Lets find ourselves a young eriksen again instead
Like I said before, why should we help save his career when him and his agent tactically bent us over a barrel and forced us to sell him cheaply? I won’t forget the fact he publicly asked to leave just 4 days after our CL final loss in a game where he produced absolutely fuck all.
Fuck him. I’m much happier seeing him rot on Inter’s bench than ever come back to us. Prick.
Yeh, wouldn't disagree.The point being - we need depth in the squad to ensure we have sufficient creativity once our first team are out. Which of course is right.
But is the right answer, bearing in mind whoever came in would likely be back up, not be to find a younger (frankly cheaper) player (a youngster for instance) who would be more prepared to act as a back up and who could develop?
As much as I loved him as a player in his prime, I think we should be looking elsewhere.
£200k a week for a 28 year old back up feels wrong
Yes it is.So this is really your view after 7 years of service?

Christian Eriksen: Spurs stats show EPL career was one of domination
Christian Eriksen has finally left Spurs – but his Premier League career cannot be sniffed at. He kept plenty of 'greats' in the shade.www.squawka.com
I did at the time, yes. As every fan did. However he wasn’t churning out 2/10 performances for 18 months and running his mouth off to the press. He left us at the very top of his game and went on to be the most successful British export ever. We were also a very different club to what we are now. Bale was so far above our quality as a club. He also didnt run his contract down. Eriksen was lucky to be starting for us, let alone agitating for a move elsewhere. The fact he now sits on the bench on a weekly basis is testament to that.Presume you felt the same about Gareth Bale returning given he agitated for a move, skipped training, him and his agent bent us over a barrel etc.
True, but We did receive a world record fee in return.Presume you felt the same about Gareth Bale returning given he agitated for a move, skipped training, him and his agent bent us over a barrel etc.
Yes it is.
Actually the fact he spent so long here makes the way he left even more despicable. He never gave any indication whatsoever for years that he wanted to leave, we offered him more money than what he’s currently on at Inter Milan then when it came to his last 18 months, his agent went AWOL and refused to engage in talks with the club. He did an exclusive interview with a big newspaper in Denmark 4 days after we lost the biggest game in the club’s history saying he was leaving. He bent us over a barrel and made us sell him quickly and cheaply when we could’ve easily gotten close to £80m for him when he was in his prime.
I’m not expecting you to agree, your username is evidence of that, but if you think Eriksen was an angel in the way he left and should be welcomed back by us to save his career, you’re unbelievably blinkered.

Was a quality player for us and the stats back that up despite what some people want to convince themselves. However, I'm not that keen on bringing him back, mostly because I don't see where he fits in in our preferred system. His best position is as a 10 and while I'm sure he could do some sort of a job in a midfield 3, if that's a position we've identified as needing more bodies in, I don't really see why we'd shoehorn Eriksen in there rather than just buying someone who plays there naturally.
