Christian Eriksen: All the criticism has gone to Theo Janssen that is undeserved – Eredivisie news
Ajax Amsterdam young playmaker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Christian-Eriksen-c9074, has stressed that the criticism Theo Janssen is facing is undeserved and admitted that he should be taking a share of the criticism as well.
The reigning Eredivisie champions are currently going through a bad patch. They have won only one of their last seven matches in all competitions, and that win came against Noordwijk in the KNVB beker Cup.
The poor run of form has cost the Amsterdam giants badly. Currently placed sixth in the league table, the Dutch champions trail the league leaders http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AZ-c38571 Alkmaar by six points.
Janssen, who arrived at Amsterdam Arena from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Twente-c39233 earlier this summer, has struggled to live up to the expectations of the Amsterdammers' faithful fans. Although the 30-year-old has netted three goals in nine league appearances, his performances in
the midfield were far from pleasing.
After failing to meet to the expectations, the veteran midfielder has received heavy criticism. However, Eriksen feels that criticising only one player in the whole squad is undeserved.
“I am still relatively spared. All the criticism has gone to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Theo-Janssen-c34871 and that is undeserved. They can also check out to see if I have been running the midfield. I find it ridiculous that all the criticism is directed at one player”, the young Danish
ace was quoted as saying to the Dutch media.
The youngster then went on to express his frustration on not playing at his usual No. 10 position, which is occupied by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Siem-de-Jong-c33482.
“I am better at No10. I like the freedom to roam right or left. That is how I was trained and it feels natural to me. We also have played some good matches with Siem de Jong and Theo next to me. We are working hard to perform consistently”, Eriksen concluded.
