Messi is such a rare talent and example. Why would I take the risk of signing a short player? Jelert is a defender, and he's not a right-winger like Messi.

Cannavaro? On your ignore list I presume.

Thought he looked really decent at Anfield. Seemed more agile, but also happier to push forward and play the right passes forward, into space

He lost Chiesa for their winner, but in fairness to him it was a very clever run and playing a back 5 you might expect Edwards or Wood to have picked him up so that space in the RB space wasn't left. He was subbed for Fellows 2 mins later on 88 mins and went off with a face like thunder really pissed off about their goal.

Looked lively all night and definitely applying pressure on Mads & Manning. He starts at RB for me against Middlesborough.

Looks like a quality player. Well done to the recruitment team, definitely good enough for the prem.

Personally really unimpressed with Roerslev so i’m glad Jelert looked good last night, should take his place going forwards.

Interestingly Denmark have played Jelert 3 times in the last 2 years with just 1 for Mads.

You'd think they'd have a pretty good idea of the comparative merits of both players.

Spot on.
