Eric Dier happy playing anywhere to help Spurs

Eric Dier is happy to play anywhere for Tottenham.

Spurs play on Tuesday at the same time as their top-four rivals, knowing they must win at Norwich City to keep the pace at the summit.

Dier could appear in midfield or defence at Carrow Road, with manager Mauricio Pochettino taking advantage of his versatility once again with Jan Vertonghen out injured.

"I'm happy to play anywhere. We've got good players in every position," Dier said. "There's so many options for the manager so it's just up to him.

"I've played in a new position so I'm starting from scratch. Everyone was doubting it at the beginning but I wasn't too bothered as long as the manager was happy.

"I've been improving more and more in midfield and it's given me a lot, my England debut and a lot of games for Spurs. I'm very happy to be playing wherever the manager wants."
