'Unrecognisable' Eriksen singled out for sloppy performance as Spurs surrender two-goal lead in Greece

The Danish playmaker, subject to transfer speculation over the summer, had a night to forget as the London side struggled on the continent

Former Tottenham man Jermaine Jenas took aim at Christian Eriksen's performance against Olympiacos on Wednesday night, with the Dane looking "unrecognisable" as Spurs surrendered a two-goal lead in their Champions League group stage opener.

Harry Kane dispatched a first-half penalty to give Mauricio Pochettino's side the lead in Greece before a Lucas Moura strike put the visitors in the driving seat at the Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium.

Daniel Podence got the hosts back in the game before the break, however, before Mathieu Valbuena – who provided the assist for the first goal – fired home from the spot in the second half to send Spurs back to London with a solitary point.
