Here’s a tip for people ....stop judging people on their form 3-4 years ago.
He WAS better. Now he’s just another washed out member of Pochs 2016-2019 Nearly Men who didn’t live up to the hype when presented with numerous shots at silverware.
Poch, Dele, Rose, Eriksen Take a bow.
Robbie Keane coming back worked out pretty well if I remember
Christian Eriksen 'could make stunning return to Tottenham'
Just a year after departing Spurs for Italy in a cut-price £17.5m move, the Dane finds himself seeking pastures new after falling out-of-favour under Antonio Conte.
Son DOB 8/7/92
Eriksen DOB 14/2/92
I'm not re-writing history I'm just giving my opinion. I think he was overrated and I said this long before many realised it. People think he's the greatest thing since sliced bread because we were graced by mostly average players in the preceding years but in 20 years if we continue at the level we're at Eriksen will go down as a player who fans remember but that's about it.
SSN reporting that Mourinho wants him back. Only problem is salary.
Make of it what you will.
I'd have no problem him returning if it's written into his contract that he'll tackle and not take corners/dead balls.

His form was declining even before he left us. No assists this season apparently? Is that what we need.
He wanted to leave for a new challenge so why would he be motivated to come back.
Also I doubt Jose was happy with the way he behaved himself in his final year at Spurs.
I don't think this would be a good move.
But maybe as a 6 month risk idk?

Well he's earning less now than what he was going to be earning at Spurs so money has never been an issue for Eriksen
Thing is when he was at his best here goals and assists wise is when he played out on the right

Oh, it's not a joke?????????
Well, it should be!!!!!!
Returning players never works out well, especially when they are past their sell by date. We are so above giving players a retirement home.
I once joked that if certain people had their way the average age of the squad would be 38.

I think they are actually serious
Klinsmann, Sheringham, Defoe, Crouch all came back and did solid jobs as far as I can remember.
There’s no fate behind it, it’s down to the player, the team fit, the moment etc and we need creativity in midfield whilst operating on a limited budget. Can’t think of many that fit that particular niche as well in all honesty.
Well I like the Eriksen -sen -sen, song. 
We need options in the second half of the season what with the hectic schedule and games coming thick and fast - atm we're in trouble for goals if either of Son & Kane get injured and creativity if Ndombele gets injured (assuming GLC is in/out due to injury most of the time)
Eriksen as cover might not be the worst option on a short loan deal - in the current climate someone who knows the club and can settle in quickly might be the smart move.
Whilst i do think he's broken and shadow of his former self, as a squad option and not relied upon as a first XI player he can still do a job i think.
