You think Barca will play him further up the pitch then or have him running from deep, possibly from CB? 

I'm not sure.

 

He'd be a nailed-on midfielder for any other club in the world, but depending on their manager I can just about imagine someone trying to repeat what they did with Mascherano and playing him deeper. He's played at centre back a fair few games for Ajax as well, so it's not a foreign position to him.

 

However, I have to admit I'd be a bit disappointed to see that. I'd put him at the base of their midfield and just watch him go. Maybe in a 4-2-3-1 alongside Busquets, even. Just get him the ball as much as possible and let him make things happen, sort of like what Sarri is doing with Jorginho at Chelsea. He absolutely oozes class on the ball, one of those players who always seems to have more space/time than everyone else.

Not much chance we would get him, certainly not in January but Eriksens contract is up at the end of next season. He is only on 70k a week apparently as well. Maybe a possibility if Spurs miss out on the champions league. I'd love him here. 

We watched him for at least a full season at Ajax and then decided he wasn't good enough. Still freaks my nut out to this day. Our Eredivisie scouts are wank.
