Went South American with a delicious meat stuffed plantain. Glorious stuff highly recommended.

Sorry. For some reason Lady Brady sprung to mind when I looked closely at the stuffed plantains

Dier played as a DM again vs. Brentford apparently...

This can mean one of two things...

A) We're papering over the cracks, experimenting with playing someone in a position that clearly needs addressing
B) Dier actually looks quite good in that role, and Poch is thinking about playing him there

I remember Ledley King playing as a defensive midfielder for us a few times (and England, if I remember correctly?) and he was brilliant. Not saying Dier is anywhere near as good as Ledley, but I do see some similarities in their game....

If you've been looking really hard at the market for DM/CM transfers and find nothing that really appeals, it makes sense to get creative rather than run out the same line-up as last year. Unless Pochettino had this switch on his radar for a while and is now deciding to give it a try while failure is consequence free.
