– An absurd situation – news Sport – Sports news, results and broadcast schedule

Former LSK profile Anja Sønstevold fears the chaos may affect the team, which is currently not among the top four in the Toppserien. – Newspaper ads are one thing, but they lose two players in an otherwise thin squad. That’s not positive. If it is the right thing for the club, then it is the way it is, says Sønstevold to news. The Inter player hopes she is wrong and that the unrest in the team will make the squad more united. – Often when there are storms, it can seem unifying in a team. I have not talked to any of the players, so I do not know how they handle it. But in general, when it storms, it can be unifying and motivating.

Photo: Fredrik Hagen / NTB Former LSK player thinks it will work out A lot has really happened in one go in LSK Women this season. The Canaries have the drawer in the Toppserien, and they are in sixth place – that is, outside the important fourth place in the league. If they do not climb the table, they will end up outside the newly introduced playoffs that will fight for league gold in the Toppserien. Sophie Román Haug, who is a debutant in the European Championship squad for Martin Sjögren, thinks it is difficult to see the club and the former teammates struggling on the field. But she thinks they will come back stronger. – They have had a tough start, but I think they will solve the challenges. I think they will take up the competition and fight at the top, says Haug. RESPONDS: Sophie Román Haug says it’s hard to see the old club struggling on the pitch. Photo: Annika Byrde / NTB At the same time, there will also be internal unrest in the club. A few days ago it was known that as a result of a personnel case, both Camilla Linberg and Malin Johnsen Brenn will leave the club in August after agreeing to break their contract with the club. It was first known through Romerikes Blad. LSK also wrote a short press release, confirming that the two players have finished at the club. Haug will not comment on the personnel case that characterizes her old club during the day, and says she focuses on what will happen on the national team. But she thinks it is important for the players in the team to stay focused on the sports doctor. – It is clear that one must focus on the football field and do what one can. It is important to stay focused, she says. DONE: Camilla Linberg terminates contract with LSK Women. Photo: MARIUS SIMENSEN / BILDBYRÅN NORWAY Expert with harsh criticism news’s ​​football expert, Carl-Erik Torp, calls the case in LSK “amateurish”. – When it says in the press release from the club that they have warts agree that they do not win anything more, then it is not favorable for any of the parties. Had this been handled well from the start, this would not have happened. CRITICAL: news’s ​​football expert Carl-Erik Torp is not impressed with LSK Women. Torp believes that the situation has a negative effect on LSK on a sporting level as well. He points out that there are two important players who left the club later this summer. – It is a very absurd situation. They will be released, but will play out the period (until 1 August). There are players who get to play regularly, there are not players who are only part of the team. For LSK, this is a crisis. I saw them talk about Champions League games, but I think they should focus on cleaning their own ranks, says Torp. Rejects “full crisis” But head coach Knut Slatleim does not experience it as a full crisis yet – I do not experience that there is a crisis in the group. We are working to take fourth place. We will stand by it until it is theoretically impossible to do so, says Slatleim to news. They have six points up to Lyn, who for example has fourth place. In addition, Stabæk is ahead of them with two points, but it is with one game more played. In addition, there is the unrest that RB has mentioned. Slatleim can not comment so much on the case. – It is a personnel matter, and it is demanding for all parties. I can say nothing more than that, says Slatleim. – Brenn start towards Kolbotn. Why did she do that? – The agreement states that they are here until 1 August, and then they compete for the same places. – But at the same time Lindberg was not in the squad. What is the reason for that? – When we met Kolbotn she had a challenge with her knee, so therefore she was not back in the team. REJECTS DISPLAY: Knut Slatleim will not say that there is a full division in the club. Photo: MARIUS SIMENSEN / BILDBYRÅN NORWAY Slatleim says he can not say how the case affects each individual player, and he does not want to comment on anything about the mood in the squad during the day. He still reacts to the headline of RB, which claims there is a “full split” in the team. – I can not agree with the fact that there is a full split, says the LSK coach.
