Christian Eriksen should be dropped by Tottenham for today's clash with Everton.

That's according to former Arsenal star Charlie Nicholas.

“Spurs did not play too badly at Liverpool, but the Tottenham issues are in defence and going forward," Nicholas told Sky Sports.

“Does he have the right balance? Does Dele Alli deserve to be in the team? Why is Lucas Moura not playing?

“Christian Eriksen is a passenger at the moment, so he doesn't belong in the team.

“There is too much confusion at Tottenham. The manager is not the problem but there is something within.

“They have not signed players on longer-term contracts, like Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen.

“Danny Rose is an accident waiting to happen, while Serge Aurier has been a disaster."
