It's very interesting discussions, but feel like it's unfair to judge players/managers when they take online critique close to heart. The line of "I don't read the papers" isn't applicable anymore, and it's virtually impossible to "mute" all content around yourself when you're that big, right?

I've found that Danish is only really "needed":
-at a workplace, even when English is the corporate language
-at a house party, because then you're usually surrounded by childhood friends who tend to group up, and so if you at least understand Danish it'll help you to fit in a bit better

Vísir journalist Óskar Ófeigur Jónsson has compiled a set of stats to sum up Åge Hareide's reign in charge of the national team vs other managers post-2000.

Interestingly, Hareide's team has the 3rd highest win perc and in number of goals scored. A bit lower for goals conceded, sitting in 6th.
