Upon receiving the award, Eriksen thanked the Tottenham fans for their support. He wrote on Instagram: 'A big thank you to everyone who voted me as their player of the year for the second time! It has truly been an amazing year! Still 2 games to finish off even stronger.'  

Pochettino's side were pipped to the Premier League title by Chelsea. But they have already secured qualification for the Champions League and the Denmark international has formed a formidable partnership with the likes of Alli and Kane.

Between them, the three forward players have scored 61 Premier League goals, while Eriksen picked up his 21st assist of the season in Sunday's 2-1 victory over Manchester United – the last ever match at White Hart Lane

Kane scored Spurs' final goal at the historic stadium to ensure Spurs went a whole season unbeaten at home for the first time in 52 years. The win was their 14th in a row at the Lane, equalling a 30-year-old record. But they will still end the season without a trophy, having also been beaten by Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-finals last month.

Eriksen is contracted at Spurs until 2020, having signed a new four-year deal with the North London club in September 2016. 

But while he was rewarded for his fine form by the Tottenham supporters, the 25-year-old missed out on the shortlist for the Premier League's Player of the Season award

Team-mates Alli, Kane and Jan Vertonghen were all nominated, alongside Alexis Sanchez, Romelu Lukaku and Chelsea's N'Golo Kante, Cesar Azpilicueta and Eden Hazard.
