If being the Unknown. Most seasons we do not need a 3rd GK but this last one we did and we had one. It will be a risk if he is not ready and I have not heard any reviews of his ability.

Lyon should still be an attractive option for him. He could make more money at Everton, but at Lyon he has CL football (which to be fair he has at Lille as well, but he'd get a bigger paycheck and CL at Lyon).

If Eriksen goes in this scenario then its a piss-poor window
After 2 seasons of self imposed transfer bans you'd expect at least 2 signings by now.
Seriously, what does the club gain by sabotaging the best manager we have had in decades?

Hardly anyone bar Madrid have signed anyone worthwile.
As long as we eventually make good signings I don't care tbh.
Any other club that hasn't signed anyone for 503 days?
Yes and that's fucking shite from Levy who I've criticised many times regarding this.
2 different situations though. He can be criticised for not signing anyone last 2 windows but it's not alarming that he hasn't signed anyone yet this window being that hardly anyone has.
When the social media manager decides to spice up his Wednesday by boiling piss...
2 seasons?
100% agree. Unfortunately Eriksen seemed too be left out of the fray when Spurs started locking in contracts for Kane, Alli & Son. In my opinion he is more integral to this team and worth at least as much money as these other players. It will take some time for another player to step in and be as effective in Spurs style of play. Its been fukn frustrating to watch as a fan, so I can only imagine how disappointed Eriksen has been throughout this process, and I think this has had a massive effect on his performance last season.
If we do in fact lose Eriksen, and drop the ball on securing Lo Celso or other replacement due to tight fisted offers, we could end up without a true world class playmaker next season. No point having all this class up front if no one can get the frickn ball to them. Winks has been solid with his passing and distribution, but he doesn't possess the vision and creativity Eriksen displays.
Eriksen was by all accounts offered a new contract at the same time as Dele, Son and Harry were. With a base salary of 150k a week which would be equal to what Son and Dele are on. That contract is still on the table as well.
But according to most media it is Eriksen and his agent that are dawdling on signing it.
Rumblings of United now turning their interest towards Max Aarons after Palace knocked back their bids for AWB. Could be posturing to try and spook Crystal Palace, but would be a bit of a shame if true as I would have rather liked us to go for him (Aarons, that is).
Its only my opinion, but i think at the time these contracts were offered, Eriksen was worth more money than either Alli or Son. Son went on to have a massive season, and sure, justified his paycheck. Alli - not so much.
Based on Alli's performance last season, I would have to say he is currently overrated and overpaid.
