We have changed the team after we won EHF Cup last season. A year before we celebrated DHB Cup trophy. So, we wanted to change team a little bit. We have many young guys from our own school.
I decided to make rejuvenation. He is an ideal leader of the team for the upcoming years. Zachirsson is also injured. It will be very interesting to see what will happen now. We talked with many coaches before him. We wanted a coach who will have total synergy with us, not in some points, but in all things, to be on the line with us. I saw that Dagur had same idea about development the team. I sent him some videos of our matches , than I took flight to Iceland. We have light system — yellow, green and red.
Only if we both have green light, we will take the player. Good thing with him was the he already worked as director on Iceland, I did also the same, but we are both coaches.
We know what other side need. Then, I travelled to Sweden, it was World Champiionship there. You went there with red, now it is green!? New generation with new idea. That was a good decision. We have very good relationship. He is a special guy.
When he wants, he is one of the best on the world. Sometimes his problem is that he closes door for himself. He can gives the game special moments. There is no many players in handball who can do that. And, if he wants he can also play in defense. Look match against Barcelona, he wanted to play in defense in last four attacks, because he wanted to win the game. He was so clever to give pass to Jesper on the line, we got 7m throw instead of long pass, who could be intercepted.
