Eriksen: The press is too black and white
28 A-matches and acclaimed as one of Europe's hottest young names - but Christian Eriksen still lacks the final breakthrough on the national team. Sporten.dk put him in the fire hot seat
My last good match was against the Czech Republic in September. I do not have to be decisive in every match.
Christian Eriksen is clear in his voice. He has other criteria for when he plays a good game than Danish football fans who scream at Laudrup'ske bright ideas from the offensive midfielder. Christian Eriksen at the age of 20 years already played 28 A-matches, which still bear witness to a player who has earned the confidence of coach Morten Olsen.
But the breakthrough at the highest level, it lacks stadig.Ikke of the other Under EM, he does not, the player with the decisive actions of the Danish offense. And in Ajax shortcomings he still has to be a level above teammates in battles against Real Madrid in the Champions League.
But the press of black and white in the assessment of Eriksen? Seems he saying that he is about to take the next step on to a bigger league? And he is far too much a team player to be the deciding play? Sporten.dk made a number of claims up to Eriksen and confronted him with them.
It would be a huge dream come true, to play a World Cup football country, Brazil
Totally agree. It's a huge football country and a nation that has dominated football for many decades. It will only help to make the tournament extra life. You think the little samba football, when you talk about the World Cup in Brazil. So clearly, it would be great to experience.
You have to switch to a bigger league soon to develop yourself and redeem your potential
I disagree. I really saying that I am very happy where I am now. I feel that I can easily develop myself much more in Ajax, and it is entirely up to me to become a better football player. You also have to be based on where you are right now instead of looking into the future. There is still a lot of challenges in Ajax.
Cristiano Ronaldo is the best player you have played against in his career
Agree. One can even see in the last game we played against Real Madrid, he suddenly out of the blue kicking it into the long corner. He is a great footballer and I do not think you meet someone who does not want to learn anything from Ronaldo. It's been fun to play against a player at that level. But if you ask me who is the best in the world, so I am inclined therefore still to Messi.
You always run more than ten kilometers per match and work a lot for the team. But you are not selfish enough to be the decisive player in your position
No. You run the for the team, and then you run for themselves. I'm not just the type who takes on the box if there is a teammate in a better position than me. I may as well think about whether I should be more selfish, I will then say that. And it may also be that I need to kick a little more on target and try things on their own even more.
You score not enough goals in relation to your position on the field
Partly agree. For the goals are starting to come now. It was really great to score against Twente other day and be match winner in a difficult game. It was right on top of a lot of criticism, and it gave when a lot of confidence that I took the chance and kicked the box and scored. I can use in the future.
Press looks too black and white on your performance
Totally agree. But I have learned to live with. That's just football. There is no room for nuance the picture and look at how else play a good game when you can not just created a goal and an assist. But it puts no more pressure on me. I'm fine with the pressure and expectations for me.
You have learned to distinguish between people who want to get to know you because you are known, and so those who think that the person Christian is interesting
Absolutely. It's something you learn quietly with the interests of one person. I particularly good brand in the beginning, there were many who wrote on Facebook and so on. Now it is no longer a surprise if a girl suddenly write to me or something like that. You learn to keep the people you know well, closer to the body.
It's great to six Danes in Ajax to socialize with
Definitely. Games will be played a little pig to training, where you certainly do not want to lose. We're pretty good at making things together. There have since been some dinners where Viktor Fischer and Nicolai Boilesen have made something together. And we've also been all Danes out shopping sometimes. But there comes Christian Poulsen and Lasse Schoene enough into the roles of those who need to keep track of the young guys, haha.
