The shape of him
Erik Botheim is a forward and a Norway international. In 26/27 that meant 24 club appearances and 1,731 minutes. A forward is judged on end product: goals, and the movement that finds space for them. The threat alone can pin defenders back.
The job
Stretch the defence and take the chances that come. Out of possession, lead the press from the front.
