NICKLAS BENDTNER PROFILE

Nicklas Bendtner

Nicklas Bendtner was Arsenal’s King of Brinksmanship last season. The Danish national team striker was born in Copenhagen (Denmark) at 16 January 1988.

Her favorite position is center forward, but he often played as on the right side forward.

Since he made the breakthrough into the first team in 2008 following the departure of Emmanuel Adebayor, Bendtner is often the key to Arsenal's victory and is highly appraised by Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger. But he was also much criticized for its lack of focus, so often fail to take advantage of golden opportunities to score goals.

Injury cost him the middle part of the 2009/10 season and also hindered his World Cup however he remains a resourceful front man, capable of the creation and execution of goals.

Still in his early 20s, Bendtner should be the basis of the Arsenal attack for years to come.
