Eric Dier reveals Ange Postecoglou does no tactical work in training

Bayern Munich defender Eric Dier has revealed that Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou does no tactical work in training.

Dier, who spent ten years at Tottenham left the north London club in January to join German giants Bayern Munich.
