In summary, young Eriksen with lesser games scored more

-Direct free kicks
-Game-winning free kicks
-Direct corners
-from outside the box

Rest, your LLL deflection tactics won't work.

Payet destroyed Eriksen in the league that matters. You quickly told us it was Eriksen’s worst season.

Expert17:
Michu outscored some strikers in EPL when he joined Swansea, maybe he's better than them , using your useless logic.

Yeah, he was better than them that season. Michu came 5th on the scorer’s chart in 12/13. The players that finished directly below Michu were young Lukaku, Demba Ba, Berbatov and Lambert. Michu was better.

Expert17:
If we move to Eriksen VS Pogba, suddenly you will remember he won World cup with France and leagues in Italy, chop your LLL, it won't kill you.

Why should we move to Pogba? Because you suddenly realize Eriksen is useless and has no football nous that makes Payet greater? Focus on the subject matter, don’t brinf Pogba to this.

Expert17:
While half-dead Eriksen is busy playing for one of the biggest teams in Europe, your almighty Bad-yet can't make France's bench or get a move outside Ligue 1.

The same Payet that snubbed Man Utd after he left West Ham. I don’t think you know who Payet is. He was one of the best players in the French Ligue 1 last season.

He strolled into another UNFP team of the season last May, he also made UEFA conference league team of the season. All that while, Eriksen was sweeping the streets of Brentford that finished 13th in the PL.

There are levels to this playmaking thing. Eriksen is tiers below Payet. Eriksen has one PFA team appearance in more than 10 seasons of league football, Payet has 4(3 in France & 1 in the PL).

Nothing I say is true, yet reviews are popping up everyday to show you why the 13 pro max is just as good as the 14 pro max? Lol. You don buy am so you have to defend it. Reviewers both here in Nigeria and abroad all say the same thing, and even battery life is significantly better on the 13 pro max than the 14.

You're hammering on nitts when the phone will never reach 2000 indoors? Like you can't manually set it yourself. You have to go outside for it to trigger,, and it spends less than 5 minutes else your battery starts to suffer lol

I won't say you threw money away Sha, you just fell for a really good marketing and presentation strategy. Na island and bragging rights you buy. Nothing else. Lmao. That 20% efficiency is a big, fat lie. I bet you 50k anywhere that apple never mentioned this and you don't have the stats to prove it.
During the launch they compared it to the A13. Not even 14 oh, 13! Lol this guy
Abi you go say you review phones pass this guy for my screenshot? Go to tiktok and YouTube and watch tens of review showing you the same thing.

Even durability, the 13 pro max is more durable than the 14 pro max. There are videos on YouTube to prove it.

Can't blame you tho. I upgrade all the time. I'm a Samsung person, so that means when the s23 comes, I'll get that too. But I won't kid myself and say the upgrade is waaay better than the previous one.

Swallow this L low-key, you get me?

You are quoting the comments of someone who hasn’t even held an iPhone before. You people believe every rubbish your read on the internet. Who gives a flying fück what Fisayo has to say about 14 PM?

A16 Bionic has a billion more transistors than A15. It has 50% more GPU memory bandwidth than the A15. There’s a reason the 14PM is selling more than the regular 14. The regular 14 still has A15 bionic and people are snubbing it for the better processor.

There’s no single metric the 13PM trumps the 14PM - and you should stop relying on people’s reviews to form your own opinion. A lot of these nuccas are broke and they would justify not buying the latest device to mask their broke insecurities.


14PM is 1 billion times better than 13PM.

Auskyd:
Battery. Even usage, it is. Or significantly better. It’s a very superficial upgrade. During the launching they compared the chip to the A13 and not even the A15.

You’re buying dynamic island, pill cut out and cameras. That’s all. The 13 pro max is no pushover to the 14 pro max at all

Nothing you say here is true.

14 PM is significantly better than the 13 PM. 14 PM will give you up to 29 hours video play back while the 13 PM gives you 28 hours.

The engine that runs 14 PM is A16 Bionic and it has an extra 20% efficiency over the A15 that runs the 13 PM. The display on 14PM is also better(2000 nits) to 13 PM’s 1200 nits.

I did a pound to pound comparative metric with both devices and I can tell you free of charge that the 14 PM is the superior device. Maybe the difference isn’t much but if you are 0.0000002mm offside, then you are offside.

Expert17:
Payet is 5 years older than Eriksen.

Irrelevant to the discourse. If you are good enough, you are old enough.

Expert17:
Payet is the undisputed FK taker in all his clubs.

Another lie. He had Mark Noble and Aaron Cresswell at West Ham. They weren’t just as good as Dimitri.

Expert17:
When Payet started playing FKs, Eriksen was still playing academy football.

Payet has played almost 200 games more than Eriksen.

But Illimitable thinks Eriksen has played more.

All irrelevant to the discourse. The amount of games played has no linear equation to the number of free kicks taken.

Expert17:
You have proven Payet is better in FK, but statistics showed Eriksen has scored more despite playing in the best leagues in Europe. D

Take your LLL, it won't kill you

But the moment Payet stepped into the best league in Europe, he sent Eriksen into the trenches. Your excuse was that it was Eriksen’s worst seasons in his pitiful career.

The only reason you haven’t moved on from this issue is because this is the only metric that Eriksen even comes close to Payet. In terms of chances created, big chances created, assists, shot accuracy and all other creativity stats, he’s nowhere near Payet.

Even the free kick stats you are hopelessly clinging on to has nothing to do with playmaking. KDB is 500 million times better than Eriksen as a playmaker and yet he hasn’t scored as many FK goals as Eriksen. So I am wise enough to know your antics concerning this issue but I am not that generous to let you get away with it.

So take your L, blend it with Akamu and milk and take it twice in the morning on an empty stomach.

Payet did Eriksen dirty in the PL.

Expert17:
An expert like you want to use freekick played in the same league and year as if it was played in the same condition ( distance from goal, players in the wall, etc...).lolGame-winning

You haven't answered my question - who do you think played more free kicks so far? 35 year old undisputed FK taker or 30 year old Eriksen that shared the duty with other free kick experts.

So far you haven't proved in any way that Payet is better than Eriksen in freekick. Your L- diversion tactics can't work on me.

With my statistics, Payet has played more free kicks and scored less despite facing farmers all through his career.

Games Played - Payet
Free kick played - Payet

Free kick goals - Eriksen
Game winning free kick goals - Eriksen.

I have proven Payet is better. The only reason we are still on this topic is because your bruised ego is refusing to lie down.

How many direct free kicks has Payet taken? You don’t know. You don’t know how many direct free kicks Eriksen has taken but you want to compare career stats?

If you can find a credible sports site that can tell how many direct FKs that was attempted by Payet to the ratio of how many scored, then we can have an argument but I am not even sure that argument would have a leg to stand on cos you have said before now that Ligue 1 is a farmer’s league.

I have provided the PL stats of both players in the same season and you quickly made a U-turn that it was Eriksen’s worst season. Is it Payet’s fault that Eriksen had a terrible season or you think a witch doctor told Payet to quickly go to West Ham in 2015 because it was going to be Eriksen’s worst performance?

Expert17:
Ok Sir.

Eriksen scored free kicks in Holland, Denmark, Italy and England but he won't score in France.

35-year-old Undisputed FK taker = 14 free kicks goals in 595 games

30 -year-old FK taker = 20 free kicks goals in 399 games.

The games don’t determine the number of free kicks attempted.

This is a fraudulent way of looking at stats. Eriksen played 38 games in 14/15 and he didn’t take a single direct free kick.

Now an amateur like you would might say how can a player play 38 games without scoring a free kick but he must take one before he can score one.

We don’t know how many FKs Payet attempted in those 595 games. Unless you do, it’s a flawed way of looking at their ability as a set piece taker.

I bet you know this already but the stats have conspired so much against you that you are just throwing everything in the air. The last one was the funniest, pressure from team mates.

Expert17:
He shot blanks in 2 seasons but still has more free-kick goals than Payet despite playing almost 200 games less.

I love your jokes

Payet had more FK goals than him in the PL(the best and toughest league in Europe).

We don’t know how Eriksen would have thrived in Ligue 1 until he plays there. Many thought Messi would score 500 PL goals in one season at PSG, he scored only 6 league goals.

Therefore, the only accurate comparative stats can only be in the PL when both players faced the same officiating, same league, same opponents, same environment.

And when we compared their stats in that period, Eriksen ate grass, Payet strolled into the PFA team of the season with a mid table team like West Ham.

#Levels.

Harry Maguire releases another banger.

His PR works harder than Kante. Their work rate is the combined effort of Kante, Essien and Ji Sung Park moulded together.

Now, De Gea’s communication is the reason Maguire hasn’t played so well. Vidic and Rio never had this problem. They played with De Gea when DDG was still very new in England and couldn’t communicate in English.

If you have a British passport in the PL, you can play shit for many many years and there would be people saying you are a world class player.

Auskyd:
The 13 pro max is better. Check reviews.

13 PM is better than 14 PM or the battery on 13PM is better than the one on 14 PM?

Expert17:
Search the internet, you will see his Ligue 1 FK stats.

Your statistics didn't consider
- the age ( giving him edge as per experience and no taken)
-no of games played
-strength of opposition
-strength of league
-teammates who can play freekick thereby putting pressure on him

Oga rest, Eriksen >>>>>> Payet

Another excuse.

Team mates who can play free kick put pressure on Eriksen? In no time, you would blame the cleavages of female football fans on the stands as one of the factors that distracted Eriksen from scoring.

Eriksen shot blanks in 2016/17 and 2017/18.

Expert17:
Payet is 5 years older than Eriksen and the undisputed free kick taker for his clubs and you are here asking who played more.

Age has nothing to do with ability.

Expert17:
But your theory is accurate, comparing Eriksen's worst Free kick year WITH Payet's best free-kick year.

Why don't you use 2014?

It so happened that the only period Eriksen and Payet were together in the same environment/facing the same opponents coincided with Eriksen’s worst year.

What a coincidence!!!

In 2014, Eriksen and Payet weren’t in the same league, in the same environment facing the same level of opponents.

This is logic, not beer parlor gists. 2016/17 wasn’t Eriksen’s worst year by the way. He had many other disgraceful performances when taking direct free kicks.

Expert17:
How can your 35-year-old idol play 99% of his career in Ligue 1 and scored just 14 free-kicks?

14 FKs scored from how many FK shots?

100? 200? 30000? 5 million?

Your theory fall on its face. We don’t know how good or poor 14 FKs are until we know the total number of direct FKs taken.

This is why your point is illogical.

Expert17:
Ok, they don't play free-kicks in France. Lol

Your amala-logic won't work, with all available stats covering their career, Eriksen is the better free-kick taker.

30-year-old Eriksen scored 20.

35-year-old Payet scored 16.

They play FKs in France but we don’t know the ratio of how many direct FK shots to how many direct FK scored. We are talking about their FK accuracy not the longevity of their careers.

In statistics, you need to be accurate. You just don’t throw numbers together. I have presented an empirical evidence that shows Eriksen took 46 FK shots and scored only 2 goals from it in the PL while Payet was in England.

The number of appearances or number of minutes do not predict the number of direct FK shots taken. Age does not also accurately determine the number of direct FK shots taken.

You have to be specific instead of throwing every shït in the air and hoping one would stick. If you have the accurate number of direct FKs taken by both Eriksen and Payet throughout their careers, then we can explore that option.

For now…..Payet >>>>>> Eriksen.

Auskyd:
5H SOT is what you are happy about? Lol bro.

What are you talking about?

I had it on for only 5 hours yesterday cos I got it very late in the evening last night. The battery on 14PM is actually one of the best around.

Expert17:
Ok, so show us their career statistics

Who scored more free-kicks?

Who played more games?

Who played against better team's/GKs?

We don’t care about career statistics.

Your narrative started with Payet always played in Ligue 1(farmer’s league) barring 18 months in the toughest league in Europe.

While he was in the PL, he scored more from direct FK goals from fewer shots than Eriksen. There’s nothing more to add since we have been able to establish that.

Someone said the best way to compare the two is the actual number of free kicks they had taken when they were together in the same league and I agree with that theory.

It’s illogical to look at career stats when we don’t know how many FK shots were taken in those years by each player. We know the stats in the PL and those stats say Payet is more accurate at scoring from direct FKs than Eriksen.

QED!!!!

Expert17:
Bruno played PK while CR7 was on the field AND CR7 did same while Bruno was on the field.

Messi allowed Suarez, Neymar and even Sanches take some freekick.

In summary, it was shared with other freekick expert not just anybody.




Kane, Modric, Bale etc all played and scored Freekick at Tottenham. He shared it with them.

Take your L in peace

Now it has become a game winning free kick?

How can your idol take 22 different direct free kicks in a 16/17 season and scored 0 goals? The annoying thing is you tried to blame it on sharing.

What has sharing gotta do with 0/22 hit rate in 16/17?

Expert17:
Bruno is one of the best PK taker in the world but he shares the duties with CR7....oya explain

Payet is older, healthier, played 97% of his career against farmers, had no competition, and played more games.

Eriksen is the better free kick taker. EOD.

Older
Healthier
Farmers
No competition
More games.

None of these disproves why Eriksen scored way less from direct free kicks than Payet when both were in the PL.

Payet spent only 18 months in the PL and scored way more against PL opponents. He went back to France in the second half of 16/17 and still didn’t miss a step.

I so much love statistics.

Expert17:
Bruno is one of the best PK taker in the world but he shares the duties with CR7....oya explain

Payet is older, healthier, played 97% of his career against farmers, had no competition, and played more games.

Eriksen is the better free kick taker. EOD.

Ronaldo is better than Bruno and Cristiano is the better taker. In the two games Bruno got the ball, the manager(Ten Hag) wanted it so to help Bruno’s poor form as at then.

Your cognitive dissonance is what is being brought to question here. After lying for 3 days that Eriksen shared his free kick duties with 40 different players, statistics have actually revealed he took more direct FK shots than Payet but scored way less than Payet.

In 15/16 & 16/17, Eriksen scored 2 miserable direct FKs from 46 direct FK shots in the PL. Payet scored 3 direct FKs from 34 direct FK in the PL.

You are about the only football fan who thinks 2/46 is a higher rate and a higher accuracy than 3/34.

Choke who with stats?

Expert17:
You used 3+ days to come up with these points that are weaker than a penis that just ejaculated.

30 year old Eriksen has 20 Freekicks goals playing in the best leagues alongside great set pieces takers while 35 year old Payet played 98% of his football in farmers league as the only set piece taker for his clubs.


Eriksen >>>>>> Payet

Like I don’t have things to do outside this godforsaken place?

You have been parroting this lie that Eriksen shared free kicks with other players but that’s not true.

There are two problems with that theory. The first one is if he’s so good at it, he wouldn’t need to share and again, it depends on which side of the pitch the free kick is situated viz-a-viz his weak foot.

I like how the facts always manage to conspire against you and destroy your narrative.

See for yourself.

Can we move to the next AM attribute?

But in those 18 months in England, Payet scored free kicks against Man Utd and Liverpool(two top teams).

Eriksen in close to 8 seasons in England has never scored a free kick against a top 6 side.

As for international free kick goals scored, Eriksen has played 8,700+ minutes for Denmark with 4 direct free kick goals scored. He scored in friendlies against low ranked teams like Scotland and Georgia & Poland. The only free kick goal he scored in a proper football game was against 92nd ranked Armenia.

Payet has played 2100+ minutes for France with 2 direct free kick goals against Russia and Cameroon. Payet’s persistent injuries has kept him away from his national side that is way more talented than Eriksen’s Denmark. We aren’t even sure Eriksen would make the French squad in his prime.

In conclusion, Eriksen scored a direct free kick goal in every 2,200 minutes for Denmark

Payet scored a direct free kick goal in every 1050 minutes for France.

As for club football in England(non farmer’s league)

Payet has scored 6 direct free kick goals in 4,981 mins in England.

Eriksen has 11 direct free kick goals in 25,713 mins in England.

In conclusion, Eriksen scored a direct free kick goal every 2,338 minutes in England.

Payet scored a direct free kick goal every 830 minutes in England.

I hereby rest my case.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0lCayxmIrI

Payet is a learner

This Expert17 is a fraud like Maguire.

80% of these free kicks were when Eriksen was in Ajax.

You wouldn’t accept Payet’s free kick records in Marseille(a bigger league than Dutch league) but you would accept Ajax free kicks as evidence of superiority.

If I post Payet’s free kick compilation, you would faint.

odizeey:
Comparing someone that scored a final goal. And had one of the best performances in that final to someone who's on the bench almost throughout.

Omo. Nawa

Agenda must agend.

Expert17:
U17 and U19?? How many?

I just shared a short video where you can see all his free kicks, no need to argue.

Watch and enjoy

I saw the video, none of the international goals was for a senior team. The video even showed corner free kicks that he didn’t mean to score but had an awkward bounce.

This was the direct free kick he scored against De Gea. No goalkeeper in the world is catching it. He placed the ball perfectly and this was peak De Gea(15/16) - the PFA De Gea.

Leyqute:
The right metric should be no of free kicks taken vs free kicks on target vs free kicks scored. Just like shot conversion rate.

That’s the objective way to approach it.

Payet more than doubled Eriksen’s shot conversion rate in the PL.

Expert17:
You tube video showing Eriksen 20 freekick goals

Eriksen shared the duty with Berbatov, Modric, Bale, Kane, Son, Dier, Perisic, Martinez, Bruno, Etc

Mention 1 player Payet shared the duty with.

About half of those goals were under-19 and under-17 competitions and Ajax(a bigger farmer’s league) than Ligue1.

I can’t remember Eriksen scoring directly from a free kick for the senior national team.

If you have any game, present the evidence.

Expert17:
Clubs and NT combined.

That’s not true.

Payet in 1.5 seasons scored 6 goals from direct free kick with West Ham.

3 in the PL and another 3 in domestic competitions.

Eriksen doesn’t even come close.

They have asked you to move to another category but your stubbornness and bruised ego won’t let you.

Payet 1-0 Eriksen(Freekick)!

Present the next attribute.

Expert17:
Conspire? Never

Eriksen has scored at least 20 direct freekicks.

20 in which league?

The stats have conspired against Expert17.

Expert17:
1. He scored the worst set piece GK (DDG) how many?

2. Payet played all the set pieces, Eriksen shares the duty with Kane, Modric, Bale, etc

But Payet scored 3 in 18 months(1.5 seasons)

Eriksen has 8 in 8 PL seasons.

Nobody cares how many people players Eriksen shares with. If he’s good at it, nobody would take it from him. Nobody takes it away from Ward-Prowse.

Payet is 1000 times better at free kicks than Eriksen.

BlaqFaze:
Really? you dey watch ball sef..

I don’t think so. Payet that was banging in free kicks for France in 2016 Euros. Maybe De Gea was the opponent’s goalkeeper too.

Expert17:
Oga, Eriksen is better.

DDG and ligue 1 goalkeepers (eg Mendy) who are naturally bad at set pieces helped him. Even Pepe was scoring free kicks there.

Here we go again with Eriksen’s debut.

It’s like you don’t know the basis of your stats.

Expert17:
Run? I go choke you with facts

Choke?

You made a list of attributes and Payet ate everything you listed and you want to choke me facts.

Let it go.

Payet in 18 months of PL scored from 3 direct free kicks.

Eriksen in 8 seasons has 8 direct free kicks but you want to convince me Eriksen is the better set piece specialist?
