Spurs ace Eriksen: New stadium delays out of players' hands

Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen says the club's new stadium build is out of the players' hands.

Tottenham's players - along with the rest of the Premier League - are awaiting news on when they will finally get to play at their new stadium in north London.

"We can't do anything, we can't help build it," Eriksen said. "We could but I don't think it would speed up the process. We know as little as everyone else really.

"We don't really know what's going on but hopefully it will be done soon enough and we can play there because it will be amazing. It's an amazing build which is going to take time.

"It's disappointing and we should have a date. The Spurs management and (Daniel) Levy won't be too happy that it's happened but you can't do anything about it.

"Hopefully we can speed up the process and get it done as soon as possible.

"It has to be in good shape when we get in and if it takes a little bit longer then it takes a little bit longer. Wembley is our second home though."
