Don’t understand why he keeps getting minutes if we are this close to reaching a deal. Why risk him getting injured and losing all that money?
More to the point why risk added exposure. How on Earth are Inter still interested in him?

Please Inter millian just come get him. Uber DHL whatever just take the mug.More to the point why risk added exposure. How on Earth are Inter still interested in him?
Part of me is genuinely starting to think Mourinho is picking him in the hope he gets injured to spite Conte.He seriously needs to go. Had enough. He’s playing at less than 50%.
More angry that he’s being picked.

Because there's literally no other logical reason for him to be even in the squad anymore, never mind getting minutes. It's disrespectful to the other players and the fans.
So he won't be match sharp for the Euros, that's karmaBut if he gets injured this drags on and on and on... I don’t think I can cope anymore
Never underestimate the lengths Mourinho will go to to piss someone off.But if he gets injured this drags on and on and on... I don’t think I can cope anymore
doktordanny1 was it the fans to blame again for Eriksen today?
When I see Eriksen on the pitch I'm sure like every Spurs fan I get pissed off at MourinhoNever underestimate the lengths Mourinho will go to to piss someone off.

José is trying to hurry up Inter. He’s playing chicken with them.Don’t understand why he keeps getting minutes if we are this close to reaching a deal. Why risk him getting injured and losing all that money?
Depending on Jose's end goal, it might be a good thing, I suppose. It's naive for us to think we know more than 1% of what's really going on behind the scenes at any given point, and maybe Jose's playing a mind-game for noble reasons.I remember Mourinho used Balotelli and Crespo as wingers in one game while at Inter just to send Moratti the message that he needed reinforcements. He's quite resourceful when it comes to stuff like this and I'm sure he sees that Eriksen is awful on the pitch. Not sure why he'd do it, but there is a possibility he's doing it on purpose.
(By the by, it winds me up when people criticise managers, who get to assess their players behind closed doors for dozens of hours each week, for not playing certain players, assuming there must be some kind of agenda against the excluded player(s) or that they must be better than whatever dross is out on the pitch instead. It's literally impossible to know more about a player's real everyday level than their managers, coaches and teammates.)
I would generally agree, but training isn’t the same as playing. If it were, all managers would get it right all the time - which they don’t. It’s the interaction of players that is important, and that is the discipline.It's literally impossible to know more about a player's real everyday level than their managers, coaches and teammates.)
