Why does it take 10 days? Surely personal terms shouldn't be that hard to discuss?

Takes a while sending telegrams between the UK and Denmark.

He scores two with his left in that video (though the quality for one is so bad its hard to see). Looks like a really exciting player, some great finishes, dribbles and a few spectacular goals thrown in.

Oh apparently an "ITK" is claiming that an initall bid of 7,500,000 kr (about £750,000) was rejected and the bid they're now discussing is worth about twice that initially.

He's on the bench got Denmark tonight and not going to get on as they're just making their third substitution whilst losing 2-0 at home to Armenia.

Austrian, Bulgarian, French, Dutch, Scottish, Irish, Belgium , Australia , American , Swiss, Dutch-Moroccan, Denmark and a smattering of English talent.

Look Mr O'neill there are other nations out there!

Makes it more interesting buying these unknown quantities.

After seeing our form pick up at the end of the season, I don't think I've been more excited about a new season for a good while. This is the way to do it, rather than investing in Premiership hasbeen journeymen.

Indeed , if we could add okore and belhanda  and announce a new deal for benteke then i think we could look at challenging for a top 8 finish .

Plus a left back and a goalie we may finish top 10

The team selection i checked he wasnt in the 22 for tonight ?

0-3 down at home to Armenia.

We were only 5 points off the top 10 last season.

Just double checked and he is definately not in the 22 tonight .
Okore is on as sub but the Danes are getting a hiding at home to a team rank outsiders in the group.

My mistake. He was listed on DRs sports page earlier.  It's not just a hiding, it's humiliation. Second best all over the pitch, but especially at the back. Been a bit better since he went to three at the back and brought Okore on at half time.

Andrea Cornelius has done nothing to improve my opnion of him.

Sad to say it but they've missed Bendtner tonight as a proper focal point for the attack. ( if you haven't heard he's suspended by the DBU whilst he's banned from driving after getting done for drink driving without a valid licence - when you pass over here the licence is only valid for 3 years if i remember correctly and had to be renewed which he forgot to do as he has hardly been in the country for the last 4-5 years.)

As I don't follow Supaliga much, I don't know much about him, other than he was second top scorer in the league last season. Reading Aab's fansites they seem pretty resigned to the fact he'll be moving on to a better league than Danish top flight this summer.
 
A couple put question marks over whether he can make the step up, but most think he'll be OK if brought through gradually.

They're pretty quick to dismiss the notion that 6'5" equals a traditional target man. (Poor sods have had a look at VillaTalk). He apparently is just as well known for his set up / approach play as his finishing skills, joint top in assists last year if I read the stats correctly.

And yes Bruce Rioch was coach for Aalborg a few years back. Won the Danish championship and became the first team to get out the CL group stages (finished 3rd and dropped into the Europa league.)

I was kinda hoping you'd say he was crap, like the Belgians on here were saying about Benteke last year.
