Tottenham’s ideal XI following the January window

Christian Eriksen

Christian Eriksen had a slow start to the 2016/17 season, but he has certainly hit some form in recent weeks.

The Danish international contributed to just three goals in his first 11 league games of the campaign, but his fine strike against Chelsea in November has instigated an excellent run which has seen him net five goals and lay on six assists in 11 Spurs matches.

The 24-year-old has always had the quality to cause defences issues, with his ability in the wide areas and at set pieces particularly effective, and it seems that he is bringing greater consistency to his game in the last few weeks.

An Eriksen in form is a daunting prospect for many Premier League defenders.
