Right now, who is the best free kick taker in the world?

I'm taking this guy.
Christian Eriksen has been stupid good this season on free kicks. Yes. I'm biased. But I never thought Spurs would have a better free kick taker than Bale, and it's already happened.

Oddly enough, this was posted just last week. Taking into consideration the last 14 seasons of Premier league play.
Right now, based on quantifiable data, it's Juan Mata followed by Leighton Baines.
1.Juan Mata
2.Sebastian Larsson
3.Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink
4.David Beckham
5.Nolberto Solano
6.Thierry Henry
7.Danny Murphy
8.Ryan Giggs
9.Leighton Baines
10.Laurent Robert
The Spain international has scored five of his 28 attempts, giving him a conversion rate of 17.9 per cent - almost three times the success rate of Everton ace Baines, who is ninth on our list with 6.6 per cent (five goals from 76 shots).
Obviously the list excludes a lot of great players, and is only relevant to the English league.

Laugh now, but I want you to think of me when it's a solid fact in three years.

Which are you saying?
Also, are we talking for setup FK play or direct to goal?

The media is always behind. I believe Eriksen is the best right now.

FINE I'LL MEET YOU HERE 3 YEARS SO YOU CAN EAT YOUR CROW

Three years is a LONG time. You can't say best currently and then jump to 2018.
And if you're seriously telling me there's not one player who you'd prefer over a dead ball than Eriksen right now, I don't believe you LOL.

His free kicks are a fairly healthy percentage of our offense.
