Because Mourinho joined the club with no prior up close experience of any of the players, had to make quick decisions about who he could trust, and Eriksen was one of those who he felt able to trust more than the alternatives. Recently Lo Celso, Lamela (who was injured when Mourinho arrived) and to a lesser extent Winks have earned his trust and Eriksen’s role has been reduced. Hopefully Ndombele returning to fitness will have the same effect.Why else would he still be involved in the setup when he clearly doesn’t want to be here?
Not a chance in hell Mourinho makes any decision pre or during a match which isn’t what he thinks will help us win.
