Headline: Trash-talk once again
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once again before a Brøndby – AaB game the two managers have a hard time keeping their mouth closed. Again this time it was AaBs manager Erik Hamren who started the “show” with a comment about Brøndby not being good enough to win the title this year. That’s more or less his standard comment in front of every Brøndby – AaB game. Brøndbys GM Northwood normally doesn’t talk a lot in the press but it didn’t take him long to firer back at Hamren this time and his response was not very polite. He told the press that he was not sure if Hamren was good enough to coach in the top level and that he was not the type of manager he wanted in the game.
This will hardly calm down the hype before the game where Brøndby needs to win after finishing the three first games with three ties and only three points. AaB on the other hand is off to great start with three wins and nine points.

Thomas Kahlenberg is still not ready and Jonas Kamper have not impressed in the two last games. That gives Argentine Diego Cochas a chance as the attacking midfielder this week.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Babis Stefanidis today denied all talks about leaving Brøndby for AGF when he signed a new 3-year contract with BIF. He stated his good relationship and opportunity to learn from Morten Skoubo as the main reason to stay in Brøndby. With his future now settled in Brøndby its expected that he will get a bit more playing time in the months to come.

Thomas Kahlenberg is back and that moves Diego Cochas back on the bench. After signing his new contract Babis Stefanidis is selected among the 15 players ready for the game for the first time this year. Brøndby will hope to get away from this match with a minimum of trouble as the second the of the champions league game is coming up just three days after the AGF game. This will also be the first time Leon Andreasen is back in Aarhus after moving to Brøndby this summer.

Brøndby got the easy win they were looking for in Aarhus. It took just 5 minutes for Martin Retov to get the first goal. Azoulay Yohan scored a second in the 27th minute after Morten Skoubos second assist of the day. After that Brøndby went on cruise-control and just controlled the rest of the game. Leon Andreasen got a goal against his old team in the start of the second half when he out-jumped the AGF defends on a corner and headed the ball in to the corner of the goal. Thomas Kahlenberg was also back with a bang winning man of the mach. He had six key passes and also got an assist.

Headline: Brøndby line-up for second leg of Panathinaikos AO game
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
18 Brøndby players was ready in Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen) this morning to board the plane to Greece for without a question the most important Brøndby game of the season. Not because Brøndby has any hope of winning the Champions League title but for the financial aspect. If Brøndby manages to squeeze past Panathinaikos AO they will be guaranteed an income of more then £5mil this season in price money and TV-revenue. That’s more then double the amount Brøndby can normally expect to earn in a single season.
Defends is the same as the previous games and Thomas Kahlenberg is be back from injury as AMC. German Denis and Daniel Agger will be added as substitutes together with an extra goalkeeper (Dimitrov). Peter Graulund is also out and replaced by Babis Stefanidis who just signed a new contract earlier this week.
Brøndby will start out in the 4-3-1-2 formations but with Panathinaikos AO having the away-goal from the first leg, Brøndby will have to score a goal if they want to move ahead. Expect them to switch to 3-3-1-3 if necessary.

Headline: More big transfers
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The big clubs in Europe keep spending big money before they have to announce the list of the 25 players ready to play in the Champions League. Today Chelsea used another £30mil on top of the £93mil from last season. The new player in Stamford Bridge is Dutch attacking midfielder Wesley Sneijder. He went from Ajax to Valencia back in 2004/5 and was named in the “Team of the season” in Spain last season. Now he moves to England to play his football in London.
The other big transfer of the day is journey-man Javier Saviola and this time he sets a new transfer record. He came back to Barcelona after the loan to Monaco in 2004/5 only to be sold to Inter for £23mil. In Inter he only got 14 games (7 goals) before he moved to the other big Milano club AC Milan. They paid £33mil to get him. That’s 44 games ago and now he is on the move again. The buyer is Barcelona!!! They now pay more then double the price the got for him back in 2005/6. The price is an amazing £53mil with a monthly wage to the player of £170.000. That’s still a long way from the £425.000 Joaquin and Zambrotta is paid weakly with their current contracts.

Side note:
I must say that I really don’t like this Saviola transfer. The rapid moves is acceptable but unlikely, but for him to return to his original club for more then double the amount he was sold for in the first place is just not happening. I cannot say I have ever seen this happen in real life. It of cause happens that players return to their original club after a short time, but that is normally when they bust and the re-buy price is never bigger then the original transfer.
This was the first “mistake” by the game I noticed in 15 hours of play so I guess I can live with it.

Champions League qual round 3, Leg 2:
Panathinaikos AO - Brøndby FT 1-1 / (HT 1 – 0)

In a must win game for Brøndby they were off to a bad start when MR Martin Retov had to leave the field already after 21 minutes with a minor injury. He was replaced by Jonas Kamper. After 32 minutes it got a lot worse. A harmless free kick by Panathinaikos in to the penalty arrear was fumbled over the goal line by Karim Zaza for an own goal. Now Brøndby needed a goal just to tie and get extra-time. They stayed in their normal 4-3-1-2 formation until the 59th minute. At that time manager Thomas Northwood decided it was time to gamble and changed formation to 3-3-1-3. Defender Asbjoern Sennels was taken off the field and replaced by attacker Babis Stefanidis. Morten Skoubo was also taken off (with a small injury) and German Denis replaced him up in front. The reward of the gamble came after 71 minutes of play. A free kick from midfield was sent in to the Panathinaikos penalty arrear. The cleanse felt to Leon Andreasen who took the shot from 30yds out between friends and enemies and it went in all the way down in the right bottom corner of the goal. 1-1 and the two teams were back to even. Brøndby changed back to their normal formation for the remaining of the game and nothing much happened in the last 15 minutes of play. Panathinaikos had the biggest chances in the first half of extra time without getting the all important goal. In the second half of extra time Panathinaikos suddenly found themselves under pressure when they had a man shown his second yellow card and was reduced to jus 10 men. They changed formation to only have one attacker and Brøndby took advantage and moved back to playing with 3 attackers in the last 5 minutes. It didn’t help any and the game was to be decided by penalties.
Five players from each team and if no winner is found 1 player from each team until a winner is found. The same player can not kick twice.
Brøndby won the draw and decide to kick first.

Dan Anthon Johansen (penalty rating: 15) takes the first kick.
Starts his run-up and scores without problem

Brøndby 1 – Panathinaikos 0
Konstantinou (penalty rating: 16) is first out for Panathinaikos and he make no mistakes.
Brøndby 1 – Panathinaikos 1
Next up for Brøndby is Babis Stefanidis (penalty rating: 12). His second nationality is Greek but he shows no sign of the pressure and puts Brøndby back in front.
Brøndby 2 – Panathinaikos 1
Dimitriadis (penalty rating: 15) is solid as a rock and Karim Zaza is not even close to saving the ball.
Brøndby 2 – Panathinaikos 2
German Denis (penalty rating: 12) is next on the spot for Brøndby. He only takes two steps back and delivers a weak shot. Saved!!
Brøndby 2 – Panathinaikos 2
Panathinaikos South African defender Nasief Morris (penalty rating: 8) gives the Greek the lead for the second time today and adds pressure on Brøndby.
Brøndby 2 – Panathinaikos 3
Bashkim Ziberi (penalty rating: 11) must score for Brøndby to have a chance of coming back and puts the ball in the middle of the goal when the keeper dives early.
Brøndby 3 – Panathinaikos 3
This looks like a mistake from Panathinaikos. Defensive midfielder Papadimitriou shows why he only has a penalty rating of 2. Zaza has no problem saving his attempt.
Brøndby 3 – Panathinaikos 3
Jonas Kamper (penalty rating: 13) puts the pressure back on Panathinaikos with a goal on the 5th and final penalty.
Brøndby 4 – Panathinaikos 3
Panathinaikos biggest star Emmanuel Olisadebe (penalty rating: 14) now must score or the game will be over. But he shows why he is the highest paid player in Greek football and score safely.
Brøndby 4 – Panathinaikos 4
Its now one player from each team until a winner is found. The 12.000 spectator is getting full value for their money.
Thomas Kahlenberg (penalty rating: 8) steps up first for Brøndby. He shows why clubs around the world has started to take notice of him and puts Brøndby back on top.
Brøndby 5 – Panathinaikos 4
Konstantinidis (penalty rating: 3) now must score to keep Panathinaikos in the game. He steps up and…..

Blast the ball over the bar.

BRØNDBY WINS.

Brøndby moves on to the group stage of the Champions League with a 7-6 win after extra time and penalties.

It’s a long time since I have been talking to my screen but this game was a real roller-coaster ride and had me screaming at the small dots running around in 2-D on my screen. From the early goal by Panathinaikos AO, the surprise equalizer, overtime, the red card, the missed penalty, the save by Zaza and finally the joy of victory.
Now I remember why I love CM/FM…………

Headline: Brøndby sign new AMC
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the Danish transfer deadline coming up in just one week, Brøndby today decided to upgrade their roster before the upcoming Champions League. The new player added to the Brøndby team is Algerian international Mehdi Guerrouad. He comes from Danish second division club Viborg with a price tag of £250k.
Experts around Danish football see this as the first move by Brøndby to preparer for the departure of Thomas Kahlenberg. He got one year left on his contract and has already announced that he is not interested in renewing it. That will force Brøndby to try to sell him in the near future if the want to get any money for him. Selling him look like an easy task with clubs like Lazio, Aston Villa, Newcastle and Everton already showing interest.

With the first six weeks of play completed its time to take a look at the standing. FC Nordsjælland came up from the second best division this year, and still has to win a match this year but with three draws they are still only 1 point behind the rest of the pack. Three teams only got four points after six games. Silkeborg is the only other team without a win and Frem is the other team promoted from the lower league. In the top four teams have opened up a small gap. AB is a bit of a surprise but the other three teams is all expected to be in the top. Brøndby is the only team without a loss this year.

With the purchase of Saviola for more then £50mil Barcelona had to sell some players to get some cash. That coasted Samuel Etoó his job. He will not be to upset when he sees his new pay check from Chelsea of £240.000 pr month. That’s close to $5mil pr year.
Real Madrid picked up one of the brightest young stars of European football when they paid Zaragoa £16.25mil for Portuguese midfielder Tiago.

Brøndby is forced to make a few changes before tomorrow’s game. Thomas Kahlenberg was injured in training today and will be out for a week with a sprained wrist. Diego Cochas will move back in as AMC and Mehdi Cuerrouad will get his first taste of Brøndby first team football from the bench. On the bench Daniel Agger replaces Sebastian Svärd.

Round 7/33:
Brøndby – FC Midtjylland FT 4-0 / (HT 1-0)

Again Brøndby got off to a fast start when Skoubo used his speed and scored on a counterattack after just 6 minutes. That was the only goal in the first half but the fans only had to wait 15 sec for the first goal of the second half. Five passes was all it took before Diego Cochas got his first goal for Brøndby. That broke FC Midtjylland completely and Brøndby got two more easy goals by Retov and Dan Anton Johansen (penalty) before full time. When the game was over FC Midtjylland had not had a single shot at goal.
After today’s game Brøndby finds themselves back on the top of Danish football one point clear of the field. They continued their hot-run with the second 4-0 win in just three days and can now look back on four wins in a row before going on a mini-break because of international games coming up.
Brøndby Game MVP: Martin Retov (rating: 10)

AaB – FC København 0-1

Brøndbys manager Thomas Northwood had a hard time hiding this disappointment when he talked to Onside.dk just minutes after he left the meeting with the Brøndby board. The emergency meeting was called after it was clearer the Morten Skoubo once again had turned down a contract offer from Brøndby due to the low basic wage offered by the club. Skoubo asks for close to £36.000 pr month while the Brøndby board only will allow £22.000 and after tonight’s meeting it was clear that they had no intentions to change their mind. Brøndby will risk loosing some of their key players in the months to come if they don’t agree to sign new contracts soon. Its unknown if Northwood will give the board an ultimatum or try to work out deals with the players inside today’s financial structure.

Headline: Thomas Northwood’s first games with Denmark
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The two first games for Denmark under new manager Thomas Northwood ended with a win and a draw. Northwood was very conservative picking out his team but had to make some tough choices when a lot Denmark’s best attackers were hit by injury. Three Brøndby players were selected and Dan Anthon Johansen got his two first internationals.
The first of the two games was a home game against Hungary. It was an ugly game with 11 yellow and 2 red cards but none of the teams managed to score a goal. Denmark was the only team with shots on goal (10) but none of them got over the line.
The second game was an away game against Slovakia and a must win if Denmark still wanted to have a chance to qualify. Northwood was saved by Fulham attacking midfielder Claus Jensen who scored two times. Claus Jensen was not even selected in the team of 25 players travelling to the mach but was added later when another played was out to injury.
Denmark’s have temporarily taken over the lead in group 7 from Turkey. Denmark has 14 points, one more point then the Turks but also a game more played. Denmark’s next game will be in one month against Faeroe Islands.

Just three days before the biggest game ever in Brøndby against Real Madrid, the players have to focus on the domestic league and newly promoted Frem. Thomas Kahlenberg has recovered from his injury but is still not fit for fight and the Brøndby team has decided to spare him to the Real game. Some of the Brøndby players are already starting to feel the hard program. They have played 15 games already and will have to play 40 more before the season is over. Thomas Northwood will have to find a way to rest some key players soon.

Round 8/33:
Frem - Brøndby FT 0-4 / (HT 0-2)

For the 3rd time in a row Brøndby got away with a 4-0 win. Frem got of to the best start and was awarded a penalty after just 10 minutes of play when Allan Olesen stopped a Frem player in the penalty arrear. Karim Zaza took a gamble and remained standing in the middle of that goal and could easily save the poor taken penalty. After that it was all Brøndby. Morten Skoubo got the first goal after 16 minutes with the help from Yohan on another Brøndby-fast break. Just before halftime Martin Retov pressed a Frem defender to make an own-goal to make it 2-0 at half time. Brøndby used all their three subs early in the second half to try to give some key players some rest before the Wednesdays meeting with Real Madrid. That worked out fine as both Daniel Agger and Mehdi Guerrouad scored a goal.
Brøndby now suddenly finds them self back on the top of Danish football league. A strange turn of events considering the poor start to the season.
Brøndby Game MVP: Allan Olesen (rating: 9)

Headline: A closer look at Real Madrid
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Spanish titleholders don’t need any presentation. They have upgraded for £46mil before this season but still have well known names as Beckham, Carlos, Raul, and Zidane on their roster. Joaquin and Xabi Alonso are the new stars in Madrid. Brøndby is chanceless in the two matches against a Real Madrid team that could play their backups and still be heavy favourites. For many of the Brøndby players this will be the only time they will ever play on this big a stage. If Brøndby can not expect to get a win on the field against Real Madrid, they will be laughing all the way to the bank. It will be a surprise if Brøndby don’t set a new audience and audience revenue record when Real comes to town.
Expected Real Madrid starting line-up:
Code:

Only a few surprises were to be found in the Brøndby line-up for the game against mighty Real Madrid. On the field Thomas Kahlenberg gets back in his first game since 26/8 and Babis Stefanidis takes the place of second attacker next to Morten Skoubo. Azoulay Yohan have had a great start to the season but has looked very tired on the practise field the last few days and the 19year old player is just not in a physical shape to start today’s mach. He will start the game on the bench. Of the 18 Brøndby players ready for tonight’s game 7 of them is not Danish.

Champions League Group A Round 1:
Brøndby – Real Madrid FT 1-2 / (HT 1 – 1)

The 31262 on the stands feared the worst when Fernando Morientes scored already after 1:04 on a well executed attack. Luckily Brøndby didn’t panic and managed to pull back even after just 17 minutes on a long shot by Martin Retov. The rest of the half was one long press by the Madrid team but they never managed to get the second goal. Brøndby started the second half by pulling Morten Skoubo and Bashkim Ziberi out, who both had had days against the solid opponents. They were replaced by Azoulay Yohan and Diego Cochas. The game was decided after 55 minutes when Morients got his second of the day when he scored on his own rebound from a header on a cross from Stankovic. Brøndby was never close in the remaining 35 minutes of the game and Real winning the shots-stat 25-6 gives a good picture of the game.
In the other game in the group PSG won 2-1 over Ukrainian Dinamo Kiev.
Brøndby Game MVP: Per Nielsen (rating: 8)

Brøndby today won the Danish championship with a convincing 7-0 at home over Herfølge.
Johan Elmander(15 min.) 1 - 0
Thomas Kahlenberg(20 min.) 2 - 0
Per Nielsen(37 min.) 3 - 0
Daniel Agger(45 min.) 4 - 0
Martin Retov(50 min.) 5 - 0
Thomas Kahlenberg(52 min.) 6 - 0
Morten Skoubo(84 min.) 7 – 0

They are now 11 points clear with just three round left to play. This was the first championship for Brøndby since 2002 and their 10th overall. It was also their first win with former Danish international Michael Laudrup as manager.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everybody knew it would be difficult for Brøndby to get a win on the field against Real Madrid but they still came away with something from the game. £575.000 is a new gate receipts record in Brøndby. The old record of £525.000 was from last year when Liverpool visited in the second knockout round in the UEFA-cup. 31626 was also the highest attendance this season but not a new Brøndby record. The record is from the 2005/6 season when 31733 showed up at Brøndby stadium to see the league match against FC København. That was just 15 persons short of a complete sell-out. The average attendance to a Brøndby game has increased from 20085 in 2004/5 to 23568 after the two first month of play this year.

The biggest challenge for this game was to refocus on the domestic league after the big game against Real Madrid. Daniel Agger will replace Asbjørn Sennels on DL for his first start of the season. Sennels will not be among the 15 players selected for today’s game and will get some much needed rest. Another player who will not get playing time his week is Peter Garulund. Complains to manager Thomas Northwood during the week was not enough to convince him to move Graulund in to the starting line-up. A play who took another approach to the problem of not being in the first team this week was Diego Cochas. This week he has announced that he is prepared to wait for a first team opportunity in Brøndby if necessary. The will stay patient and work hard and hope that is enough to take him in to the first team. He was rewarded with a place on the bench for this week’s game.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brøndby manager Thomas Northwood was cornered by a journalist from Danish newspaper Politiken before today’s game against SønderjyskeE. The question was once again about Thomas Kahlenberg and his future in Brøndby. With clubs like Atletico Madrid, Parma, Lazio and Newcastle showing interest Thomas Northwood said that he would be surprised if Kahlenberg decided to stay.
The player in question was not available for a comment but has earlier announced his joy playing for Brøndby and has said not to have any immediate plans for the future. Thomas Kahlenberg is once again looking to have an excellent season and currently have an average rating of 8.46.

Round 9/33:
SønderjyskeE - Brøndby FT 1-3 / (HT 0-1)

If Thomas Kahlenberg was aware of the comment from manager Thomas Northwood before the start of the game is unknown but it only took him 1:11 to get everyone’s attention on the field. A long pass from Allan Olesen opened up the SønderjyskeE defends completely and Thomas Kahlenberg could easily score his first league goal of the season. In the second half Brøndby pulled an injured Martin Retov and a tired Morten Skoubo off the field and replaced them with Babis Stefanidis and David Marek. It only took Stefanidis 14 minutes to start paying off for his new contract. He scored with a header on a cross from just Marek. The next goal came just 3 minutes later and once again it was Stefanidis. Jackson was given some playing time instead of Leon Andreasen but he could not prevent Sønderjyske from getting a goal with just 10 minutes left to play. This was the first domestic league goal scored on Brøndby and Karim Zaza in 584 minutes of play!!! The last team to score a goal on Brøndby was Silkeborg back at 5/8

With only three days between games the hard schedule has now started to show on the Brøndby players. Martin Retov is unavailable after picking up a shoulder injury that will keep him out of the game for a week. Dan Anthon Johansen will play despite needing a rest but Asbjørn Sennels is still not ready. Azoulay Yohan will also have to rest this week. That will give some new players a chance to show they deserve a place in the first team. Mehdi Guerrouad will get his first start ever for Brøndby after his move from Viborg. He will be the AM R this week. With two goals in three minutes after coming on as a substitute last week Babis Stefanidis also gets a chance to start a game. On the bench David Marek is found again this week but this time together with debutant Wellington. He was promoted last week after some strong games for the reserves and will now get a chance to show his stuff in the big league.

Once again Brøndby have to move around players due to injury and fatigue. Sennels is back but Dan Anton Johansen is now listed as not fit for match and they will have to go to the bench. Both Martin Retov and Azoulay Yohan are back in the starting line-up and Wellington gets one more chance.

Side Note:
I have a policy not to start a player if his condition is rated lower then 90. Only key-players in very important games will make me change that rule. In some cases I keep them on the bench for a late appearance but prefer to let them rest completely.
I also just received the player-tracker Frogman have made (Thanks Frogman and sorry about your dynasty) and found a lot of players on the reserve and U-18 that deserves a chance in the first team in the months to come.

no problem, and don't be sorry, I'll get over it, I guess... If that darn RAM can only arrive soon and start a new career. I can't get into the current temporary career, knowing I'll dump it to the garbage can very soon...

About the spreadsheet, yeah, it's not only good to track players' long term skill changes, but it also helped me a lot in the past in seeing who comes out of the group and who has potential. It can really give you a better "whole team" view...

After scoring 15 goal in four games in the national league Brøndby have now played two games in a row without scoring a single goal. That didn’t happen one single time last season. This time Brøndby pressed for the goal most of the match with 13 shots but only three on goals. Esbjerg didn’t produce must (only 3shots all game) but had the game MVP in keeper Rune Pedersen. Wellington and Diego Cochas both got 45 minutes of play but didn’t manage to rise above the mass. Despite only getting two points in the last two games Brøndby is still in first place in the league.
Brøndby Game MVP: Per Nielsen (rating: 8)

Headline: A closer look at Dinamo Kiev
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dinamo Kiev played in the champions league in the 04/05 and 06/07 season but have still not made it thru the first group stage. In the 04/05 season they made it all the way to the UEFA Cup quarterfinal. The team from Ukraine has a love for South American players and currently have five under contract. Four Brazilian players with Diego Rincon the best-known name. They also have a player from Colombia on their roster be he will not play this week due to injury. If Brøndby wants to have any chance to make it to the next round in the Champions League this season they must get at least 1 point in this game. The bookmakers have Dinamo Kiev as favourites.

For the second game in a row Brøndby has to make major changes in the starting line-up. Leon Andreasen is not in any shape to start this game and will be sidelined. That will give Brazilian midfielder Jackson his first start of the season. The biggest blow to Brøndbys winning chances is that Morten Skoubo will miss his first start of the season. He has not been scoring that frequently this season but his is still Brøndbys top guy up front. It’s a surprise that young Wellington gets another chance in this important a game as he has not accomplish much in the two games he has played this season. Brøndby must not loss this game. If the end up with 0 points after two games it will be almost impossible for them to finish second in the group and advance and the third place to get in to the UEFA cup will also be difficult to get.

Champions League Group A Round 2:
Dinamo Kiev - Brøndby FT 1-1 / (HT 1 – 0)

12.000 of the 16.000 seat was full when Andriy Shevchenkos old club played its first home game in this years Champions League. They just had to wait 15 minutes for the first goal. The Brøndby defends was caught sleeping after a corner and leaves Maxim Shatskikh unmarked in the penalty arrear and he has no problem scoring. Dinamo has the ball most of the time in the first half and is moving it around a lot faster then Brøndby but the score remains 1-0 after 45 minutes of play. In the second half the paten is the same but Brøndby now manage to get in a few dangerous counterattacks. After 63 minutes Brøndby manager Thomas Northwood decided to top the team and made three substitutions. Dan Anton Johanes had an awful day and was taken off together with Jackson and Yohan. That made room for Daniel Agger, Leon Andreasen and Morten Skoubo to come in and try to make a difference. After 80 minutes of play that was just what happened. Brøndby got a corner and it was taken by Leon Andreasen. He found Skoubo in the arrear and he powered in a header to tie the game again. Both team had chances to win the match in the last 10 minutes but the final score remained 1-1.
In the second game of the group, Real Madrid destroyed ParisSG 5-0.

Headline: A closer look at finance
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brøndby was rewarded £100.000 for the draw in Champions League against Dinamo Kiev. They still have to generate another £10mil if they want to better the result from 2006 when they had a total income of £19.8mil. On the expense side Brøndby it looks like the club is spending a little more money this year. £7.8 mil has already gone out and that only leaves £3.5mil before they reach last years spending. It’s the £3.5mil spend on new players and sign on fees together with close to £1mil in tax money that have ran up this costs this year. Brøndby is still looking to make a profit this year (currently £1.5mil) but the £8.4mil from last year looks like a difficult target.

Headline: Brøndby line-up for FC København game
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Denmark the games between these two teams is just as important as the Real Madrid – Barcelona derby in Spain, the old-firm Celtic-Rangers in Scotland, PSV-Ajax in Holland and ManU-Arsenal in England. This is the match between the two biggest and most ambitious clubs in Danish football. There is just 30 minutes between the two clubs stadiums with FC København playing their home games on the Danish national stadium (Parken) in the centre of Copenhagen. The two teams have already played each other 13 times with Brøndby winning 4, 6 ties and 3 wins to FC København. Three of the last four games have finished in a tie. Brøndby can for the first time in a few weeks start the game with their expected best line-up. The only player missing from the “normal” line-up is Asbjørn Sennels who need a rest. His replacement Daniel Agger has shown good improvement the last few weeks and looks like the player who can fill in for Per Nielsen the day he decided to retire. This is the 3rd home game for Brøndby in a row and with only 2 points in the two first games they need a win now. FC København is looking shape this season and has only lost one game.

Round 11/33:
Brøndby – FC København FT 0-1 / (HT 0-0)

A record 31735 showed up for the derby and that’s a new Brøndby record and just 13 short of a sell-out. That was not a surprise as their have been more then 30.000 to all the previous five Brøndby home games against FC København. The average attenence for Brøndby is around 21.000.
It looked like a tie game for a long time. Both teams had chances but it was also clearer that they both knew their opponents strengths and weaknesses and didn’t allow many chances. The game was decided on a fantastic long shot in to the top left corner from 35yds out. Unluckily for Brøndby it was Norwegian international and FC København playmaker Magne Hoseth who got the goal after 78 minutes of play. Brøndby had a shot on the post by Martin Retov in the remaining 12 minutes but they didn’t come any closer then that and had to leave the field for the 4th time in a row without a victory. Brøndbys longest streak without winning is from 2005/6 when they went 7 games without winning a game.
Brøndby Game MVP: Per Nielsen (rating: 8)

Headline: Brøndby change policy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brøndby today announced that they have decided to change their player policy. From having 31 players in the first team Brøndby will cut the first team down to 23 players. Instead of having 8 players in the first team that have still not started a single game this season they are now moved down to the reserve team and will get a chance to get some valuable match practice.
The players affected by this change of policy are:

GK Dimitar Dimitrov
He is still the backup keeper to Karim Zaza but will now have a chance to see some action in the reserves team. Brøndby is only allowed to have four substitutes in the Danish league and don’t use one for a keeper therefore Dimitrov is currently only active (on the bench) in Champions Leagues games.

DM Stefan Schmidt
Came from AaB the year Thomas Northwood took over as manager in Brøndby and have never been a first team regular. Have only started 14 games in four seasons and have still not been selected for a single mach this year.

M LC Jesper Mikkelsen
Has never showed his potential in Brøndby and has requested a transfer. Maybe a visit to the reserves can get him back on track.

M C Kostas Valancauskas
A young player who came to Brøndby before this season. Will need to develop a lot to get back in the first team.

F L Martin Beck Andersen
Have been away from Brøndby on loan the two previous years but this year he have to compete with players like Skoubo, Yohan, Stefanidis, Wellington and Graulund for a spot in the first team. Right now he is not even close and will get al lot more out of playing in the reserves team.

F LC Marc Olsen
Another young attacker with little chance of getting playing time in the first team.

M C Kim Daugaard
The 33 year old midfielder is currently injured and have this season lost his place in the first team to Leon Andreasen. He got lots of routine but it’s unlikely he will play a major role in Brøndby first team again.

When Wellington recovers from injury one more player will moved down. That leaves 23 (+1 injured9 players in the first team.

The reserve team players a reserves team tournament together with 11 other teams. They are currently second after 7 round of play with three wins, four ties and no losses.

The Brøndby first team will after today look like this:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brøndby now only got three months to find a way to get Martin Retov to sign a new contract. His current contract is set to expire 31/12 and he will be free to leave Brøndby stadium without Brøndby getting any kind of compensation. Brøndby manager Thomas Northwood have tried several times to get a new get a new deal done but have not been able to meet the plays wage demands. It looks like it will be Jonas Kamper who will take over as MR when Retov despairs.
