If we get an offer of £10m or more you are cordially invited to my house for a slap up meal and champagne to celebrate.   

It’ll be like when all the players were at Vardy’s for the Chelsea game.

 

scenes when the sky sports banner comes along with ‘’Forest set to sign danish international Kristiansen’.

 

Get the Captain Morgan rum out.

He’s technically doggo though and in relative comparison to others. He’ll look good in other leagues that are lower technically overall. 
 

He’ll be loved by some though as he shows “passhun”. The sort of people that liked Danny Tiatto and Iain Hume, as they ran around a lot, without being very good. He’ll never get away with that in the Premier League or La Liga. 
 

We’ll need around £8m to cover PSR I believe. 


 

would you really say the Italian league is technically inferior to the premier league? I’d have to disagree with that. And he’s shone in the Italian league.

 

i think his problem is the pace of the game. The British game is played at a far faster pace than any other and he struggles with  the quick decision making that comes with that .  Hes caught out of position more. He’s got more time to think in Italy and it shows in his performances.

Well I suppose the question there is if you can't use your technical ability with the pace of the game, how much technical ability do you have?

I think at a slower pace, you can control the ball easier, get into position, read the game etc.

 

Technically, it’s much of a muchness in fairness, it’s the football IQ and doing it at a frenetic pace in the Premier League. 
 

The reason it doesn’t get played at that pace in Italy, Spain, UAE etc is the heat, let’s be honest. You have to play a slower game where you have that second more to find a pass.

 

In England, you just don’t get that. You’ve getting pressed for longer periods. 
 

It’s one of the reasons certain players have found the Premier League so difficult, as they can all control a ball, pass etc. doing that at speed ….. is something else.

Kristiansen will be a better footballer than 99.9% of people will ever be on Foxestalk. 

 

If that's a yardstick for a footballer 

 

My god

Levels.

 

How many people do you know that looked amazing as youth players, however reached a certain level and they’re average. 
 

I think the odds are something like only 0.5% of people that enter an academy will ever play a youth game.

 

To even make it to the Premier League is a massive achievement. This is why producing youth players to play within the Premier League is incredible. The fact we produced a player in Dewsbury-Hall that has won the Club World Cup, is crazy when you think about it. 
 

Kristiansen is without doubt a very good football player, compared to 99.9% of the world. What he isn’t, is amongst the elite players that we’ll require if we want to stay in that division. 
 

Even the gap between the Championship and Premiership Is a major step.

I can pass, control, shoot etc given time. Everyone can, let’s be honest.
 

I never made it past academy football. 
 

When you play superior players that can press quicker, a split 2nd makes a difference. 
 

The top leagues, are as much about consistency as anything else. 
 

Kristiansen will be a better footballer than 99.9% of people will ever be on Foxestalk. However he’s most likely in the best 10,000 footballers in the billions of people on the planet currently.

 

Unfortunately, the Premier League has 500 players better. So you need to find a league where you are comfortable. 

 

 

Zlatan did a Hot Ones episode (absolute bollocks for anyone that doesn't know) which briefly explained the differences.

 

Excuse the presenter and the subs.  Although I didn't fxxking edit it.

 

 

 

And that's why VK is shit over here.

 

 

 

 

Syria?  WTaF!

He’s spot on.

 

Football is played in certain countries as the climate dictates to a degree.

 

It is also one of the reasons why British teams struggle at International competitions that are played in the hot summer months. You can’t play that fast paced, front to back, aggressive football in the heat and humidity.

 

Peps Barca team had exceptional ability, that could press in that heat. Fitness is such an important thing in football, as much about being able to bloody breath and still choose the correct pass after you’ve played 75 minutes in extreme heat as anything else.
 

Athletic ability and stamina are two massive matrix in football as well now. In British football, you can’t play sort of get away with that up until Championship level. This is why when teams get promoted that are gritty, powerful etc, they fail in the Premier League, as they’re full of players like Kristiansen, that don’t make that step up technically.

 

Whilst back onto Kristiansen, he won’t go to United. I’m not even sure he’ll go to Milan, as he’s most likely been used as a name people know who are available, so they can force another move along.

I agree with your assessment that the PL has the best and falling short of that doesn’t make a terrible player, just one that needs to find where they fit like VK did in Italy.

 

However, even 99.9% is clearly wrong. He is better than 100% of those on this forum and by a long way! Unless we have any people currently playing professional football on here!

I am mindful that the forum will have players that creep on the forum :ph34r:

I was speaking to an extended family member or VK…

 

Apparently his family do not like Leicester(shire). And he is looking for a move either back to Copenhagen or a London club…

 

(take it with a pinch of salt but I think there’s quite a bit of truth in this)

Who knows if this is true but modern day footballers bitch about the lamest things. Entitled babies.

If he doesn't like it here then get rid. He doesn't offer anything or would be missed, let's be honest. But the injury will probably mean that he's here till Jan at least. He would be one of the first on my list I would want to sell, and loads higher than JJ.

The second paragraph explains why you don’t need to be as technically good in Italy. Far more time to make decisions and execute actions makes technically inferior players look better.

Bear in mind the comment says his family.... seems completely fair that his family might struggle to settle in a foreign country when it wasn't their idea to move here. But if the London bit is true then it does seem a bit of a finger pointed at Leicestershire in general lol

This is a shame isn’t it, I was desperate to see him blowing after running the length of the pitch to put his cross into the first man.

Can’t imagine anyone will want to take a player who has been relegated in back to back PL seasons and not had a pre-season due to injury.
 

imagine we’re stuck with him until Jan.
