Wouldn't have guessed that from his bomb scars performances with us. The guy actually started off as a striker in Danish football and played in goals for a laugh one day. And we threw him into the Champions League after making his debut when we got pumped 0-3 at home by Killie (the game that lost Lorenzo the armband, if I am not mistaken). I mean, if only we had a World Cup medal-winning keeper in the reserves... Step forward, Mr Lionel Charbonnier (or rather sit back doon). It probably would have been a wise move to keep Niemi around the place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably would have been a wise move to keep Niemi around the place. The Advocaat era featured a lot of bizarre decisions, to put it lightly. Someone I knew met Jesper when working in Denmark. Guy spoke positively about the fans and the club in general, but said in hindsight he wasn't ready for the move and Advocaat didn't really speak to him much upon signing him.

miracle 7,789 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 We had no choice but to spend big that season, the entire squad needed rebuilt from the remnants of Walter's team who were mostly over the hill. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
