da marjack bet: EA Sports have announced their eight-man shortlist for December’s Player of the Month, and one of the Premier League stars in contention is Tottenham Hotspur’s Christian Eriksen.
da dobrowin: The Danish international was in fantastic form ahead of the new year but the below data courtesy EA Sports shows how incredible he truly was.
Indeed, the attacking midfielder registered the most shots of any player in the division (30), ranked joint-second for goals scored (4), joint-second for created chances (21) and joint-fourth for assists (2).
In addition to completing a staggering 193 passes in the opposition half, Spurs fans might be most impressed by the fact three of Eriksen’s four goals were scored with his weaker foot.
Will those stunning statistics be enough for the 24-year-old to clinch the award? Well, he’s up against some serious competition, namely Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Alexis Sanchez, Paul Pogba, Diego Costa, Dele Alli, Adam Lallana and Gary Cahill, but Eriksen surely stands as good a chance as any.
