That assist propelled the 27-year-old into elite company and meant he became just the second player to create 10 or more Premier League goals in four successive seasons, after former Manchester United midfielder David Beckham did the same between 1997 and 2001.

The ex-England captain was famed for his dead-ball prowess and excellent passing, which helped him win six league titles, before leaving Old Trafford for Real Madrid in 2003.
But the question that remains to be answered, is whether Eriksen will do likewise and move to the Spanish capital at the end of the season?
