    This was posted on SaintsWeb by a Danish chap.


    ---

    You Guys are getting an excellent signing.

    Pierre Emile Højbjerg which is his full name (half Danish, half french)
    is by danes at least considered to be as big a talent as Christian Eriksen.

    He is a Classic 8 CM .. on the national side he plays behind Eriksen.
    He is capable with the ball, and will participate in the offensem, with good distribution skills, (has a powerhouse kick and not afraid to try)
    But in my opinion his real strength is in the defense. He does a lot of running and after our best CBs, Daniel Agger(retired) and Simon Kjaer.
    He is by far the best dane in the last few years to break an opponent offense.

    Strong tackler, strong marker, the type you would set to guard the opponent side most creative force.

    He has only played 25 games for Bayern, but you have to remember, he is 20, and his competition was/is Xabi Alonso and Phillip Lahm.

    As a person:
    Very diciplined in his training.
    He is very self confident, without being a **** about it. He is very honest, and he will say it out loud if he thinks the team is playing like s*** and also if he thinks they are the better side.
    He is 20, but acts 30. In my opinion he is future captain materiale, and will be an example to Young players.

    Along with Schmeichel and Eriksen he is by far the most celebrated player in Denmark.
    While we love Eriksen for his creativity, he doesn't show any emotion what so ever. He doesn't seem to have a care in the World, if we win 6-0 or lose.

    That is no the case with Højbjerg, he is by far one of the most passionate players you will get, and that is why the Danish fans at least love him -->

    Everyone's after him apparently, so can't see that one happening.

    How does that work with Pierre-Emile? Presumably we wouldn't be after both. Carvalho will presumably go to one of the 'big boys' anyway.

    Can't see us signing two DMs. Expect Reed to play much more of a part this season and he should get the games considering Europa commitments.
