Registers six crosses Eriksen had one shot (zero on goal), six crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 3-0 loss to Manchester City.

Impact Eriksen was decent in Sunday's defeat, whipping in a team-high of six crosses while also notching one shot and a chance created. The Danish midfielder was given his first start in five matches on Sunday, as United set up a bit more defensively, leaving Mason Mount on the bench. Eriksen will most likely return to the bench for the club's next match, especially with Casemiro possibly returning from injury.

Assists in game-winning goal Eriksen assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 1-0 win over FC Copenhagen.

Impact Eriksen came close to scoring in the second half only to be denied by Kamil Grabara, but the Denmark international still made his presence felt since he delivered the cross that led to Harry Maguire's goal midway through the second half. Eriksen is not the dominant fantasy player he was during his Tottenham days since he's now playing in a deeper role, but he should be a good source for crosses, passing stats and a few assists here and there.

Misses Cup win Eriksen was not in the squad for Tuesday's Cup match but is expected to be available going forward, according to manager Erik ten Hag.

Impact Eriksen had started four-straight matches prior to staying on the bench for the entire game against Burnley over the weekend. While he has a goal and assist, Eriksen hasn't had the greatest start to the campaign and it's a wonder if he'll be eventually moved to more of a bench role. Sofyan Amrabat is now an option and Mason Mount is healthy again, which could see Eriksen play his bench role from earlier in the season.

Eriksen has a total of four chances created, all within the last two games and delivered his first accurate cross of the season.

Impact Eriksen opened up the scoring for United in Saturday's match after executing a perfect glancing touch for a goal. The Danish midfielder started the comeback for United with his goal and played a decent 90 minutes against Forest, contributing two chances created, four crosses and one shot from his holding midfield position. Eriksen was given the start today with Mason Mount (hamstring) still out injured, but should be expected to only be a rotational starter once Mount returns.

Impact Eriksen had spent the bulk of his career playing as an attacking midfielder, but Erik ten Hag transformed him into a central midfielder, and he had some flashes of brilliance in a deeper role, though his goalscoring figures are still low compared to what he used to do in his Tottenham days. The eight assists were his best mark since the 2015-16 campaign, however, and he should remain a starter in 2023-24 even if the Red Devils sign another central midfielder in the summer.

Impact Eriksen will likely need at least a week of full training to get back his fitness, but it's a good sign that he'll be ready soon. He's been out since the end of January and if all goes where, there's a slight chance he could be an option as soon as the first leg in Europa League against Sevilla. Of course, a lot of it will depend on his reaction following the next couple training sessions.

Impact It sounds like Eriksen's timeline to return has been pushed back to three months after originally being given a four-month one. He's been out since late January, so if it truly is three months, he could be back by the beginning of April. It's a nice boost for Eriksen, though he still has a long way to go in recovery and then he'll need to work back to full fitness.
