Eriksen is the first player on the team sheet. Those who disagree are blind.
Yep, we've missed him for sure.Rose probably second. Didn't think i'd be saying that 2 years ago.
Yet Eriksen hasn't scored a free kick for us since his double against Swansea in 2015. Comparing that with the standard he'd previously set himself is very poor.Spurs fans complain about freekicks and corners ad infinitum. Hardly any ever get scored by anyone, yet we think they do and all ours are wasted.
The balls are different.Yet Eriksen hasn't scored a free kick for us since his double against Swansea in 2015. Comparing that with the standard he'd previously set himself is very poor.

Make no mistake, I love the guy. Just wish he'd 'rediscover' that part of his game.The balls are different.

You may be right. Mata seems like quite a threat from direct free kicks. Payet had a run, but obviously isn't in the equation anymore. De Bruyne is good.I might be ignorant on this - but since Willian's run last season it doesn't seem any PL player is scoring freekicks regularly?

Pretty sure gylfi and snodgrass have been fairly consistent with them this seasonI might be ignorant on this - but since Willian's run last season it doesn't seem any PL player is scoring freekicks regularly?
Now we've started we can add Alderweireld and Lloris to that? Im so god damn elated we got TobyRose probably second. Didn't think i'd be saying that 2 years ago.
Remember when he scored two of them in one game against Swansea? Fucking brilliant, not sure what's going on. It's a bit like how Ronaldo used to be famous for his free kicks then went a whole year without scoring even one.Was a time when an Eriksen free kick was almost as good as a penalty - I miss those days.

Nobody can.When Chris clicks we win. Tell me the last time we played well without him.
I'm a big Eriksen fan so i agree with every word of that.It gets better.Scapegoat alle the F.....g time ..he is no hero , killing all the opponents by Him self..but a damn good baller..Hes short passing and Ball intelligent, suites a Club Who appriciates his skills ...ex one in spain. Support Him and he Will even score on freekick again.
Amen.
