You watch Silva, and he almost never gives the ball away. He is always looking, thinking, making the right calls. Christian Eriksen Read Quote

I had a lot of dealings with Bergkamp. I started with the under-17s at Ajax, and he was the assistant coach. Once or twice a week, we had individual one-to-one training sessions. You just watched Bergkamp. When you see him in training, he had skills that a guy just shouldn’t be allowed to have. Christian Eriksen Read Quote
During the game, you don’t really notice how many guys have touched the ball because you’re just focusing on where you need to be. Christian Eriksen Read Quote
I played for the first time when I was three. My neighbour was six, and I went to train with him. But I don’t have many football memories from when I was young. Christian Eriksen Read Quote
Ajax have a tradition of good football and play 4-3-3, which suits me. They also spend lots of money on youth players with the aim of putting them in the first team. Christian Eriksen Read Quote
It was a bit of a shock playing against Millwall. I knew the reputation of English football was tough, but my first thoughts when we started were, ‘Wow, this is different to Denmark.’ They kicked a little more and made crazy tackles, but I wasn’t injured when I returned to Denmark, so I guess I did OK.
