Power and whip on them, great delivery and surprised we don't consider using him to take corners and leave Ollie to attack them.

Ollie has better delivery from corners I think. Also, Dalsgaard is actually a fairly decent attacking option in the opposition box, possibly our best.

I like this lad who I am sure must have some Teutonic blood in him as he sure as hell likes a tackle.

He was however a silly boy when he charged their forward inside our box after Bentley had collected the ball, could have been a pen and a yellow as it was unnecessary( if it was Egan then same applies, my eyes are not what they once were!!!)
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Thought he had a good attacking game and linked very well with Flo, defensively didn’t hold him accountable for the long punt over Egan / Bjelland, keeper flapping at a corner and desperate challenge by Woods.

Put me down as a flame thrower.

Sorry not completely in the Henrik fan club yet.

Today summed it all up for me a real curates egg of a performance.

On the positive side loved his commitment and willingness to get forward. He's a big strong unit and wins his fair share of headers. When he does get it right going forward he can deliver good balls into dangerous areas.

However the negatives were unnecessary fouls given away in dangerous positions and getting caught out of position far too often. When Clarke pushes forward Dalsgaard is slow to tuck in with the centre halves and leaves them exposed (Bjelland and Egan aren't the quickest as Grabban demonstrated on more than one occasion today).

I want to like him and hope he can find the consistency of performance to make Colin a dim distant memory.

If it helps Colin scored an OG today, and a Brum mate of mine said he's been ****

Dreadful again, too many fouls given away, can’t cross and not good enough I’m afraid.

Can't cross? Seriously?

ah yes - i forgot but, to be fair, the STUPID foul he gave away in the 93rd minute down by the corner flag could've really cost us :nono:

The guys is a danish international, who will be going to the World Cup when they beat Ireland. He’s fitted into our system nicely. Like him, always gives 100%

Should just be played as a winger wing/back put someone else in defence who onlu just goes over the half way line e.g.egan or bjelland.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

...met this big lad in the club shop a few weeks ago,where he was 'on duty' following his head knock at Sheffield....told him i'd lived in Danmark for a while in 1989....'really'...he said with a cheeky grin...then....'i was born in 1989'.....made me feel old the git....i like him....good that his game seems to be steadily improving.

That's not our game. We won't be doing that.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

I like him. A good player going forward with a cracking cross. He just needs to stop giving away stupid cheap fouls on the edge of our box.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

I think he is a very, very good player. Nobody is perfect but this chap will do very well for us. At least he isn't always injured like Colin (don't say that........)

In some ways, I prefer him to make those dodgy challenges and give away the fouls out there, particularly on the touch line, although not so close in that there's a direct scoring opportunity. It's about decision-making: does the free kick give a better defensive position than the one at that moment? (Note to Mr Woods.)
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

I like the look of him and think he'll be a very good player for us but he strikes me as being a confidence player. Saw further examples on Saturday of him berating himself over errors. I just get the feeling that he doesn't know if the fans like him and he literally beats himself up when he makes mistakes. I might be wrong but I just get that impression that he needs to know the fans are on his side.

For those heading to Preston at the weekend, maybe sing his name before the game and make a concerted effort to support him throughout the 90 minutes.

I think once he's completely settled and feels the love of the fans, we'll see him develop into a top class player.

Henrik, Henrik Dalsgaard, king of the right frontier.

I'll get my coat...
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

A good player going forward with a cracking cross.

Agreed. In particular, the cross he put over, which Maupay headed at the keeper, near the end, was superb. From my vantage point, behind the goal, you could see just how much curl and dip he put on the ball.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

We were very lucky with Maxi whom I genuinely believe is a PL player and we would have been extreamly lucky to get another RB who is as skilful as he was at an affordable price

But in Henrik we have an International for a country who are no mugs and we should feel lucky again that we have a defender of that calibre .. any doubters need to give him a bit more time to prove what a good defender he is and we should not be comparing like for like with Maxi as he is a different type of fullback .. I for one love it when he bombs down the right wing overlapping looking to put over a cross and also he stands his ground against any rough play and gives back as much as he gets .. and we are going to need fighters this season

Good post. Shame for everyone that Maupay couldn't put away his sublime cross on Saturday but I still reckon he'll become a crowd favourite soon.

Hmmm hmmm, hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm, hmm hm hm hmm hmmmmmmm.

Something like that I think. :shrug:

Met him in the club shop and he was very friendly but he always looks so angry when he's playing. Good player hope he makes it on to a panini sticker this summer.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Taken off injured last night, any news on how bad it is?

no, think Dean said after they'll get it looked at... hopefully just sore rather than damaged... looked a bit nasty, but he hobbled on for a little while which suggests it wasn't a proper bad one...
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Mind you, so did Jota after the Douglas tackle. :very angry:
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Mind you, so did Jota after the Douglas tackle. :very angry:

And so did Canos twice this season.

Both went off straight away. Dalsgaard did play on, gingerly - no reference to Woods ;) - and then got subbed. A nasty challenge that went unpunished for an incompetent ref. Dalsgaard Had a good game too. :)
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Blimey, my memory is shocking. I was convinced Jota played on after the tackle, even finished the game. I thought Canos played on for a bit in the friendly, but admit to not remembering the league game, even if the memory is false!

Wasn't it the last 'kick/stamp' of the game when Jota got stamped on?
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Ah, ok that explains it. I seem to remember Jota receiving a sliding tackle from Douglas outside the area. He carried on, but it looked nasty and took Jota out on his standing leg at the ankle. I thought that was the damage causing incident. Didn't know he stamped on him at the end of the game, or don't remember. Phew, don't want my long term memory becoming as bad as my short term.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Hope he is Ok as he is settling into being a key player for us, his height and aggression is a useful outlet. Not that Josh can't play in that position but he is doing just fine at left back at the moment
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

He's having a scan today it seems.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

I think we can all read that as 'he's out tomorrow'.

If Barbet comes in at left-back, I just hope that three strenuous games in eight days isn't too much for Bjelland?
