JAMIE REDKNAPP: Christian Eriksen should stay at Brentford... he's writing a new chapter

  /  autty

Could Christian Eriksen do a job in Tottenham's midfield? Sure, he's talented enough to improve plenty of teams towards the top of the Premier League. But I hope he stays at Brentford.

He's writing a new chapter with a lovely club and it would be nice to see him continue this footballing fairytale.

I'm sure you remember where you were when 'it' happened. I was driving home and listening to the commentary of Denmark against Finland. I couldn't believe it.

I thought I'd just heard that Eriksen had died at the age of 29 and the Denmark players were forming a barrier around his body to give the medical staff the privacy they needed. But Eriksen survived.

Not only that, he returned to professional football. Not only that, the Premier League. Not only that, he's winning games for Brentford, as he did at Chelsea on Saturday.

And I'd like to see that continue. It's such an inspirational story.

Eriksen may have his pick of clubs when he's a free agent in the summer but he seems happy at Brentford and I'd like to see him thrive there.
