Hard work is more important than talent when talent does not want to work hard.
Everything negative – pressure, challenges – is all an opportunity for me to rise.
Sören Åkeby gets standing ovations when he says at a press conference that AGF will be Danish champions in three years, and there is not a single one who asks if he is raving insane.
I can’t relate to lazy people. We don’t speak the same language. I don’t understand you. I don’t want to understand you.
An ordinary Sunday
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.
There are too many factors you have to take into account that you have no control over. The most important factor you can keep in your own hands is yourself. I always placed the greatest emphasis on that.
I would like to play for an Italian club, such as Barcelona.
Today you can just show bare ass for ten seconds on TV, then you are world famous in Denmark. 25 years ago, it required much more starquality.
One must have a big nose to be able to smell something.

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.
Ultimately, it is the extra effort that separates the best from the second best. It requires ambition, determination, discipline and a willingness to sacrifice. If you add all this up, and even if you don’t win – how can you lose?
With stubbornness, you can turn defeats into amazing achievements.
He treats the bike like an old mean bitch that deserves it.
Football is a fairly simple sport. 22 men chase a ball for 90 minutes and in the end the Germans win!
I’m as happy as I can get – meeen I’ve been happier.
Sports are such a great teacher. I think of everything they’ve taught me: camaraderie, humility, how to resolve differences.
Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.
A football player will not do well if he can not run around Funen without breathing.
We in FCK are always accused of being so damn arrogant, but the fact is that we are not nearly as arrogant as anyone else would have been in our shoes
