Another half decent performance by him. Seems like Mou trust him..

Am I the only one who thought he was poor yet again and looked like he was trying to run through treacle?!

I don't see the point in playing him anymore, for the last year he's been very poor with the odd glimpse of old eriksen but what's the point in trying to build him back up again when we would have to put up with more poor performances to get there and then see swan off elsewhere. Might as well put that time into someone who will be here next season like lo celso.

Should be told he will be frozen out completely until summer which will be bad for him come Euro 2020, so best if he leaves in Jan on the cheap. why bring a player on who clearly wants to leave. Makes zero sense.

He's by far Denmark's best player. He will walk in to that team playing or not.

Yep, for me he was one of our better players in the game, created more in the 15 mins he was on than rest of team did in previous 75, just like he was one of our best against Olympiakos.

He didnt do anything wrong at least. He just shouldnt be played ahead of GLC or even Sess.

Agree but that's on Jose. Christian showed some desire and made some tackles yesterday, which we didn't see under Poch.

Yep you are. He did more than Kane, Son, Lucas, Winks, Sissoko & Aurier the the whole game. And played with some passion at least.

Point to be played or not that's on Jose, and he clearly trusts him. More than GLC which is worrying.

Are you related to him?

I would have preferred to see Lo Celso come on before Eriksen. Simply because Lo Celso has a future with us and Eriksen don't. But I do understand the reasoning behind subbing on Eriksen. It did work against Olympiacos where we had a similar match situation.

It's just that you seem to take criticism of him personally. Some of it is unnecessarily harsh but you seem very protective of him.

So you're not answering my question. This is a forum after all isn't it? I'm curious to why people like Jose is playing him then, and he's actually doing better at the moment when he comes on. And people still bash him because they believe the media bullshit & can't recognize when he's actually decent. So blinded. Remember Christian hasn't said anything since the summer. I think Jose would freeze him out or not playing him if that was the case.

So how about we stand by our players when our manager clearly does? Obviously he believes Eriksen is better then GLC right now and rightly so. You play your best players because you want to win the game. Not players who just came to a new country, doesn't speak english, don't know the league yet, hasn't shown anything in his time here. You play the most creative player in the PL for the past 5 years because you wanna win.

Contract or not.

It's got to be Mourinho's decision as he is the manager although one would imagine that he will be phased out of the team as he is not exactly the future given that he is intent on leaving (which is his choice and if he wants to leave on a free that is also a choice that he is entltled to make). My observation was just that you seem to take criticism of him personally.

He is our Prince Andrew. Should be nowhere near the team.

.... and again.

Well yes and rightfully so as he doesn't wanna be here. But when Mourinho has no other choices, and GLC is way of the pace he's gotta play.

Which post do I take criticism of him personally?

Well whenever anyone says anything about him you invariably seem to get annoyed or respond with a doh, dislike or disagree.
