No love here? Thought he was outstanding. Feel like when he’s on song he links us together.

We need to target midfielders with his passing ability. Surround him with other ballers who can play 1 touch football and watch us win games.

He's massively important in these Europa League games where it isn't as frantic as the PL... his class oozes through.
 
Man Utd 0:2 Crystal Palace New
Decent cameo again yesterday, but he came on way too late to really make a difference.

Not quite, he did let a CP player breeze past him for 2-0, deciding instead to hang around as the fourth security option on the guy making the through pass. If he just tracked that run like a CM should, he could at least have been there to get shrugged of.
 
Seriously? I just went and watched the replay again. Zirkzee makes a bad pass to set up the situation. Ugarte is then unable to stop the Palace player, shying away from a tackle or to stop his run, probably due to his yellow card. Dalot is taking over from Ugarte but does not really attack the situation, watching from a couple of yards instead of doing something. Meanwhile Yoro is out of position. He doesn´t see the Palace player running in behind him to receive the through ball. Eriksen even points it out to Yoro. Harry sees what is happening, but is too slow to do anything about it. All the while Bruno is letting the goal scorer run deep without a chase. Eriksen is not even close to the situation, nor is it his man at any point. Hard to see his fault here. There was a whole chain of mistakes though.

Ugarte was not on the pitch.
 
My mistake. It was Garnacho and not Ugarte. But that is not the point. Some users are following agendas against players they do not like, and fans should not do that.
 
I still think we're a better team when he's in it. Him and Amad are our most intelligent players.
 
Eriksen expected to retire this Summer

I have nothing but respect for him. Dude almost died and still continued to play at the top level. Came to us, had at least one amazing season.

Clearly doesn't have the legs to be a starter, anymore, but always a top professional, always giving his best.

RESPECT
So, to be fair, this is just an interview with a TV-pundit, who thinks Eriksen will retire.

Really the most nothing-news I've read in a while.
 
No disrespect but I hope he does retire. He is 32 but looks 10 years older. Unfortunately I think he does not have the physical ability to compete at the top level anymore.

Yes, we should use him more when he is showing good form. A level above when it comes to distribution. He lacks pace and strength but one of the two number 10 positions should work.

Regularly scheduled public service announcement: all transfer and retirement rumors are RUMORS until and unless they happen. Nobody said it was iron-clad fact

Main point was to show respect and love for Eriksen. Retires or not, it is clear he is not in plans for us after Summer so will be leaving one way or another
