He is truly a good Number #6 as we call it (defensive midfielder) - he would be the ideal successor for Jordan Henderson at Ajax, if you'd ask me...

That's also what we call it here in Denmark. A number 6 is per definition a holding midfielder. Only the English seem to have got the idea of deploying number 6 in the heart of defence 😉
Glad to learn he's in high regard. I thought it was a coup to get him on a free transfer this summer, but I just didn't know the magnitude of it, having no knowledge about the player beforehand. Sounds like he could be an asset for Brøndby, both here and in real life.
