So he was kicked out of the group

HÄLLEVIK Martin Olsson is injured and Eric Larsson is sold.

However, Jonas Knudsen was criticized from the bench against Milabe.

“We are seizing the team that has the best chance of winning the match,” Malmö football coach Andreas Jorgesson said after 1-1 against Milalbe.

The face of last spring Malmo FF: left back Jonas Knudsen Cruciate ligament.

At the end of May, he came back and played from the start against Degerforce.

The 29-year-old had three more starts and cameos under Milos Milojevic.

But Knudsen had a harder time convincing interim coach Andreas Jorgesson.

First, Martin Olsson advanced in front of him and then Georgeson chose to play with the second option at right-back, Eric Larsson on the left. Against Sundsvall last weekend, Knudsen only had one run at the end.

“You must have players for all scenarios”

When Larsson was sold at the start of the week and Olsson was still injured, he opted against Sevaspor on Thursday to play centre-back Niklas Mosander on the left despite the fact he hasn’t played as a full-back in many years. .

In the 1-1 match against Mialbe, Knudsen was not even on the bench. Moisander played again at left-back and when the Finn had to step into the center of defense after Dennis Hadzikadionic was injured an hour later, Jorgson replaced Jo Inge Bergit as left-back.

The MFF coach did not have a single defender among his eight players on the bench.

– What you think beforehand is that you should have players for all scenarios. I thought we got that with Joseph (Sesai) and Joe Inge who can play as full-back and Niklas who can play as centre-back. Emmanuel (Lomotti) has also played quite a bit as a center back in his career.

“This is frustrating”

Why wasn’t Knudsen on the bench?

“As in all selections, we choose the team that we think has the best chance of winning the game,” says Georgeson.

will not go away?

– number.

It may seem strange from the outside – Knudsen is not even in the team and Birgit must play left-back. Is Knudsen further and further away from the starting lineup?

– No, the opposite is really my feelings. He’s had a long absence with a knee injury and with every week of training he’s building himself up to be ready to get back to the level he was in before the injury. Then it’s frustrating because it takes game minutes to really get back to the position he was in before the injury. We want to give him that, too. It will be a balancing act. But nothing is bigger for the team than the next game and trying to win it. Today, the others had to go first. It was a careful decision, says Jorgson.
