Scores goal in draw Eriksen scored one goal to go with five shots (one on goal), 14 crosses (seven accurate) and nine corners in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Slovenia.

Impact Eriksen finished a quick throw-in play to give his team the lead in the 17th minute of this match. Other than the goal, he stood out with a game-high 14 crosses and seven chances created in a full-game appearance. His role as an attacker and lone set piece taker should be good enough for Eriksen to retain high potential even against difficult opposition.

Three crosses in loss Eriksen generated one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (three accurate) and two corners in Monday's 4-0 loss against Crystal Palace.

Impact Eriksen got the start in holding midfield and took a split of set pieces, as expected, while also working from open play. The entire offense struggled to find end product during Monday's loss, but Eriksen still produced a solid floor showing. The midfielder has now started three matches in a row after falling out of favor.

Goes unused recently Eriksen has gone unused off the bench in six of the club's past seven matches.

Impact Eriksen has appeared to have lost any role he held recently, as he has only played 31 minutes over the club's past seven contests, mainly going unused on the bench. However, this most likely is not due to his play but instead due to Casemiro's addition back into the team, as he returned in February following a 17-match absence due to hamstring issues, and that is when Eriksen was dropped from the squad. He will now mostly finish out the season in this role, getting minimal time on the field but still shaping out opportunities here and there off the bench, having not started since January 14.

Impact Eriksen did not miss a beat after being absent from the club's FA Cup match last Monday, having started in a league match against Tottenham, registering 58 minutes of play in the draw. His performance on the field was slightly underwhelming, gaining most of his contribution off of his three corner attempts, notching three crosses, two chances created and a tackle to go along with his corner kicks. He will most likely start against Wolves on Feb. 1, but that could be dependent on the health of Sofyan Amrabat and Mason Mount, as both are nearing a return. He will also have to fend off Kobbie Mainoo for the starting role, as, despite Eriksen's experience, Mainoo has come into United flying and has been a solid option in the defensive part of the midfield when he plays.

Eriksen most likely won't get the start Saturday but should still get some time off the bench after finally recovering from his injury, possibly working his way back into the starting XI in future matches.
