I miss him in the squad
Andy Carroll still plays for Liverpool it seems.I miss him in the squad
7-10?It would've been 10 if he played, let's be honest.
Nah he has brains and can control the tempo. We only had headless chicken running around yesterdayIt would've been 10 if he played, let's be honest.
No.It would've been 10 if he played, let's be honest.
Unpopular opinion but yeah I get the point that you're making. Away at Anfield isn't a good game for him, at least not as a CM.It would've been 10 if he played, let's be honest.
This was a huge problem for us when we lost our heads especially. We couldn't keep the ball for more then 1-2 passes in anyway or form.I don't get it, when people are arguing, that Eriksen is a problem against strong opposition. Just look at his statistics this season against top 6 teams. Yes. He can't tackle, but he rarely loses the ball in dangerous players, and that was the big issue yesterday. It would never be have been 7 or 10 with Eriksen at CM. Why do you think ETH always plays him against top opposition? Klopp said in the build up to the match, that Eriksen missing out was the big issue for him. He knew what he was talking about. When Liverpool presses as high as they did yesterday, they leave acres of open space at the back. You simply can't do that with Eriksen in the center. He will find those spaces and cut their defense open like a can of tuna. Enter Rashford, and goodnight Scousers. Arsenal and Liverpool experienced exactly that at Old Trafford. We need someone like him ASAP. Bruno is the only one left in the squad, who can play Eriksen-passes, but he takes way to many risks to play CM. Get well Christian.
The fact that he went unpunished for actually injuring a player on purpose really says something about the state of the FA. Especially when you then consider how they treated Casemiro.Here's the obligatory feck Andy carrol.
Ok Pierce.He's badly missed. He's streets ahead of Fred or Sabitzer as Casemiros partner.
After the international break at the earliest was the word from EtH a week ago.When is he back ? I always hoped the initial time out estimated was exaggerated but it’s been a while now.
Fingers crossed he’s on track. Will be a big plus if so.After the international break at the earliest was the word from EtH a week ago.
That's big news. Just need to get through the Fulham game, and we will hopefully have midfield options of Eriksen, Fred, Sabitzer and McTominay, while Casemiro is out.
We really need him. Our build-up is slow as feck without him and Casemiro and the biggest reason for me is the fact that all the other three alternatives hind behind opponents and make life difficult for our CBs. Even young Robbie has more courage and shows himself for the ball more than McTominay, Sabitzer and Fred.Will be great to have him back, assumed he wouldn't be back till Casemiro was back from his ban but may be back sooner than that
The problem is that the next 3 games Casemiro misses are stacked over 6 days. So could still be tight for Eriksen to be back.Will be great to have him back, assumed he wouldn't be back till Casemiro was back from his ban but may be back sooner than that
Fantastic stuff. A big boost post international games to have him available. Will make a difference in that final period of games.

Think his first grass session was today so I doubt he'll feature at Newcastle. At best, he'd be at the bench.Tweet

Haven't followed much of United related news lately but this means he'll be available as early as Newcastle game? If so, great.
Very promising news!looks like his return is very close!

Ah okay, thanks. Still it means he could be starting games as early as when we play vs Everton/Sevilla which is still great.Think his first grass session was today so I doubt he'll feature at Newcastle. At best, he'd be at the bench.

I'd say those games are the earliest I'd expect to see him in the squad. Probably as a sub at first. I'd be surprised to see him in the Newcastle or Brentford game, or rushed back as a starter.Ah okay, thanks.

"Christian Eriksen is back on the pitch, not yet in the team training but I expect him in the coming week, [or] weeks, back in team training so will be available for games again.”
