Thursday (9:00 p.m.) they face Maccabi Haifa in the last phase of the European playoff and at the end of the week, the faces are seen with the Red Devils accumulating four meetings from Sunday to Sunday (1-1 vs Newcastle 1-1 vs Chelsea, vs Maccabi Haifa and vs Man U).

A half-soldier

Of the 41 games that Mourinho has led Tottenham, Eric Dier has been present in 29 of them, thus becoming his seventh most used player after Aurier, Alderwiereld, Lucas Moura, Davinson Sanchez, Son and Harry Winks.

In addition to trusting him in the center of the field and also as a central, both have a good relationship as seen in the Amazon documentary and the language helps. Although Mourinho, after years in England, is fluent in English with Dier speaking Portuguese. The Tottenham player, born in Cheltenham, moved to Portugal with his parents for work reasons and played for years at the Sporting de Portugal academy, even achieving dual citizenship.
