Painfully right footed. He has to do so much squirming simply because he obviously doesn't feel comfortable using his left peg. Peter Cook could write a sketch about someone like him. Wait a minute...

My Danish colleague tells me:

For me a few red flags, he has switched clubs a lot as a youth, at times with poor excuses, suggesting a lack of maturity to me. I am not convinced he is as strong as it is claimed. He had a good run last season, but that was his first season at top-level in Denmark.

It seems like agent stirring to me, with a random list of clubs who may have scouted him.

I don't think he would be given the time and space to do those trademark 360 turns in the Championship. Potentially interesting though.

That is quite a few clubs to be linked in one tweet...I'm going to follow my golden rule of 'if three or more clubs are linked in one story, then it's crap'.

Chattering classes talking out of their....?

Any idea if this is a potential backup to Norgaard?

Possibly. Looks a more attacking player from the showreel.

We get linked with every Danish player so no surprise to see Brentford's name thrown in there

More likely a potential backup for Paris Maghoma.

 

[Friji]

Probably only linked with Villa because we are - maybe they are trying to get ahead of the curve and just sign whoever we are interested in to save them 33m in 2-3 years.

Well, we have a South American Dane, so why not a Tunisian Dane?

 

[Kettering Bee]

It seems if he can’t go around them, he goes through them. Bit of a beast.

Lovely with roast beef and Yorkshire pud

Slimane is a decent talent, and still very young. He could develop into a proper player in the Danish Superliga, but is nowhere near the quality that is needed in the Championship.
