Aside from a couple of big teams in Denmark, the rest must be what league 2 standard? The fact that Ronnie has a good record their shows how bad it is.
Yeah, but that's just our assumptions - made from a position of not knowing anything much about Danish football.
Just my take on it but here’s how I view the current Danish Superliga clubs based on who I see their English “equivalent” as :
Aalborg BK (Portsmouth) Brøndby IF (Norwich or WBA) FC Copenhagen (Crystal Palace) FC Midtjylland (Burnley or Bournemouth) Lyngby BK (Fleetwood) SønderjyskE (Birmingham or Rotherham) Viborg IF (Gillingham) Silkeborg (Bristol Rovers) Vejle BK (Plymouth) Randers FC (Wigan Athletic) FC Nordsjælland (Luton or Charlton) Odense BK (Sunderland)
My local Danish League One Club (Fremad Amager) would be the equivalent of someone like Cambridge City or Northampton Town I guess.
Two weeks before the start of the season. He's a professional footballer he should at least be able to have a 30 minute run out as I'm not aware of him having any injuries.

But he's only had a few days proper pre-season training.
If you played him today, there's a huge risk of injury if he's not ready.
Think some very unfair comments have been made about his record in Denmark.
Let's forget the second tier season where he scored 25 goals in 27 games for a second and focus on what he did in the top flight over there.
Silkeborg (July to January) - 20 appearances - 12 goals
Midtjylland (January to end of season) - 15 appearances - 6 goals
He scored 18 in 35. Against opponents like Copenhagen and Brondby. He also had a period between 2012 and 2014 where he scored 29 in 57 for Randers against the same competition. He's no mug.
The only reservation I have is that he's left Denmark before (for France) and was a flop there. I'm sure he's viewing this season as a chance to prove some people wrong.

I see 'a bit' of Elfsborg. We'd struggle in the Championship.

The only thing you can take from his record in Denmark is that he isn't shit nor is he so good its nailed on he will score goals here.
I am more concerned as to why he was unselectable last season and why, if his presence at preseason was so vital why he came back so late and wasn't available today.

He's nearly 32 too, not exactly a lot of time to adapt.
He hasn’t been seen on the pitch for enough minutes to make any assessment by supporters.
Everything else is supposition.
But when he's come onto the pitch for the small cameos he's been given he doesn't touch the ball at all. You also have to question why he's not been given any time at all
I think he will be gone. We need to replace Aneke and it's not Davison. No point having Schwartz, Davison and Washington as cover for the first two so be surprised if he stays.
In my best Kevin Keegan voice….. I would love it if he came in and got 20 goals this season, love it!!!!😂. But none of us really has a clue what’s going to happen with this fella.

You don't play a player who's not yet fit.
If he doesn't appear next week then something is wrong
I would have given him game time today, that’s probably one of the reason why I’m not a football manager

I hope we do not have any more Danish duds

See, this is what we need, puns. Not meaningful additions to our squad to get us out a pub league...
