da marjack bet: Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen produced another awful performance in his side’s 3-0 defeat against Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday, and it’s got to the point now where the contract rebel’s exit can’t come soon enough.
Having found himself on the substitutes’ bench for the 7-2 horror show against Bayern Munich during the week, the Denmark international was back in the starting XI at the Amex, but he – like the majority of his teammates – ultimately failed to show up as Spurs fell 13 points behind Premier League leaders Liverpool despite only being eight games into the season.
It isn’t the first time the 27-year-old has disappointed in recent weeks either, picking up a measly 3/10 rating from Football London for his display on the road against Olympiacos.
He actually fared even worse in the same publication at the weekend, with a 2/10 score being accompanied by the verdict that this was “possibly his worst performance in a Spurs shirt”.
Not exactly a glowing endorsement of him, and it’s hard to argue when you look at some of the attacking midfielder’s statistics against Graham Potter’s men.
According to SofaScore, he lost possession on 19 occasions, while he failed to produce a single accurate cross from the four he attempted – perhaps part of the reason why the visitors failed to get on the score-sheet.
In addition, he was dribbled past by an opposition player on one occasion and failed to make a key pass against the Seagulls.
Marca reported recently that Eriksen has rejected every contract he has been offered by Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy as he waits on a proposal from Real Madrid, and that he has no intention of committing his future to the north London club.
While he has clearly been an important player throughout the last few years for Spurs, scoring 67 goals and providing a further 87 assists in 288 matches in all competitions according to Transfermarkt, he is anything but right now.
On this evidence the quicker his exit comes around the better, for everyone involved.
