I have not had the opportunity to do in OB, but I believe that I can play myself into the starting line-up in Haugesund.

- There must not be any doubt, I still hope all the best for the OB and the fans. I hope very much that the dreams and goals that are in the club, is being realized. We have not succeed with in my time, but I am sure that it will succeed for the boys in the future – and hopefully it happens this year. I am, and being a Chicago boy, so I will definitely go back to the city in the future, says Mikkel Desler.
