There's no loyalty in football. Even King would have left had it not been for his knees. We made Eriksen who he is, he's gonna say tah very much and move. We just have to know beforehand and sell him for the best price possible unless he signs before the summer window.
We can't afford for him to be our Ramsey.
Its pretty ludicrous to say Ledley King would of left if not for he's knees...There's no evidence because it never happened.

There isn't much loyalty in football, or in any other business for that matter, but it's a two way street. Clubs are not loyal to their managers or their players unless it suits them - just look at the disgraceful way Levy treated Martin Jol. Players are paid handsomely by PL clubs and the players' responsibilities are, among other things, to perform to the best of their ability on the pitch for the length of their contract. Once that contract ends then they are entitled to move on to another club if they so wish.

Eriksen has given Spurs superb service ever since he has been with the club. He keeps a low profile and doesn't create problems off or on the pitch. He's done his bit and Levy has done his piece, but it seems Eriksen would like to move on. As fans we should just be grateful to have had him play for us. Sorry to see you go Christian, thanks for your service. No hard feelings, in fact just the opposite.

He is 27 now. Maybe he has an ambition to play for barca or madrid in his career. I don't blame a player for having those goals. We just have to hope we can get our hands on a big trophy whilst he is here because he makes us tick.

No evidence either way but you do feel that had he been fully fit it's likely he would have probably looked elsewhere to further his career, I mean we were absolutely shit at the time.

That’s just wrong on so many levels.
