Høgmo ptarmigan – Dagsavisen

NTB talks with Høgmo as he is on his way out of the store after purchasing pet foods.

He makes for the very first time that A- exercising what football success means for the Norwegian people.

– There is a tremendous enthusiasm and happy people all the way who have appreciated our performance last week. There is everything from the smallest barely learned to talk to women and men up to 90 years to come with congratulations. It is yet another confirmation of the enormous strong position football has in Norway, says Høgmo said.

Now he on three days’ grouse outside Tromsø. He has with him the experienced dog Figo who perhaps should get between name Berget hereafter.

Norway can catch up to the European Championships under its own power with victories over Malta (h) and Italy (b ) in October. It can – albeit unlikely – be directly ticket that best group three.

The most probable is, however, that Norway has to meet the replay in November. The winner goes on.

Hands-on

Høgmo have a few weeks before he takes out a new troop. – We have had a small core of players throughout. It has increasingly become a bit bigger. Now there will be continuity in the future, because we believe that many of those who are inside, is beginning to stabilize at a fairly high level. But that’s not to say that it is exactly the same platoon. There will always be opportunities to settle into the squad for form players, says Høgmo.

– I note that there are many paths (EM), but we have been very skilled to prepare for the next game. We see how close it is in international football. It is only to glance at the results Tuesday. Apropos Malta and Italy, then Italy won 1-0 both times.

Chance

Alexander Söderlund goal nightmare in the national team continues. He says without goals for Norway, is an enigma for all chances.

– It is a coincidence that he has not scored for the national team. That he stood with two or three goals against Sweden, I would say is random. We had the form player Adama Diomande which was taken out (decay) which has competence. We’ll see how his injury situation is, says Høgmo.

national team reports that Joshua King is back in training with Bournemouth this week. If he is relevant to the fight against Crystal Palace is less clear.

While Høgmo only squint against the autumn sun is everyday harder colleagues Erik Hamrén (Sweden, two losses) and Morten Olsen (Denmark, twice 0-0). The last few days have been miserable football statistics for the neighbors.

– The only sure thing in this business is that it goes up and down. It’s about not dig down when it goes a bit heavy and not take off when it goes well, says Høgmo.
