SCOUTNATION!
:drool: he looks like exactly what we need. Please make this happen Daniel
SCOUTNATION!
Recon after Willian, we have agreed terms and done a medical already !!!!!!I had wondered if that was the case earlier when they allowed us to discuss terms, brilliant news if true.
I've been leading the charge this summer in advocating for Eriksen.. I've made many points but there are two more specifically I want to mention.
1. While playing for an average Ajax team in the Champions League last year, he recorded 1 goal and 4 assists in 6 group matches against Dortmund, Man City, and Real Madrid.... At 20 years old, I might add.
2. He has scored goals in 5 of the last 6 Eredevisie games he's played and scored for Denmark, so he really is in top form. There's a reason Overmars said they don't want to lose him now, because he on the precipice of greatness.
Top top top top signing if we close it out.
Best squad since '87 for me
It's certainly another vacancy in the side that he can fill and another reason for his signature.He takes a mean dead ball too.
With our battalion of monsters we could really take advantage of free kicks and corners, not to mention replacing GB's direct FKs.
Don't think we should underestimate his dead ball ability as we do lack a set piece specialist in the likely absence of Bale.
Don't think Lamela takes them for Roma but could be wrong.

The top to bottom talent we are putting together is pretty unreal. If Holtby and Eriksen are our answers for the creative midfielder, that competition is going to be a ton of fun to watch.

Its also bringing down the average age.
Works for me.I think he doesn't, but he is very good at it.
Lamela for the right sided FKs and Eriksen for the left sided

One thing,
didn't he say he didn't want to leave Ajax for a club not in the UCL?? Ajax have accepted our offer but will he? suppose it depends how convincing Baldini/AVB are and if he feels he isn't going to get a better offer anytime soon
