'Don't you know who I am?' asks Bendtner after credit card fail in pizzeria
Nicklas Bendtner was forced to go begging for his pizza among strangers on Saturday night.
Stopping at a pizzeria in Copenhagen the Sunderland striker, on loan from Arsenal, turned to desperate methods when his credit card wouldn't work.
Danish newspaper Ekstrabladet reported that Bendtner tried to get the pizzas for free, even asking staff: "Don't you know who I am? I can buy the whole pizzeria."
A member of staff, who did not want to be named, is quoted by the paper as saying: "We told him that it did not matter who he was. If he could not pay, there was no pizza."
A customer told the paper: "He was f***ing arrogant acted as if he owned the place. All the people just stood and looked at each other and shook their heads over the way he behaved."
In the end, two girls took pity on the 23-year-old millionaire and paid for the food.
Bendtner then departed in a taxi - though it's not clear how he managed to pay for that either.
The striker missed Sunderland's 2-1 victory over Blackburn at the weekend with a groin problem.

Why would he do this kind of thing? He's bound to carry more than one credit card even if in the unlikely possibility he didn't have any cash on him.
