Paul Scholes, a former playmaker for Manchester United, has cited Christian Eriksen as his favorite player on the current team.

Scholes believes that one of the biggest problems United has been having has been resolved with the additions of Eriksen and Casemiro.

Erik Eriksen, a free agent after a brief stint with Brentford, was one of six newcomers in Erik ten Hag's first window.

And the international player from Denmark has already made an impact on the United team, contributing significantly to their recent comeback.

Speaking on Gary Neville’s Overlap YouTube channel, Scholes said: “Intelligence — clever players with a brain."

[Eriksen] is a perfect example of a player who plays with intelligence.

“He’s a clever player; he knows where he is on the pitch and where others are on the pitch.”
