He even ran in and intercepted the ball, assisting Kane for his 2nd goal.
But whatever, would be better if he had waited and made a cracking two-foot tackle instead, beast-style.
I said Eriksen would play better with Alli next to him. West Ham is a classic example of more power up the spine helps us. I said before the game we would win 3-1.
In that instance though you should mention full disclosure: Tomkins passed it directly to Eriksen.
Don't get too carried away with the torch burning. After all, I was crossing my fingers either Alli or Dembele were played next to Eriksen with Kane and it all worked out.
Before the game I praised Eriksens set pieces, he got an assist.
Unless you can prove Eriksen would have done worse centrally in the 3, there really is not anything for me to cringe about. It's pretty weird. If I claim Alli would make a great AM, and he scores when played as a DM: People bring it up to push it in my face. haha.
What is your post really saying? That I was right to think Eriksen is creative?
I don't think I'm alone thinking Eriksen needs to be moved more central/closer to the goal because his shooting is so sweet. He needs more goals in open play IMO, and having him do less tackling and playing him more central will help him and everyone around him.
