Tottenham have been offered the chance to sensationally re-sign Christian Eriksen on loan.

Everything surrounding Eriksen makes me think of the saying "The grass isn't always greener on the other side" and if the various reports over the last month or 2 with him being open to a return, does make me wonder if now regrets leaving the club.
The Amazon "All or nothing" clearly shows Levy saying we will pay him what he wants but he was honest and made it clear he wanted a new challenge. I see this so often in the workplace, people think they deserve a better role, they're growing stagnant, not enough opportunities, etc., so decide to leave but on leaving, some regret it and try to find a way to come back. Maybe this is the scenario Eriksen is in.
And also, as per previous comment, I agree that we have a solid squad that should really be fighting on all fronts now and with the results going how they have, losing out to a Leicester or Everton will be a big blow so if Eriksen was to come in and compete with Lo Celso and N'Dombele, I wouldn;t be against it...assuming he gives 100% and shows he wants to be back
I dont think he did anything wrong. It was clear that he needed a new challenge and perhaps experience a new culture etc. I dont think that we should lambast him for that, it clearly wasnt a financial decision because we would have matched anything.
Unfortunately it seems that it wasnt a Conte decision coupled with Covid etc it has just been a shit 10 months.
Youre right the grass isnt always greener but i dont think he went there because he thought the grass is greener but moreso a new challenge.
If we had been offered this in jan, then for all his loss of form, we'd have jumped at a year's extension.
OK, we have ndom and lo celso coming into form, but both seem to get quite a few injuries and realistically we'll have a creative midfield of winks and sissoko for many games this season.
I want to win the league this season and we'll really kick ourselves if a club like leicester do it again.
We ran Eriksen into the ground and he has deserved his year's holiday. If he can prove himself fit and motivated, then it would be hard to say no to a player who knows his way around, is premiership hardened and is one of our best players in recent years.
If the story is just made up, then as you were.
