My Take
I have a soft spot for Bendtner. At 194 cm he was a genuine aerial threat, a striker whose headers carried real menace, and his unfiltered self-belief, divisive as it was, never put me off. There is something refreshingly human about a player who lets you see the highs and the messy lows alike. The Copenhagen-born forward courted headlines on and off the pitch, and that lack of polish is exactly why I root for him.
