Simon Kjær: "First of all, it's insanely cool to be back. I'm looking forward to it like a little boy and yes it's just great to be with the boys again. And do what I love. Where I really feel most safe is around football, and it is where I feel home. And so with the national matches, it is something that has happened over many, many years.

I'm well aware of how many international matches I've played, and I'll probably also do my part to make sure there will be many more, so I'll take it easy along the way. But it is already a relatively high number, said in Jysk (his accent -red.). So, of course it's something I'm proud of, and I don't intend to stop at the moment."

"I'm looking forward to it like a little boy."
