I have noticed a very, very talkative Silkeborg player. And all the talk about Silkeborg playing much better football this season than last, is perhaps justified. Instead of kicking the ball 40 yards up the field like they did last season, they kick it just 35 yards forward this season.

Once you know what failure feels like, determination chases success.
Sportsmanship for me is when a player leaves the field and you can’t tell if the player has won or lost. When the player exudes pride regardless of the result.
Is it cool to be Nicklas Bendtner right now? It’s always cool to be Nicklas Bendtner.
With stubbornness, you can turn defeats into amazing achievements.
Professional soccer is not a social office.
I think it was a really bad team they had assembled. I could not see what the party monkey and the toad face would help John Faxe Jensen with.
It’s different from being 21 and you think there’s endless amount of opportunities. At 33, the ending is much, much closer.
