Would like them both while they are available, Eriksens time with us is done, i dont think his heart is with us any more and if he stays and leaves on a free next year we wont have to mess about finding his replacement. Get them done DL.

It seems Poch number targets this transfer window are Ndombele, Lo Celso and Sessegnon so lets hope Levy can deliver on all three.

Mind you it would be a dream if we could get in addition to the above Fernandes and/or Dybala (with Eriksen signing a new contract )

Bring in both and let Eriksen go. He will be available to go for nothing in January anyway.

Agreed but still its a strange one. When he sees that neither his dream club or anyone else is after his signature you would think he comes to see he is at the best place for him and knuckles down. Where else does he think he may fulfil his ambitions?

Yep, he could think of it like he had a dream, it didn't come off so im staying and giving my all, he must have been gutted though that RM didn't come for him, Its all about his mind set now.

I’m a huge Eriksen admirer and I don't think we will ever see him overly ’excitable’ he is just that type of character!
He is more of an introvert and personally, I would not be too hasty to see the back of him.

If we have agreed fees I'd take both & sell Eriksen after Thurs & before the European window closes.

As it stands we have no one & whilst taking one might keep the balance if Eriksen were to go, it would take both to improve the squad.

Watching Eriksen in the last couple of games I'm not sure he's fully focussed on playing for us & we need to move on & improve the squad.

While i completely agree with your sentiments, it's not really practical and would only further weaken what little bargaining position we have with Eriksen's sale. But yes, i wish we could do what you suggest for the good of the team.

Any player in the last year of his contract can sign a pre-agreement for another club.

It's actually 6 months not a year and you said he will be available to go for nothing in Jan which is wrong - we can still get money for him if a team chooses to purchase him in Jan ala Ross Barkley.

At the moment we don't have either but if I had a choice of 2 from 4 then I would go for Fernandes and Lo Celso over Dybala and Coutinho every time. I think they would be a great creative fit for the team.
