I think the Jensen synergy is interesting as MJ often comes on in Eriksen’s place for Denmark (and indeed did in that game v Finland at the Euros). So playing and training together daily between now and the WC may well appeal to both, improve both players’ WC selection chances and improve MJ as a player for us.
One of the things Eriksen did "pick-up" on in Contes Inter system, was in the defensive phase. He definitely added to that trade from his Inter adventure.Interesting article by James Gheerbrant in The Times:
Christian Eriksen: Which Premier League club would be the best home for the midfielder?
What kind of player is Eriksen now?The actual answer is that we don’t know: Christian Eriksen hasn’t played for seven months, and although there are examples of
Here’s how we compare in his opinion (he watches us regularly) vs. three others allegedly in the frame: Brighton, Newcastle and Wolves.
How would he fit at Brentford?
Brentford have offered Eriksen a six-month contract, and one can certainly see what he could add to Thomas Frank’s team. Brentford are a strong, organised, well-coached side but they lack guile and imagination — from open play, at least. Their average of 6.05 open-play chances created per game is the second-lowest in the league, and with the exception of Mathias Jensen, the midfield offers industry but scant creativity. Signing Eriksen would redress this and Brentford could offer him a platform not dissimilar to the one he enjoyed under Conte — they already set up in a 3-5-2 and Eriksen would play alongside two much more diligent midfielders, probably Christian Norgaard and Vitaly Janelt. Brentford are one of the most innovative and effective teams in the league at set pieces, and one could certainly see Eriksen’s delivery adding dead-ball value: between the start of the 2015-16 season and his departure, no player in the Premier League created more chances from set plays than Eriksen. Culturally, he would fit in well in a squad which has several Danish players, including Norgaard and Jensen. The question is whether Brentford could accommodate Eriksen in the defensive phase. They are one of the more active pressing teams in the league, allowing 12.3 passes per defensive action. But Eriksen’s quality in attack makes him a gamble worth taking.
Hard to disagree with most of it except the Conte comment. If TF is planning on using him exactly like Conte did then it would be a waste (of player and money). He sat extremely deep - at times even deeper than their true dm Brozovic and he was mostly involved from his own half - setting up transition play. I guess it worked at Inter but he needs to be further forward imo. As an atticking cmInteresting article by James Gheerbrant in The Times:

He definitely learned how to work in the defensive unit. But he did a lot of defensive work and pressing under Poch aswell. Just further forward or out wide. It will never be his strongest trade though
If was in any box then it would be Phil GIles's, and it would be CE's agent. Keep an eye out and get the pics on here afterwards
I'll keep an eye out
He could be at the game tonight - Anyone in the South stand need to keep an eye out
I'll take a look...If was in any box then it would be Phil GIles's, and it would be CE's agent. Keep an eye out and get the pics on here afterwards
Not sure I agree with that. I think he was very good (and under rated) at Spurs for his defensive work. Pochettino did not pick players that didn't work hard to win the ball back.
Agree with this. My spurs supporting mate says he was the hardest-working creative player he's ever seen.
Just double checking your mate isnt called Blind Dave
I agree with you - Let me try and re-phrase, more grit/aggression & tackling was added to his defensive work, and the defensive part of his playing role under Conte was bigger than the defensive duties he had under Porch.

In the meantime we have Newcastle must beat Brentford to Christian Eriksen signing - opinionIs this rumour close to real? Didn't really take this original suggestion post much serious tbh : ) But recent 2 days the rumour has been mentioned everywhere.
Eriksen offered six-month deal to make remarkable Premier League return
Former Tottenham attacking midfielder Christian Eriksen has been presented with the chance to return to the Premier League two years on from his transfer to Inter MilanBrentford considering Eriksen move
Brentford speak to Christian Eriksen about the possibility of signing the Denmark midfielder.
Eriksen’s head transplanted on Mads’ body? I don’t want to see that, thank you very muchWho want to see this?
sportwitness.co.uk
His head's not in the right place...
Is Mads leaving then?Who want to see this?
We don't have to worry about any potential heart condision thoughEriksen’s head transplanted on Mads’ body? I don’t want to see that, thank you very much
I'm in N123 so consider it done, will report back
Personally believe this to be a long shot myself, but this private 'luxury-charter' aircraft has just arrived at Biggin Hill, route unlisted. The company appears to be registered in Germany
Hmm, this could be a way to get another edge though? Jensen's head on Onyeka's body?? Might look a bit weird but would combine flair and athleticism nicely.. one to look at Phil Giles I think!!Eriksen’s head transplanted on Mads’ body? I don’t want to see that, thank you very much
Loved the bit: "Newcastle are a much bigger club than Brentford and are more established in the Premier League."Just read that ‘article’ - basically says CE should sign for Newcastle just because it’s Newcastle
Big fanfare online and we only find out afterwards when we get mobile coverage back
Did a quick scan on Luton too. This is scheduled but then again, doubtful
Just his head
He still lives in Milano though.
