Just saw a clip from Talksport, where Danny Murphy and Simon Jordan said Eriksen would be a squad player at best for United, and would effectively not improve them because he would simply be a bench player, with Bruno ahead of him in the pecking order.
I was pretty gobsmacked, almost thinking they were both incredibly narrow minded. I admit to not being an expert on the ability of Eriksen, but have always seen he has been well regarded and played well when I have watched him. I'm sure Spurs and Brentford fans would be able to discuss his abilities better. Man City have DeBruyne, but I never hear pundits saying that Gundogan and B. Silva do not make City a better team (even if they don't play every week). City also have the likes of Mahrez and Grealish, who although play wide, would be more creative midfielders than pacey wingers.
Utd have lost the likes of Pogba, Lingard and Mata (thankfully). Yet, Murphy and Jordan feel that Utd only need one creative midfielder in their entire squad, despite Bruno's poor form last season. Unless they feel, with their great managerial brains, than De Hag should simply resort to playing ultra defensive football until Man Utd buy themselves out of trouble and buy star players in all positions. That tends to work well...
