Arsenal 2-2 Tottenham: 5 Talking Points as Unai Emery and Mauricio Pochettino's side share spoils

#2 Pochettino needs to start Christian Eriksen more often

Christian Eriksen was the best player on the pitch today. The Danish International was enjoying the reserved space in the midfield department to feed the forwards with constant deliveries.

Not only does he help Spurs with creativity, but he can score goals to notch up his tally. He likes to get into the box more often and did exactly the same to open the scoring in the first half. Without his presence, Spurs were struggling to break down Aston Villa in the opening weekend of this season.

In the last twenty minutes of that game, Eriksen created six chances, which was more than any other player on the pitch. There is a contract standoff from the player’s part, but Pochettino needs to play him more often to achieve the main targets for this season. Forwards Heung Min Son and Harry Kane will be benefitted only if he starts for the Champions League finalists more often.
