Tottenham Hotspur supporters on Twitter are seemingly split with their opinions on midfielder Eric Dier, who is still yet to play his first minutes of the season.

For the fourth time this term, the England international started a Premier League match on the substitutes' bench when Spurs hosted Crystal Palace on Saturday, and for the fourth time he wasn't brought on by manager Mauricio Pochettino.

That may not be a complete surprise given the competition for places in midfield for the north London outfit as things stand, with Tanguy Ndombele and Dele Alli also having to settle for a spot next to Dier at the weekend.

With 210 appearances for the club to his name, he has shown he has been an important player for them in the past, but he looks to face a big battle to work his way into Pochettino's plans at the current time.

That said, the 25-year-old clearly has some support from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium faithful as you can see from the comments below, although there also appears to be plenty of individuals happy he can't get into the starting XI at the moment.

Here is just a selection of the Twitter reaction...
