# 2 Christian Eriksen
Christian Eriksen has been a vital player in the midfield for the Spurs as he is a crucial link that binds the entire midfield. He has looked quite reliable and can play as a second striker too. The 26-year-old has been quite good during counter attacks and looks sharp while controlling the ball inside the box.
His unorthodox moves can outclass the best defenses and have been a decent operator on both sides of the flanks. Christian Eriksen has been spot on during set pieces and has exhibited his goal-scoring prowess when needed.
Christian Eriksen netted 10 goals in 30 Premier League games in the last season with 11 assists to his name. In the 2018-19 season too, Christian Eriksen could play a big role for the Spurs. Pochettino was quoted as saying that the Danish international will surely be a key figure in Tottenham’s midfield department.
