Spurs fans fall further in love with Eric Dier after discovering this 2012 tweet

Becoming one of their own

Long before he pulled on a Spurs shirt, it seems like Eric Dier had an anti-Arsenal bias.

With the North London derby coming on Sunday, a 2012 tweet from the versatile Tottenham defender is earning massive love on social media.

While on loan at Everton three years ago, Dier played in the Toffees’ reserves 2-0 victory over Arsenal reserves and posted this message on his Twitter account after full time.

While his spelling leaves a little bit to be desired, we presume his hatred for all things Arsenal forced him to type this tweet with such vociferous fury that he didn’t have time to proofread.

And he’s now reached hero status among the White Hart Lane faithful.
