Bale's freekick ability was good but overstated, Eriksen is already better at them than him IMO
The problem with Eriksen playing LM though is he cant collect it from the defence, and he has very limited space out on the left. He'd dictate the game an awful lot more in the middle
Kids quality. Need to start playing him in the Modric role and build the of the squad around him. LVG will love him.
While it's nice having him score goals every once in a while with some great free kicks, his corners and set pieces into the box have been shocking.
I think he needs to play in the number 10 role but never in a midifield 2 like Modric was asked to do. The kid can't tackle for shit.
And Sherwood continues to play him stuck out on the left.
Reminds me of when Harry played Modric on the left and everyone thought we'd wasted our money.

Everyone thought we'd wasted money when he was played in the middle (under Ramos?) until he was moved to left and started putting in big performances drifting in from wide in to spaces between the lines. After he settled to the pace of the prem he moved back in to the middle.
Eriksen is fine on the left provided we set up the team properly. I
