On Holiday Christian Eriksen

[swr22]

I have it on good authority from a well-placed source that we’ll be looking into signing him. I give our chances 93%.

I hope we keep him fingers crossed

 

[TOXIC BEE]

Surely this is outgoing speculation rather than incoming? Out of contract or not he’s still ours to lose

This has been stated many times on his own thread to be fair

Schroedinger’s Eriksen. He is both outgoing speculation and incoming at the same time!

 

[swr22]

This has been stated many times on his own thread to be fair

I wasn’t being entirely serious: my well-placed source is what Thomas Frank said on the telly!
We just needed a thread in the transfer window section to discuss the transfer rather than his play

Ok just figured we have a thread already so if he leaves it can be moved to the former Bees area

Ahh jeez.

 

[Invipai]

It would be weird if we weren't trying to sign him!

 

[Old B]

Oh ffs - another thread!

 

[Bee Dane]

Everyday has a new Eriksen romour in the danish press: Ajax, Man U, Newcastle, Arsenal, Barca, Spurs and Bees.
The strongest romours among all the experts are Brentford and Spurs.
He feels vamiliar both places. In Brentford he will be the star and get a lot of matchtime, and he enjoys playing here. Spurs is an old love, and he will propably play European.
Feels like 60-40 in favour of Spurs.

 

[BEEcool]

Given that he’s already our player and it’s a case of whether he signs a contract extension or not, shouldn’t this be an ‘outgoing speculation’ thread rather than a ‘strong rumour’ one?

Unless he becomes a free agent and then decides to go back, where it would go from outcoming to incoming?

 

[BEEcool]

As it stands today, he’s under contract with us though?

 

[swr22]

Sure, but no one is going to sign him from us when he is still under contract with us.
I suppose, to be really rigid about definitions, contract extensions would be discussed in Team and Player talk and people signing our former players would be in 'Former Players'. But, considering this forum is looking at who we might sign in the summer, it would be weird not to include CE

 

[StevieSteve]

As it stands today, he’s under contract with us though?

But when the window opens he won't be.

 

[BEEcool]

But when the window opens he won't be.

It's not open yet though.

 

[Les Beeavinu]

It's not open yet though.

And even then, he'll be under contract until the end of June I suspect.

 

[RAF_Patto]

Slow day in the office for some of you?

 

[HaylingBee74]

Schroedinger’s Eriksen. He is both outgoing speculation and incoming at the same time!

I am not overly happy about CE & Schroedinger being compared.

 

[grepo]

I am not overly happy about CE & Schroedinger being compared.

Occupying multiple places at the same time sounds like a reasonable analogy for how he appears to play so brilliantly.

 

[grepo]

I am not overly happy about CE & Schroedinger being compared.

...but I see what you mean.

 

[swr22]

...but I see what you mean.

Yup. So do I in retrospect. Obviously not intended to make light of what he went through.

 

[grepo]

Clever and profound comment, however, for the GPG.

 

[swr22]

'Clever and profound' but also horribly unthoughtful and indelicate. The classic GPG trade-off, I guess.....

 

[BURFORD BEE]

Or thoughtless depending on how you look at it

 

[Freebee]

It's fine to compare CE with Schroedinger he was fine it was his cat everyone was concerned about

 

[Wouldbee]

It’s currently tikka masala I’d say

I thought that he left because they're sh*t?

 

[Brentford77]

I was reliably informed that that was the case by about 5,000 people in the West stand last weekend…

The dead cat or the live cat?

 

[Vid]

Interesting listening to the chat at UWL that when Thomas rang Eriksen he said " Hello mate I was just going to give you a bell about playing for Brentford " but in Danish.

 

[beenthere]

The dead cat or the live cat?

Therein lays the entire question

 

[filmyfan]

Thread title changed ?!!!

Ah, the first "f***ing with our heads" of the window.

Schroedinger…didn’t he play for Salzburg as a box to box midfielder…

 

[WARFIELD BEE]

All but signed?
Are we really that close?

 

[Mr Cynical]

Ah, the first "f***ing with our heads" of the window.

Get your money on Spurs straight away!

 

[Banana]

Until he's linked with another club he's staying.

Not that encouraging to rate all but signed.

 

[Banana]

Not that encouraging to rate all but signed.

Don't panic. Keep the faith. And watch out for "NOT CLOSING DOWN" sign at Ole & Steen, Richmond.

 

[LostBee]

Banana will hang from Kew Bridge if he's wrong here.

 

[vcmazz]

I've read on Facebook that he wants to move back to North London. Hendon need someone to take penalties and are in for him. You read it here first.

 

[Banana]

Easy. It will be Phil Giles and Pontus!

 

[TOXIC BEE]

Is the GPG rating “All but signed” still the case?

I don't think anyone knows more than anyone else. For once!

We are letting him meet the board?
