Wouldn't say Eriksen's been any worse than the rest of the attacking line up.

Probably true, but for him it just seems more in contrast with last season, none of the others set things alight last season either, but Eriksen seems to have dropped off from where he was?

chadli has been a whole level above eriksen so far this season.

infact he has probably been our best player.

Chadli has been the best attacking player easily. Lamela has not been outstanding or anything but still has 6 assists to his name which is more than can be said for the other useless wingers we have at the club ( Townsend and Lennon) who wouldn't know an assist if it come up and hit them in the face. Kane for me has more than deserved a starting spot especially after how poor Adebayor has been. Soldado dosent seem to be favoured does he and clearly works better partnering a striker rather than on his own. Eriksen has been very poor that I agree but we all know his quality. He certainly should be dropped if he continues his poor form.

Chadli scored goals but don't think he's been excellent by any means! The goals just mean he's Undroppable ATM. Also much better up top!

Lamela & Eriksen are about at the same level for me.. Yes Lamela has 6 assist which is good but 2 against AEL and 1 against Forest which Eriksen was rested for and the one vs arsenal owes a lot to Eriksen!

Personally I think attacking wise we aren't very good at all and everyone needs to step up a level or two!

Adebayor needs to be dropped ASAP

I do think Chadli's goals have made his performances seem better than they are. His goals are much welcome of course, as noone else appears capable of scoring, however I would like to see him do more.

Eriksen and Lamela have looked a bit average imo.

I'm concerned about us at home to Southampton as they are a well organised side who I think we may struggle to break down. In fact, I'm more comfortable watching us play away from home at the minute.

At home the crowd make our team very edgy and they start to force the play leading to miss passes which annoys the fans even more creating an even more edgy atmosphere!

Away from him we seem to play with a bit more freedom imo!

Good thing is southampton will be looking to attack us so they will be space to attack them.

Need to keep our defence on top form again like Saturday

Eriksen has best shooting (86%) & passing (82%) accuracy in the squad so far this season.

Eriksen is a riddle wrapped up in a mystery inside an enigma at the moment. He's doing just enough to warrant his place in the team but not enough to stand out. You then get Adebayor who isn't doing enough and doesn't warrant automatic selection but gets it. Not saying it is the case but maybe Eriksen (and a few others) are fed up with carrying worthless lumps who tickover while they work and play their socks off.

Don,

( Townsend and Lennon) who wouldn't know an assist if it come up and hit them in the face.

==================

Townsend got the assist for the all important second goal against Forest just 4 days ago.
