- He has his great physique, and then he can go with in the interaction with the other players. And so is he so big that he can hurt defenders, if there are some good posts, says the Danish legend.

- He has, of course, need a team that can put the right balls to him, for he is not the type who just dribbles past three men. But if you like to find a team that can put up some good posts to him, then he really is insanely hard to keep.
