Christian Eriksen is no big deal


You know it's a slow news day when websites start claiming Tottenham are 'boosted' or 'relieved' because Christian Eriksen hasn't been selected for the Danish Under-23 team for the Olympics.

They seem oblivious to the fact that Eriksen would have to ask Tottenham and Tottenham would have to give permission for him to be picked. Those discussions have undoubtedly taken place and Tottenham have undoubtedly said no they wouldn't release him, thus he hasn't been picked.

Tottenham, on the other hand, did give permission for Son Heung-min to be picked by South Korea and he will be going to the Olympics and therefore misses the first two games of the season.

Sorry guys but it isn't the big deal you're making it out to be.
