If we use that theory on every player we should give Kane £500 k a week
That's what he should get paid.
And if he was paid that, would I be allowed to expect a goal every week?
Or would I be a “melt” when the man being paid 2 Million pounds a month to score goals, doesn’t score goals?
I'm proud of you. Surprised you lasted that long
Haven't caught up with the thread as I've been away all week but I know if I look back a few pages there will be a ridiculous overreaction to Eriksen coming on late and playing a few passes. If Lucas and/or Kane had taken any of their first half chances then the Eriksen discussion doesn't even happen. As you've mentioned, fresh legs vs any knackered Championship legs are going to look good but I urge people to remember back to last season when we really needed him, sometime around the end of May, for example.
Here's a stat for you guys:
2019/20 assists:
Sissoko - 1
Eriksen - 0
I dunno Sam I don't suppose we will ever find out.
We’re obviously a stronger team with him in the squad. Failed to turn up a lot last season but does have match winning performances in him. If he signs a new contract without it being a crazy amount I’m ok with that (not that it’s my decision). Needs to win a few of us around I feel
An interesting point that one because last season when it was all about stats I posted this
Well he didn’t score or assist against Villa but played very well.
Yet people can’t except that you can have a shit game yet come away with an assist or a goal...ie Eriksen last season.
Well anyway, he did a stellar job last week, despite the level of the opposition and for me earned a start against City...we’ll have to wait and see what Poch makes of the transfer talks this week (if true) and if he wants to persist with phasing him out.
Hopefully he can have an influence against tougher oppo, but I’m sure if he doesn’t, it will be someone else’s fault, or “City put 8 men on him”.
Danish news are quoting The Independent as far as I can see

Not being funny but if Eriksen would rather try his luck at Atletico Madrid than stay at Spurs I would think less of him. Real Madrid or Barcelona I understand but Atletico would be a weak choice when you consider the upheaval that's gone on there this summer.
Not sure he'd suit Simeone's play either.
But he makes sense as a Griezmann replacement.
If only everyone were as balanced as you. Eriksen has periods where he's poor but one good game back and all of a sudden the world class train is back in the station.
I've never seen a Spurs player in my time overrated more than Eriksen but it's probably just down to the lack of creativity within our squad during his time here. Hopefully GLC, although not a direct replacement, can offer some of it going forward and the majority can stop believing the world will end when comrade Christian leaves.
