Who asked? I'm sorry, but while poor pronunciations can and do irk me, I realise that it's the same all over the globe. We are dreadful at pronouncing foreign names in Denmark too. We have even been so pretentious to give one of our famous dishes a French name (risalamande) only to completely butcher the pronunciation. Danish is a HORRIBLE language to teach to foreigners and the way we spell versus the way we pronounce even gives most Danes a headache. Good of you to point it out, but I wouldn't bother. Also, they don't pronounce VK correctly in general. They are much closer to 'Kristensen', where the emphasis in Kristiansen is on the penultimate syllable (why?!). Very fair point, if it wasn't for English being just as impossible

Mads. The timing of his injury was disastrous. He will likely leave this summer and this would be a fine recognition of what a revelation he has been for us. Probably our best signing since Fofana, although Fatawu may still turn out great for us. Edit: on a more humourous level I'd give it to Monga. He's the only positive footnote in the annals of this season.

Bit late to the party, but Adolescence was stunning. The story, the acting, the filming was so good. It's so relatable in most aspects and I feel it does a good job of showing how many factors there are and how difficult it is to navigate as an adolescent and an adult. So many poignant moments that really hit home. Hugged my sleeping son a few times after I finished the series. Excellent piece of cinema.

Getting hooked on The Bazaar. Steep learning curve with many moving parts, but really well-crafted game which offers incredible flexibility and so many different strategies. Love the asynchronous PVP as well. For a dad with small kids I can effectively rule out any live PVP games.

Obviously, but I just don't hear or see them being challenged in the US about the "international security" argument. I realise it probably doesn't change a thing, but still, let's call it for what it is.

Problem is we have pathetic manpower and firepower. In the current situation, the US are absolutely right that Denmark and Greenland are woefully equipped and deals made in 2019 are yet to yield results. So there is fair criticism. Which Denmark acknowledge. That said, the US have had a deal in place with Denmark and NATO since WWII that virtually allows them free reign over Greenland when it comes to military presence. I've not heard Vance or Trump faced with the questions of what exactly they desire Greenland for. They have access to military, they have access to resources but they've been unwilling to invest. Meanwhile, Denmark are paying the bill for i.e. social, judicial & health services, infrastructure and defense which runs up to € 600 mil yearly. I struggle to see what the motivations are besides being a vanity project and screwing over Greenland completely.

Lots of endeavour, little quality. He won the ball back a couple of times and then immediately lost it again. But all the subs were a downgrade, except Biereth, IMO.

Wow. Kasper... He's injured his shoulder and still makes a flying save to deny a killer blow, screaming in agony as he lands. The warriors out there tonight. Hats off to the lot of them. What a show.

Massive chance for Denmark to win at the death. What a breathtaking tie.

Really enjoyable evening of football this!

And there we go, Portugal equalise again on 86 mins. Schmeichel at fault with a poor punch.

Kristiansen now on as well. Update: Yes, he was shit for Denmark too.

Wow, this is some tie this! Both teams are fighting so so hard. 4 goals already and I feel it's not the last. Also, Schmeichel is having a great game. Two point-blank stops from Ronaldo and a penalty save.

"Football is a game of two halves/ties." On show tonight. Having been completely bossed around and lucky to escape with just a 1-0 defeat, Portugal are completely in control in the return game and should be leading the tie. Nervous 45 minutes to go.

I don't recall it being that cold. But I was sat in a different stand with MC Prussian, so maybe not comparable.
