The Dane has encouraged his team-mates to approach their upcoming clash at Old Trafford without fear and admits he is enjoying the more positive style of play under Tim Sherwood
Tottenham must play without fear if they are to beat Manchester United at Old Trafford on New Year's Day, according to playmaker Christian Eriksen.

Spurs struggled for goals under Andre Villas-Boas this season, scoring just 15 times in 16 league games under the Portuguese, but have netted seven in three matches since Tim Sherwood took the reins.

With a visit to the site of last season's famous 3-2 victory - their first over United since 1989 - looming on Wednesday, Eriksen insists they have no reason not to maintain their positive mindset.

"I'd like us to go there and play like we did [against Stoke]," he told reporters. "We'll still get the space and just need to take our chances.

"United are a better team than Stoke and we have respect for them, but we have to be on our toes and go there and play a good game."
