Both are teammates for England's U18, and Dorrington has been doing very well in youth football, is a handful of Championship games all it takes to say there's a gulf of ability and experience between them?

We're not chucking in Dorrington who has never played senior football when Dier is set there. Just isn't going to happen. I get that people literally hate Dier now and want him publicly flayed, but it's gotten a bit over the top.
Not in any squads... Not even in the cup.
I’ll take a £50 bet with you this is EXACTLY what happens.
That he's publicly flayed, or that Dorrington plays ahead of Dier?
I'd take a £50 that Dier plays more minutes this season than Dorrington.
Ange no doubt has a plan, but I don’t see Dier being any part of it.
I don’t think it’s a hate thing, more that we can all see he’d be absolutely turned inside out in a high line.
Doesn’t possess the pace or show the tackling aptitude for it.

Yup Dier's done, I'd wager that Ange would opt for Emerson/Davies if we are in desperate need of CB cover, from time Dier didn't even make the Carabao squad on Tuesday suggests that his time is over.
Paid off or Saudi/Turkey in your opinion?
What does hate have to do with it? He's clearly a poor fit for the system. I really don't see what the issue is with having a youth player as a backup, half of Pep's bench are youth players and he's fighting for the league.
Bookmarked. Now to figure out how to spend my winnings.
Paid off I reckon once Saudi/Turkey closes
Just shows the data analysis scouting differences vs 15 years ago when you would have had queues of bottom half PL clubs trying to take him as a recent England CB without any due diligence beyond their own arrogance…. Redknapp, Pulis, Bruce, Allardyce etc
Wish you all the best Daó

There's been a number of lower sides who have shown interest in him, even Fulham, he just prefers to see out his contract.
