5 players Tottenham cannot do without

#2 Christian Eriksen

Eriksen is Tottenham's most creative man on the pitch

Sharing the top spot with Dele Alli on Tottenham's assists chart, Eriksen is beyond any doubt the most creative player in the squad. In 44 appearances throughout all competitions, the Danish international has had a hand in 13 goals and scored 14 times.

The Spurs manager has lauded heaps of praises on his creative midfielder this season. Eriksen has often been the savior of the team, coming to the rescue whenever his team struggles to find the net.

Starting his senior career as an Ajax player, Eriksen joined the Premier League side in 2013. After consistent hard work over the few seasons, he has finally made it into PFA Team of the Year this season alongside Harry Kane and Jan Vertonghen.

If not for his creativity, it will be hard to imagine how Tottenham's midfield could have dominated so many games. He has been praised for his movement on the pitch as he gets into great positions to receive the ball and find the rest of his team-mates.

The set-piece specialist often scores directly from free-kicks and his corner kicks are delivered accurately to the heart of the penalty box for his team-mates to get the ball in.
