Useless, really?! *sigh*Nicely taken goal but other than that he was useless today and why he's still taking corners is mindboggling
Agreed.I'm bored to death of people talking about fucking corners on this forum. The fact is that we've scored more than the average from corners. Yes he takes some poor corners, so does every player in the world, I swear some of you don't watch any football apart from Spurs.
Eriksen is a bit frustrating because he clearly has so much talent but is just that little way off being a world class player.
The criticism he gets is ridiculous though, you have to appreciate with players like him they make us tick just as Modric did, you really appreciate them once they're out the team. Granted he should perhaps score and assist a few more than he does but he contributes a lot to our attacking play and we really wont find many better players in that position than him. Just get behind the lad, great goal today such composure and tekkers.
Its even more frustrating today as Carroll took a very good corner and then Eriksen wanted to take the next corner which was poor for the rest of the gameI'm bored to death of people talking about fucking corners on this forum.

Carroll just took a good corner why not carry on letting him take them from the right wing

Are you just talking out of those 3 or in total? As Kane as 14 goals in the 2015/16 season.. Eriksen has 4....The criticism Eriksen gets does amuse me when you compare it to the free ride Alli and Lamela get on a more regular basis. Is he not top of our scored/assist table?

What about from open play? Bar the two free kicks against Swansea he has done fuck all since the Sheff Utd game a year ago. It's easy to quote stats but bear in mind up until recently he has been taking almost every corner and every free kick.
With Lamela you see that massive desire where he's desperate to make something happen in the final third, with Eriksen you see very little of that from open play and what is amusing is how people were hoping we weren't going to sell him to Real Madrid and now they're comparing him to Modric!
He half arsed stuck out a leg in our defensive third yesterday for the second game in a row (almost costing us a goal both times), we're supposed to be creating a squad that fights for each other, not one where the odd player thinks he's too good to get stuck in.
I'm looking forward to the "that's just the way he is, he's a flair player" comments now.
