Arsenal’s Danish striker Nicklas Bendtner has revealed how he has been taking time out to offer advice and help fellow countryman Jonas Rasmussen settle in at the club.
Rasmussen joined the Gunners last summer from French side Auxerre, and Bendtner admits he has been watching the 16 year old for the youth teams, and has been offering some confidence boosting words.
“I have seen him play several times, and i have tried to pass on some good advice.”
“Always keep faith in your talents, work hard and show you are dedicated in training.”
Jonas is entering his second year as an Arsenal player, and the coming campaign promises to be his most productive yet after finishing the season in Steve Bould’s Under 18 side.
Although he is yet to score for the Academy team, he marked his Under 16 debut with a goal, and has already played with Nicklas during the 2-1 win over the Colorado Rapids in March.
Whilst Bendtner junior is currently on his holidays, the 20 year olds father Thomas has rebuffed claims he is set for a transfer to AC Milan. Italian sports newspaper Corriere dello Sport reported last week that Milan were ready to make an offer for the young forward.
“It is not something we have heard a sound about,” “Not at all.”
Both Nicklas and Jonas look set for bright futures with the club.

hears Jonas has a bit of a bad attitude tho, Nicklas will make it at Arsenal though, a really bright prospect..
what positon does rasmussen play
He’s a Midfielder mate..
Any forward position. He has featured mostly on the right wing, but can also play as a striker or in central midfield.
J, any update on Nasri, surely this saga will end tomorrow
Bright future for Bendtner. It’s also good his father has his best interests at heart too and isn’t swayed by money.
Great
SO……. You seen the New kit today……………….. (where is Samir Nasri)
he name sounds gay
Slightly worried about Bendtner’s long term future- he has said in the past that he dreams of playing for Milan or Real Madrid…by the time he establishes himself at Arsenal we could be in for another player linked constantly to those classless clubs
Why is the clock always 1 hour behind? Steve’s comment was said at 8:13pm, not 7:13 – Just curious :)
Hey J this is off topic but I found this last night.

By that time we could look for 30 mill and hopefully Walcott has become Henry mark 2 and Vela is like Michael Owen. World beaters.
I thought it was roma, not milan interested in nik
Pliz don’t start about Nasri.Am no longer interested.If he joins well n’ good if he doesn’t life goes on.Am simply fed up.As 4 JS am in Kenya n’ dis iz ma fav site.Keep up da tremendous work mate,cheers!
The clock is behind because when the time changed for British summer time the server did not update.
Triplec – It was Milan, the article stated the had changed there attention from Adebayor to Bendtner
and if they dont get bendtner, they will go for van persie, and the cycle continues, they got flamini because of his greed, what

Aside from the terrible use of the English language, J, can you please take a firm line on needless homophobia like i assume you would with racism or sexism. none of that shit is right and arsenal are supposed to be a righteous and accepting club. ‘gay’ should not be used as an insult you fucking moron, it’s peoples fucking choice who they are attracted to and it doesn’t make them a better or worse person because of it.
(All in time for me to get in a fight with some butch lady who likes only other masculine ladies for the third year in a row as i go drinking with my flaming brother this saturday of our proud (pride?) saturdays…
Back in January Bendtner was linked to a series of Serie A clubs – and his father dismissed it all back then.
Freedom of speech Samuel! This a blog not the house of parliament! He did not say anything about anyone being better than anyone else. We use the term black in such negative ways does that make us racist. Gay can mean happy, homosexual and in modern youth culture it is a descriptive word used to indicate that something is not cool, not held in esteem etc. No big deal!
You come on here effing and blinding and you have the audacity to criticise a little boy for using the word gay in a derogatory manner, how and hypocritical of you. Oh maybe you see it as a personal assualt on your sexuality? Maybe you should join gay rights international or something and leave us to speak freely without have to watch our every word.
Firstly.. proven “write”? wtf its right mate.
secondly i posted all the links to my claims, there were other people who made the claims, i just passed the info on to you.
Your comment was deleted the first time for excess swearing, which makes you look stupid. Younger children use this website, and yes i admit i have sworn before, but your was unneeded.
People will judge this site on the quality of info, i have often provided correct and exclusive info before anywhere else, and yet i get no praise for that.
You are the embarssement Me because you come here making petty stupid comments trying to show me up when infact 99% of people here love my work. I applogise for the fact Nasri has not signed, but once more i gave all my links to the claims.
If you do not like this website.. save your time bitching and go elsewhere.
Not that i have to answer myself to you anyway.
big up J.S.
i am one of those who greatly appreciate this site, if i didn’t i would find something else to do with my time. as you said, no need to answer to anyone, least of of all those who hate – keep the faith, here’s the love dude.
BTW: with the new signings coming in, what will merida’s position in the squad be do you think? that kid looks dynamite to me.
peace out.
oh yeah, whilst the sangria is letting me preach, as far as im concerned: getting needlessly jumped up about minor, obviously unprejudiced use of the word gay does no one any good and detracts from genuine homophobia. that was clearly not deregatory or meantto cause offence, so chill out dude.
ust read the link above, any idea who this boateng kid is J.S?
shut the fukk up. hus da fuk is diising jay, if u dnt like the site then fuck off, he s a top lad and doing a great job. fukin pussies are sad jealous bastards. go and get yourself a better site than this, trust me it will be hard.oh and i mean blog. so dont go and say SKYSPORTS, they have got it wrong aswell anywayz, but rarely. just like jay he rarely gets it wrong. no all of you get off his back, you dnt like the site, the you know……what you still doing here…
http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/8305864/Young-Gunner-opts-for-Ghana
This is one of the most informative sites for Arsenal on the web imo. Keep up the good work and to hell with the nay-sayers
this stupid son of a bitch
called ME is annoying..
j,can u do something…
u just delete all his comments..
i do believe all of us are not interested with his fucking issues..
so everytime this motherfucker posts any comments
just delete em..
he’s such an asshole
J.S. Great site, great work. There are a lot of folk from all around the world who really appreciate the effort you are putting in here.
However, as much I hate putting more work on your plate, I think you should turn on comment approval on your blog, so you prevent coments like “Opinionated” and “arthur” (who may be the same person). Ignorant language like he spews should not be tolerated on any public forum, whether he pretends it is “a descriptive word used to indicate that something is not cool” does not defend the use of a derogatory word. The N-Word has the same ‘street’ use, but I’m sure that wouldn’t be tolerated either.
Anyhow……. keep on bringing it on.
Yep i will be doing in future mate.

well done to whoever found the news, shame people will just steal it and not give you credit.
whats going on? even the birds are jumping ship ans off to the chavs, by this time next year ramsey will be our longest serving player.
Cnt wait to see more of Rasmussen cuz ive heard hes technically very talented, seen a bit of him already but not much to build an opinion.
Im very exited about Bendtner, he can potentially be better than Adebayor by the time he reaches Ade’s age, i think we’ll see him up his scoring tally next season and make a much larger impact on matches.
“As usual I am proven write! Where is the samir nasri signing Mr Sanderson as predicted (20th prediction) that it would be concluded on the 2nd of July?
Like I said you are full of shit. And now you are deleting my posts to save yourself of the embarassment.
me said this on July 3, 2008 at 8:34 pm”
A. Just cuz he hasnt signed yet doesnt meen he wont sign.
B. J is just reporting with the information he is given, as are all the massive media giants like the papers and Sky who keep saying hes about to sign, so its not like hes making it up.
C. He probably deleates ur posts because rarely do i see u post with out managing to act abusive in some way towards or about some1.
D. If u hate this blog so much then fuck off.
Good points Johnny. I dont see him going and slagging off caughtoffside.com or the sun. Because those people will just delete his comments, and frankly im sick of his pathetic moaning.
However, the Nasri thing has burnt my fingers a little. This is my first six months in blogging, and i have learnt so much.
I accept critical comments from people who point out the good points, and then offer helpful improvements.. not idiots who come and say “once again i am ‘write'”.
And apparently i am the immature one?
anyway. “Me” will not be posting anymore on this blog, and if im a bull shitter he wont want to read it anyway :)
Jamie do you know how the Arsenal
Jamie do you know how the Arsenal U16’s team is doing in that tournament in Germany, P.S sorry about the first post because i clicked on before i had finished the message Lol
“I dont see him going and slagging off caughtoffside.com”
That site is beyond ridiculous. They can’t even write a headline without sounding stupid!
Anyway, cheers for this site. It’s clear you put a lot of time into it, and it is one of the most informative Arsenal sites out there.
Sorry i love you all really :(
Ill be good i promise.
i’ll be reading J’s comments only anyway..
Opinionated said this on July 3, 2008 at 8:55 pm
I’m straight, it doesn’t mean I can’t be offended by ignorance. If someone said “But he’s a nigga” or something, it would be seen as a disgusting comment and if the person who said it thought his name was the happy connetation (sp?) of ‘gay’, he would have just said happy. Or the many other, less awkward version of the word. Ignorance doesn’t help life whether in large or tiny amounts and while people still use such derogatory terms to insult (yes, black people use ‘nigga’, doesn’t mean a white boy like me is gonna start spouting such a loaded word around) the bigger stuff still isn’t gonna be sorted. If people can’t even change the way they use a word, how the hell are they gonna stop being hateful?
Oh, and general swearing is nowhere near the same. Saying ‘fuck’ doesn’t offended the Fuckish people now doesn’t it.
best arsenal site… thumbs up J..
My day starts with youngguns.
Thumbs up and thanks J..
love it.
hi,
I found this interesting and i wanted to share it with you guys:
http://www.arsenal.com/article.asp?thisNav=first+team&article=492628&lid=&Title=Nasri+completes+move+from+Olympique+Marseille
The URL took me by surprise but that page leads to the aaron ramsey signing page.. but something is definitely up :)
i predict it being announced today.. you heard me bitches.. hell yeah!
J. Sanderson,
Stop being goaded into a war of words. I have also been critical of your work, when you have been too easily tempted into the sensationalsim of “silly-season” and feel at times some of your supporters may delude your own progress with this whole writing lark.
But, fair plays to you, the reports here are often excellent, sometimes less is more, and I just would like to see you being slightly more selective on what is news-worthy.
Overall, it is a good start for you with Young Guns and as you can be honest and say you have made mistakes and learnt from them, then fair plays to you.
“Me” has clearly grown frustrated with the Nasri saga and you are a good as target as any!
lol ‘once again im write ‘ me’s the man Oo…
as for the gay issue. im stronglgy against homophobia.. whys it my buisness as to who someone is else rooting?..
however i do let the` thats gay` slip out once in a while.. its not meant in an actual homosexual way… but its hard when your whole childhood speak like that, it just becomes part or your vocab.
will be making more of an effort in the future…
woah, pd – great find!!!
That is weird, but we can only hope :)
It’s nothing. The number the “492628” is same than the Ramsey’s article.
Don’t be fooled by the words in this links – they just go on the tab and are not a real part of the URL, eg:
http://www.arsenal.com/article.asp?thisNav=first+team&article=492628&lid=&Title=Wenger+swallows+a+horse+whole
also works….
You can change the title of the news by editing the &Title=xx+x+x.
keep it real JS, stirling work.
Lol, I just realised – sounded like a twat there :P
Ah well, maybe it will happen today… or not :)
Wow, i had no idea Wenger could actually eat an entire horse haha!
Also i must say that this is my favourite Arsenal site but people must realise that when J says something and adds the link, he is passing on info so can people stop shooting the messenger! If you have an issue with the Nasri thing i suggest you go to either Arsenal.com or the marseilles website and write to them about it! Thats where all the stories start one way or another so if you want to take it out on anyone take it out on them!
Everyone that has read this site for quite a while can see the amount of effort that J puts in and is very rarely praised when he gets stuff right BUT still carries on regardless, fair play to you mate!
Can i go off topic for just one moment. If Adebayor goes, do people think that Wenger will buy a replacement? I don’t know why but i have a feeling that he wouldn’t. I think that he will choose to reward Bendtner and promote him to first team regular as he is in the same sort of mould anyway and already fits in so wouldn’t even need to settle in! If he doesn’t promote Bendtner then i really would like us to buy Santa Cruz, he is real class and i think he would do the business for us!
J,
Great site….behind Le Grove it is the blog i check the most….keep up the good work, love reading about the kids and how they’re getting on as no one else covers it properly. As for all this bulls*** about ‘gay’ and this Me fella, can everyone just grow up a little bit? Who really gives two Sh*ts about what gets written on a web blog comment list? Most likely Me is 14 years old and the people who take offence or defend the use of the word ‘gay’ are bored and fancy proving how politically enlightened they are..let it be boys and girls.
There are bigger concerns….like where the f*** is Nasri and why have Spurs signed so many more players than us? I would’ve had Gomes for sure….
JS, I’m a big fan of the site but have noticed recently that the wind-up merchants are getting to you.
Do not engage them or respond to them, that is the biggest insult you can pay to them, don’t get involved in a war of words as another poster said.
The genuine fans of this site do not want to read an ugly bitch fight, if we wanted to do that we would read le grove.I can imagine its hard to get criticised after all your hard work but everyone will have greater respect for you if you refuse to respond to the idiots.
Just found out some info that i will say so that you can have a go at me and not J when / if it doesn’t happen. Reorts are now circulatng saying that Nasri will sign in 10 days when he gets back from his holiday!
There ya go J, now you can’t be the one that gets shot at when it don’t happen :-)
Violent attacks on homosexuals have increased by seventy percent in the five years that the word gay has been used to mean “crap”. It does matter. The violence is real. It Kills.
Thankfully this usage is dying out…. not cool.
Kudos Samuel stick up for what you know is right.
The “N”word can mean a particular shade of brown. no excuse.
Kick Racism out of football
Kick Homophobia out of football
Fantastic site please dont be a forum for normalisation of unthinking hateful language. Please think it through again.
I agreed with you
