By Chris Wright
Here’s AaB striker Nicklas Helenius popping off a beauty against SønderjyskE in the Danish Superliga over the weekend, courtesy of a wonderful pirouette past his marker on the edge of the box…

Not even a smidge near Bergkamp’s.
Dennis Bergkamp was unplayable in his day. What a touch that was!!!

Bergkamps is better. Not even close, really.
