Reaction to Nicklas Bendtner playing at Oriel Park was very predictable

Lord Bendtner

It takes a flop of Nicklas Bendtner’s attitude to evoke such a reaction just by being present.

Thought you had seen the last of Nicklas Bendtner? Yeah, we’re not going to lie, so did we.

The former Arsenal striker is known for three things – being a monstrous Premier League flop, once claiming that he was one of the best strikers in the world and a phenomenal fan chant by the Gooners that unfortunately never caught on.

“As soon as you walked in the door, I could tell you were a Dane of distinction, a real big Bendtner, Hey big Bendtner!”

Solid gold.

This isn't easy, even for Arsenal fans https://t.co/Y3EDiaRPTT

After seven LONG seasons at Arsenal, Bendtner went on a loan spree having spells at Birmingham, Sunderland and Juventus before being shipped off permanently to Wolfsburg in 2014. He was released from the Bundesliga outfit early, spent a season at Nottingham Forrest and in 2017 he signed for Rosenborg.

League of Ireland side Dundalk drew the Norwegian club in the second qualifying round of the Champions League, which meant that Oriel Park was graced by Lord Bendtner’s presence on Wednesday evening.

The Lillywhites ground out a 1-1 draw in the first leg with Tore Reginiussen’s effort cancelling out Dave McMillan’s opener. However, even before the game kicked off, there was a lot of buzz around Bendtner’s presence. then when the game was on, we’re pretty sure chants of “Nicklas Bendtner, you’re a wanker” started up.
