Nesbit, Eriksen didn't boss the game, but he showed enough to see he's for a touch of class about him. Always finding space and always looking to link play and pick a pass for someone to run onto.
When dembele or paulinho were close and started playing some close passes into him, we looked dangerous. When he came off we looked out of sorts and no one was getting close to adebayor.
He's not a winger, even though he was lined up on the wing, kept coming inside to link play. Even though we'd nominally lined up as a 433, it was more of a 4321, with Eriksen behind adebayor, and Lennon providing width on the right..
Still think we shouldn't have let holtby go, he would have been a straight swap for Eriksen...
