Copenhagen is a case of mismanagement.
Perhaps
@Diouf or
@Michele can post their opinions about what's happening.
They spent 15.2M€ in imports.
The most expensive was Cornelius, 6M€, started the first match, wasn't even in the subs bench for the second, was an unused sub for the third, wasn't even in the subs bench for the fourth, and this week was a used sub and played the last 18'.
In theory he should be playing every game and scoring goals, but actually he's only the 17th most used player (108').
Second most expensive was Amoo, 4.3M€. Playing time: 0'.
Third most expensive, Mukairu, 1,9M€. Playing time: 42' (21st most used player)
Fourth most expensive, Karamoko, 1.5M€. Playing time: 46' (20th most used player)
Fifth most expensive, Sorensen, 1M€. Playing time: 39' (22nd most used players)
Sixth most expensive, goalkeeper Ryan, 0.5M€. Started the first two matches with manager Jess Thorup, then Jacob Neestrup became the manager and Grabara has been his choice ever since then.
And that's how they spent their money, in a striker that they rarely use, in another player they haven't used yet, in another three players that they barely use, and in a goalkeeper that they're not using anymore.
Maybe this would still be enough to survive Conference League groups with PAOK, Slovan Bratislava and Lincoln Red Imps, but it's not enough to survive CL groups.
EDIT: By the way, they also sold Boving to Sturm for only 2.2M€ and now he's a key player there. Wouldn't it have been smarter to keep Boving and not sign Amoo? They'd end up 2.1M€ richer and with a better player in their squad.
It's because of choices like this that clubs have bad results. It's never just one or two bad decisions, but the combination of several decisions.
