Player watch: Christian Eriksen

[deanostheyido]

If the shoe is on the other foot, people would be complaining that we put such a poor offer in for a player that can be world class on his day. We're well within our rights to demand more than a petty 11-15m for him.

 

[Qualsonic]

Let him go

Let him go

 

[Yiddo100]

Let him go

Can’t hold him back anymore

They really need CE now probably, Brozovic left there game v Lecce on Crutches due to nasty ankle injury, there waiting for swelling to go down before doing test on tuesday so they can have better understanding of the seriousness

Daniels reaction from the new Inter offer , he doesnt smile or giggle much, even Levy deserves a good chuckle now and again ?

 

[Trotter]

It makes you wonder why no one came in for him in the summer? I am not aware that we refused any bids?

Yet Inter have a firm interest now. I guess we were demanding £40m+ in the summer and it’s now a lot more appealing.

I reckon we will get the £20m Levy is holding out for. It still represents massive value to the buying club. If they don’t pay up now, Eriksen’s agent will just demand much higher wages/signing on fees in the summer as they will know clubs are not paying a transfer fee.

Inter also then run the risk that various other clubs show an interest and they don’t get their man.

I think they will pay up.

We reportedly quoted Man Utd £80m in the summer for player in last year of contract, that is when they went away.

He rejected them. He wants to go abroad.

I know that, was in reply to post that we were possibly asking for £40m plus for him in the summer, a team made enquiries and was quoted double that,

 

[nailsy]

Guarantee we reject it and demand more. If we do hope he fucks us and turns round and says alright il stay till the summer go for free

I'm still waiting for my refund from this...

Just get it done. Absolutely guarantee he’ll fucking start today as well

That's United tax. We've always had it and I'd rather it that way tbh

What a step down from Madrid and Barca

 

[markiespurs]

What a step down from Madrid and Barca

Agreed

Got himself to blame though. If he had put in the kind of performances he is capable of, instead of the shite he’s produced over the last 12 months plus, then Madrid and Barca would be all over him.

 

[chrissivad]

I think what ever offer comes in will be rejected.

With the way Jose has spoken on his future already decided, I can only assume he has a deal lined up already.

So there is no point in us trying to push him out the door, he is happy to wait until the sumer to go.

Can’t hold him back anymore

Let him go, let him go
Turn away and slam the door

[@MirrorFootball] | Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy will reject Inter Milan’s latest bid for midfielder Christian Eriksen.

Spurs’ chairman is still refusing to accept a fee any less than the £20M valuation which the club have placed on the Danish playmaker.

How dare Levy try and get the best deal for a quality player. What a shit chairman.

This argument is only valid when we have some sort of leverage. In this situation, we do not. 11m or 14.5m or whatever is being reported now is a better deal than nothing in the summer. Anything 11m or above and we've made back what we paid for him plus profit. If we've really rejected an official bid of 11/14.5m and Inter says "sod it, we'll sign him in the summer" and we end up with an unhappy and underperforming player for another 5 months and lose him for nothing then it's horrible dealing by Levy.

Fine, if it’s peak Bale with a couple of years left on his contract. But look at the context. In less than six months, Eriksen walks anyway. And he’s not peak Bale, so isn’t going to impact significantly on our season in a positive way- if anything, he’s a hindrance.
Think of a house you own that’s got subsidence- which is impacting on your neighbours property and your liable for this- and your ownership of it expires in the summer. Why wouldn’t you get rid of it for something as quick as possible?

Seems that the first bid was rejected but that we're moving toward a compromise.

Inter are ready to improve their bid to Tottenham for Christian Eriksen on next hours (€15M offered, €20M asked by Daniel Levy). The total agreement is getting closer now.
