Head bandage Hojbjerg is a fuckin badass.
Apparently he was being nicknamed "Zidane" in the changing room at half time after those pirouettes. Bale even patted him on the head.
I put the clip of those pirouettes in the match thread last night.

My favourite memory of him last night though was standing over one of their players lying on the ground who had just put in a filthy tackle and he was daring him to stand up.

Who was it that was insisting when we signed Højbjerg that he wasn’t a defensive midfielder because he couldn’t play deep?When Højbjerg is the deepest CM his positioning is very good. He also knows when to pressure the ball with urgency and when to hold position. Winks should learn a lot from watching his positioning as he (Winks) tends to have a bad starting position on the wrong side and then over compensates in a recovery action often conceding a needless foul.
