2022–23 EFL Cup as major honour

@Mattythewhite Your revert of the 2022–23 EFL Cup being added as a major honour for Eriksen stated "Did you even bother checking the source? He wasn't involved". Eriksen was not involved in the final through injury, but still appeared four times for Manchester United in their EFL Cup campaign, and so them winning the final certainly counts as a major honour for him.

@Profavi1: If you can provide an independent, reliable source that says he won the competition then fill your boots. At present, all we have is a match report that doesn't even mention Eriksen's name. Mattythewhite (talk) 18:33, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

@Mattythewhite: Are you serious? The career statistics wikitable for Eriksen, citing Soccerbase, literally indicates on the exact same page that he made four appearances in the 2022–23 EFL Cup for Manchester United, even scoring a goal against Burnley. Thus, a match report for Manchester United winning the final (even in Eriksen's absence) should be sufficient additional evidence for Eriksen winning the 2022–23 EFL Cup with Manchester United!

If that isn't sufficient for you, I'll add the Soccerbase citation to the 'Honours' section in addition to the match report of the final. It should not subsequently be removed. Profavi1 (talk) 19:18, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

@Profavi1: Appearing in an earlier round of the competition isn't, in itself, sufficient in establishing that a player should be credited with an honour. But I'm not going to revert, as you've clearly made your mind up that it is must be included ("It should not subsequently be removed"). I appreciate you've at least made some sort of effort to address the sourcing, when many editors think a match report that doesn't even mention the name of the player in question is sufficient.

@Mattythewhite: I appreciate that, but I think in this case it's intuitive to suggest that a current Manchester United squad member, who appeared in every match prior to his injury and only missed the final through said injury, is credited with the trophy as an honour - it seems like pedantry to omit it entirely on the basis of a lack of an entire article specifically crediting Eriksen with a medal.

Wrexham Interest (2025)

As per mainstream media, Wrexham have approached the player with an offer and initial statement from the player was that he wishes to continue his career in the topflight effectively ruling himself out of signing for Wrexham. However, many people are pre-emptive editing this article to say he has signed and plays for Wrexham FC, as of 26/07/2025 this is not true and no sources support this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swans07 (talk • contribs) 23:55, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Recent removal

Hello! Just wanted to bring attention to a recent removal of part of the Stye of Play section, in case there are editors who want to discuss it. OrdinaryOtter (talk) 05:43, 25 April 2026 (UTC)
