No he would not. They are very different players. If I wasnt worried about his injury record, I wouldnt mind seeing him next to Bruno, exactly because he is different. He offers the dribbling that Bruno lacks.
He has everything Bruno has and more and so could replace him as well as playing besides him. Wouldn’t worry about injuries, he’s obviously been very unlucky with arthritis after surgery but doesn’t seem injury prone
No. Do you think Bruno is at their level?
I think they could play together too. Mainly due to Damsgaard being a very complete player. He will be at City, Liverpool or Arsenal soon enough. No doubt.
Shades of Modric in his first season at Spurs.
No, but I also don't think a player who had 1 G + A in 29 games in 2022-2023 and 2 G + A in 25 games in 2023-2024 is better than a player who had 28 G+ A in 48 and 28 in 59 games in his last two seasons.
Haha, ok. Thank you for that insightful contribution
Clearly not. Bruno is a good goalscorer. Damsgaard has 4 league goals in +100 league appearances since leaving the Danish league.
True, though he only played 30-40 of those games while fit in the prem
Damsgaard did well during Euro 21 and is on a good run of form now. If that's enough to be rated as better than Bruno and 'world class potential', then I have absolutely no knowledge about football. I've seen all of his games for the national team, and I think it would be very generous to define his general performances as more than average. He has 4 goals in 31 appearances. Two of those were in an 8-0 victory over Moldova.
He is a decent player, no doubt. But some of the comments about him here are wildly exaggerated.

Can’t believe the brass balls on that @Tallis guy, coming in here with his fancy stats and facts to back up his point.
Been brilliant this season but probably looking upwards rather than downwards if he were to leave tbh 
A real driving force in an attacking midfield role and stepped it up to now realise the potential he had shown in his early career.

I think there is only one poster on here who rates him higher than Bruno to be fair.
I sure hope so.
