Eric Dier Accent Draws Mixed Reactions Following Bayern Debut

Sky Sports host Simon Thomas has poked fun at Eric Dier, the new addition to Bayern Munich for his accent during a German TV interview after his debut for the Bundesliga team. Dier on loan from Tottenham made his first appearance for Bayern in a 1-0 win over Union Berlin. While some fans joked about his accent resembling that of former England manager Steve McClaren, others defended Dier, pointing out his multilingual background and upbringing in Portugal. Dier who speaks English, Portuguese, Spanish and German received praise for his linguistic abilities. Despite some criticism, Dier expressed pride in his debut for Bayern stating that he’s happy to contribute to the team.
