I agree, he needs a break he’s played so many minutes over the last few years just looks knackered. His driving runs aren’t half as regular as they used to be, maybe he’s getting older and slower yes but I think the poor bloke is probably just knackered too.

Combination of the two.

The fact is, he’s 31 and has 6 months on his contract. He’s neither as fast as he used to be nor fit enough to start every match. I know we have Roerslev who is injured, but I think we should have brought in a right back in the Summer if it had been possible.

For sure! From what I’ve seen Roerslev still looks like a boy amongst men, no way up to the standards set by Henrik but all that could change. Just think he could do with a loan and we need another RB. Maybe Canos could fill in at RWB, but he seems happier further forward.

He probably has some playing years left in him as a centre back, just not with us.

May I put in a word for Henrik in the Bournemouth game?

I thought he was fantastic throughout, even though he was given a really hard time defending he stuck to it with a real focus. He also took his goal superbly, being wrestled by Lerma he still got the header in. But he also did a lot of organising in his area of the pitch, positioning Mbeumo, Janelt and Dasilva to gain control, not the swashbuckling performances we sometimes see but vary tactical. Very close to Jensen for MoM.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Agreed that’s the best I’ve seen of him for a while. Very good.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

He has been a really good player for us. Only time he was below par is when he came back from the World Cup, having on pre season break.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

You could see from his goal that he once played as a centre forward. Andy Scott in part responsible for his recruitment?
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Never less than 100% effort. Great goal last night.

Really missing seeing HD's pre-match "thigh slapping" self motivation...........:( Another of the sad COVID repercussions............
Enjoyed seeing him carrying his fellow countryman, 6'4" Philip Billing, away from the fracas towards the end of the game last night!!

that was my champagne moment

Solid as usual last night, may get 2 weeks off now. Fosu for Bristol City and Spurs and Stevens for Boro.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Excellent vs Bournemouth, and was able to get up and down well without showing signs of slowing up.

We still need to replace him in the next six months, for reasons outlined previously. But he will go down as the best right back we’ve had (certainly in my lifetime).

Certainly offer him at least a 1 year contract,his experience on and off the pitch can only be helpful

He's a very important player for us, I hope you can keep beyond this season.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

I think in this instance it is as much about what Dalsgaard wants. Does he want to stay with us or go home?

I’m sure has has earned a new contract if he wants one, even if he Isn’t first choice next season.
It also depends which division we are
In.
Roerslev’s long term injury and the fact he hasn’t had more experience so far this season makes Henrik even more valuable to us.

I would imagine this will have a big bearing on either a new contract for HD or the quality and experience of replacement we sign.

Dont see him being here next season - think we will look for a Henry mark 2 at RB. Been a great servant and superb value for money - would be a wonderful leaving present to get us to PL

Personally I expect Roerslev to be first choice next year. If we don’t go up anyway.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

If we go up I’d like him to stay as we’ll benefit from having his experience and maybe he’d be happy to get the chance to play in the PL. If not, I’m sure the club would be OK with supporting him to move home. But I doubt BFC would be happy if he was just looking for a free move to another English club.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

There's not been a hint of a further contract but that may be because we tend to do that after the January window closes. If he believes we can win promotion, he may be tempted to give us another year but I'd guess he's been here long enough and would take the opportunity to get a decent contract back home. Maybe the age of his children will be a determining factor.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Seemed to be let off the shackles tonight.. Furthest forward we've seen him for ages and soooo effective.. Could it be Roerslev's return is allowing him to expend a bit more energy in games now knowing we can give him a rest if need be?

Let's not talk about not going up. If we're still in the Championship next season the likes of JDS, Rico, Toney and Norgaard will likely be gone, so the RB will not be the biggest priority ?
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Swansea's formation, particularly the one we pushed them into, and Dasilva attracting so much attention from their midfield, gave him a lot of space to work in and he used it very well.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Got to play at the moment as he is our stand-in skipper, we would lack leadership without him.

Pleased Roerslev is back as we must wrap him in cotton wool and keep him fresh. When well rested there are few better at this level. He knows exactly when to tuck in as the third centre back and when to bomb forward and overlap. But when he’s leggy it is a struggle and painful to watch.
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

Excellent last night.
Rested Saturday, back for Bristol City.....??
 

Henrik Dalsgaard (Released)

At least another season especially the experience he'll bring when we get promoted. Please stop going on about him being too old, he's only 31 !

I don’t think he particularly needs resting but we could do with getting Roerslev some more games. He’s looked v good so far since he returned and provides a real threat going forward
