He has a defibrillator the size of a matchbox inserted in his chest, but it’s his brain which makes him one of the best players in the world, and why Graham Arnold will be having cold sweats trying to limit his impact in the final Group D game in Qatar on Thursday morning .
Eriksen only returned to the professional game with Brentford in January, helping the Bees avoid relegation from the Premier League. An analysis of Eriksen’s two World Cup games so far shows a preference for passes towards the right side of the field , but it’s his 360-degree ability which causes problems for defences.
“But what Denmark try to do is arrange themselves in a way to give him that time and space. They’ll make a lot of runs which are specifically for him to have time and space to play.” Eriksen is also Denmark’s set-piece specialist and provided the delivery for their only goal of the World Cup, an Andreas Christensen header from a corner against France.
Says McKay: “He moves into different positions freely and probably has that free rein in the Denmark team.”Does he keep the faith with Riley McGree in midfield, or does he go with the fit-again Ajdin Hrustic? Regardless, their role will be to ensure Eriksen doesn’t retreat into areas where he can dictate the game with his face to goal, and to help Irvine and Mooy win the midfield arm wrestle.“For us to stop him we need to keep our composure around him,” McKay says.
