AC, The big Dane

Had a job at the Emirates today and while there got talking to a guy who works there in maintenance, a Hammers fan. While discussing our ongoing events I mentioned AC and how we paid so much for such a poor player. He replied, that his partner was from Denmark and when we signed him her dad was on the phone, and as a Copehenagan fan went on and on about how he was going to set the prem alight and be a real star. Then when he wasnt in our side at the beginning of the season, was back on the phone, wondering where AC was, the guy explained that he thought he was injured. The dad was over the moon they got him back at such a profit.

Danish league must be very poor, for people to think he was so good, is all I can say.

Thanks for another thread on it.

No scandinavian club would ever buy him for more than 2 mill pound. Several people have filled up their pockets in this deal, and Milked ccfc. Agent fee was 1 mill alone!

I was told we were tipped off about him from Everton, when we went for a visit aledgedly they were interested in him, but they had a Management change, and that's how we got him, a few big clubs were looking at him and considering an offer....
