25-year-old was tomålsscorer and matchvinner against France on Wednesday. All 20 clubs, possibly a new record at Ullevaal, had stated that they came to Oslo to see friendlies. Probably even more European clubs represented in the capital.

Do not care: Erik Huseklepp will not affect the transfer rumors. Here he is congratulated by team-mate Jan Gunnar Solli. AP
- I can not bother to think about who was here, and not, but it was great fun to play. I was a bit lucky on the first scoring, goalie was not very lucky there, and on the second goal I got a great ball of Bjorn Helge Riise. Then just run it in, "said Fire striker, who now stands with six goals in his last five games.

Uk reader:
"For my part, I hope that John Carew keeps injured while, because we play a lot better off without him."

John Arne Riise had already given Huseklepp information on the weak side to his teammate in Rome, Philippe Mexes and asked 25-year-old to be wild in the French army.

- He asked me to bring Mexes out of the running tours. I knew he liked it so well, "said Huseklepp.

VGTV:See interview with Huseklepp here!

- I said to Huseklepp that he would be savage. It does not like the two stoppers. In the form of Erik is now, the goals. He is stable in the Premier League, he disappears pretty quickly, "said Roma Riise.

- Very impressed

Also national coach Egil Olsen Drillo was full of praise for his tomålsscorer after the victory of the French reserves - that the Norwegian guys after the game described as anything but a b-team.

- Eric was well on the edge, and was very good when he was moved up on top. Then he used his art expertise - namely, what he does without the ball. It was almost perfect. His timing on the second goal was brilliant. By all means - I am very impressed with Huseklepp said Drillo to VG Nett.

In John Carews skadefravær were talking a lot about Vålerenga striker Mohammed Abdellaoue before the match. Premier League top scorer got a slam midway through the first half and went off track at the break. It was decided in advance, according to the Moa.

- Boring to come off at half time, but it was agreed in advance. I need to take a load damage I have suffered in recent weeks, "said Vålerenga toppscoreren to VG Nett.

my norwegian aint that bad, it says that forest along with a load of other clubs had scouts there. that's it really
 
Being Norwegian I naturally follow the Norwegian league and players playing abroad. Huseklepp can be employed as a right winger as well as central attacker. If I were to compare his playing style/skills with a british footballer I would say something like Craig Bellamy, except that Huseklepp is not nearly as strong as Bellamy. Huseklepp`s finishing is not the best either, but his pace gets him into many goalscoring chances. His technique is also quite good. He would be a good addition to the Forest squad, but I am not sure that he would enjoy the physical challenges in the Championship. His skills are more suited in the Premier League.

He has been attracting interest from a numerous clubs in Europe, and I dont think he will ever consider Championship football. His market value is probably around £ 1,5 -2,0 mill.

The other player many came to watch in Norway`s match with France was Mohammed Abdellaoue (24), which is the current leading goal scorer in the norwegian league with 15 goals in 20 games. He rejected a tgrial at Manchester United earlier, and his club Vaalerenga rejected a bid of 3 mill £ last year from dutch club Groningen. He is more like a Ole Gunnar Solskjaer type of player with great finishing skills. He is however stronger and quicker than Solskjaer were. Because of a clause in his contract he will be available for approx 1,0 - 1,5 mill £, but it looks like hes off to Hannover in Germany.

Would have loved to have him at Forest.

But top be fair, I dont think any of the best norwegian national team players would consider playing in the Championship.
 
Anyone who would turn down a trial at Man Utd and then join Hannover doesn't belong in football they belong in a care home. lol
