Player watch: Christian Eriksen

[Ronwol196061]

They are all entitled to have shit games.
I just don't think Eriksen imposes himself enough in games.

 

[Haddock]

Mate if you can be bothered, loads of us on here has given tonnes of examples about when he's scored/assisted/played well against the big teams. If you want to ignore basic facts, then fair enough.

Thank you, officer. But at this point I've concluded that @Ronwol196061 is just trolling and it's better to not waste any more time on him.

 

[Ronwol196061]

No I don't blame Eriksen but our lack of creativity all season could have something to do with Eriksen him being our most creative player.

He dictates our play, and when Winks is injured, he's the only player who can. Even when he doesn't dictate games, he frequently gets goals or assists. Are you seriously expecting him to control games against the likes of City when he's got Wanyama and Sissoko behind him and City have Fernandinho, David Silva, Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva.

 

[Ronwol196061]

Not trolling at all its my view if Eriksen I'm afraid.

No it's because we have no creative players apart from Eriksen lol. He still got 17 assists and 12 of them in the PL, the 3rd most out of anyone.

You mention Sissoko but Thank God for Sissoko.. He cut through defences time and time again and helped us as much as anybody to create fluidity. He lacked when he reached there its true. But he was our best player on more than one occasion he outplayed Eriksen in the final too despite the penalty

 

[Ronwol196061]

Yes t

That's true but when we needed it he often was silent. And what's with those corners do you have any info on that?

 

[THFCSPURS19]

No he didn't.

helped us as much as anybody to create fluidity.

If this is somewhat a suggestion that Sissoko contributed as much to our creativity as Eriksen, then I think I'm going to stop here.

Dictating our play is good but there were too many back and side passes for me.. Slow build up's hurt us

The fuck is this shit?

Yes t

I'm sorry Ron, but if 'his corners are shit' is your argument then there's no point in me replying. Thankfully, I can see beyond that minor issue and recognise how he dictates our game and frequently gets crucial goals and assists.

 

[Ronwol196061]

No he didn't.

I'm talking about creating space opening up defences. I'll stop there

 

[Ronwol196061]

I actually think Eriksen is a great goalscorer but his corners are shit. I really think he has a mental block with them

 

[Goobers]

So a midfield three of Ndombele, Winks and Eriksen. Doesn’t sound too shabby. Keeping them fit would be key.

 

[Ronwol196061]

Does anybody on here seriously think Eriksens corners are good?

 

[THFCSPURS19]

They're pretty average but I don't think any reasonable person would see that as a reason why he should be sold.

Id be happy with NDombele Sissoko and Winks using any 2 behind Eriksen (or another creative player) in mid
It's just we could use the 100mil

 

[dtxspurs]

Does no one else think that Poch has asked for his corners to be hit at the front post? Why else would we do it every single time?

 

[Ronwol196061]

I agree I didn't make that the reason. We need more fluidity either through a NDombeke/Eriksen down the middle but Eriksen plays often too square. We need much more in direct play
