I’m super biased here obviously, but I don’t understand why Eriksen is not starting for United currently. I feel like in a majority of their games, the midfield is just not working and there’s little control of games that they should dominate. Then Eriksen comes on in the 2nd half and it nearly always improves. I know he can’t play 90 minutes in the Prem, but why not give him 60 instead of 30-45 minutes?
