'I know it' - Dier 'cries' after finding out he’s dropped to a 79 FIFA 20 rating

ERIC DIER was far from impressed with EA Sports after his FIFA 20 rating dropped to 79.

The Tottenham ace and his team-mate Davinson Sanchez revealed each other's new rating for the hugely popular game that is released on September 24.

Dier, 25, has struggled to cement his place in Mauricio Pochettino's side after struggling with a hip injury.

He started 18 league matches last season and the arrival of Tanguy Ndombele appears to have made his task of earning a regular run of games even more unlikely.

And it could be a reason why his rating has dropped from 80.

It appears even the player himself was braced for the disappointment.

Before the ratings were even revealed, Dier said: "I know mine is going to be disrespectful."

After guessing his score wouldn't change from last year, Dier looked more than disappointed as Davinson revealed the number 79.

One fan even joked that he was about to cry after appearing to wipe his eye.

He said: "FIFA made Eric cry."

Another supporter added: "Dier's fuming."

A third chimed: "Eric Dier should have been higher!!!"

Dier even vented his frustration after Sanchez was given just 74 for his pace.

He said: "A message to EA Sports, I think they can do a lot better with Davinson's score.

"This is not real (pointing to his pace).

"That's not true, not true. It's wrong, just wrong."

The Colombian added: "See, FIFA is always against me!"
