Rosenborg BK's club captain, Erik Hoftun is respected as one of the most influential players in the Norwegian game.
An excellent reader of the game, Hoftun has an adventurous spirit and likes to venture upfield, where he uses his height to good advantage, proving a useful threat from set-pieces.
Hoftun's ever-present run came to an end in 2000/01 after he was sent off against Helsingborgs IF, but he returned to collect a full set of six matches the following season.

Erik Hoftun is adamant his side will not go down without a fight (©Getty Images)
Rosenborg BK go into their Matchday 6 contest against Arsenal FC rooted to the bottom of UEFA Champions League Group E. But despite having no chance of catching third-placed Panathinaikos FC, who are four points ahead, defender Erik Hoftun insists that pride will be enough to spur on his team-mates at Highbury.
Hoftun has had a succession of partners in the Rosenborg defence this term, but the Norwegian champions will be without three of them on Tuesday night.

 Rosenborg BK (Norway)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Erik Hoftun and Bjorn Otto Bragstad have been partners in central defence for several seasons and have experienced full-backs in Christer Basma and Andre Bergdolrno alongside them in what is a very solid back line.
The main weakness is the lack of depth in the squad.
Erik Hoftun is a top international defender and Bent Skammelsrud a very important playmaker and midfielder.

 RTÉ.ie Sport - Classy Arsenal progress with big win
The 17-year-old showed maturity beyond his years as he brought down Pires' pass inside the area before lifting the ball past Erik Hoftun and twisting back inside to blast a half-volley past Johnsen.
To their credit, Rosenborg refused to crumble and three minutes after Roar Strand had hit a header against the woodwork, they pulled a goal back with the help of a double blunder from Almunia.
Any fears of a Rosenborg comeback were erased four minutes before the interval when Bergkamp's pass put Henry into a one-on-one with Johnsen, whose attempt to claim the ball succeeded only in up-ending the French striker for a penalty that Pires converted.

Fabregas duly put them 3-0 ahead with a goal of consummate class, belying the inexperience of a 17-year-old in his first season in the Champions League.
Not only did he show the control to bring down Pires' pass, but he had the composure to lift the ball past Erik Hoftun as he twisted back inside before burying a half-volley past Johnsen.
Just as worrying for Wenger, it was Almunia at fault once again as he flapped at a free-kick and failed to prevent Hoftun beating him at the near post.

Line-ups -------- Norway (4-5-1): Thomas Gill - Bjørn Tore Kvarme (Steinar Nilsen from 84.), Ronny Johnsen, Erik Hoftun, Bent Skammelsrud - Petter Rudi (Odd Inge Olsen from 46.), Erik Mykland (Ståle Solbakken from 74.), Kjetil Rekdal, Bjørn Viljugrein (Vidar Riseth from 60.), Stig Inge Bjørnebye (Frank Strandli from 84.) - Tore André Flo.
His substitute, Riseth, was even better, and showed that his leading role in LASK Linz, Austria is no fluke.
Of the two defenders, Hoftun was his solid self, but nothing spectacular, whereas Kvarme had no trouble defensively, but his poor distribution was disappointing.

 BBC SPORT | EURO2000 | NORWAY | Injury-hit Norway recall pair
Semb has had to do without Man United's Ronny Johnsen, Oyvind Leonhardsen of Spurs and Erik Hoftun who plays for Rosenborg, while he is giving Jan Derek Sorensen, another Rosenborg player, more time to prove his fitness.
Sorensen is due for a minor knee operation next week and Semb says he will wait for him if necessary: "I'd prefer not to gamble with anything, but it's possible to name a player who is not fit when the squad is named, but who will be fit when the matches start."
Midfielders: Eirik Bakke (Leeds United), Orjan Berg (Rosenborg), Erik Mykland (Panathinaikos), Kjetil Rekdal (Valerenga), Bent Skammelsrud (Rosenborg), Stale Solbakken (AaB).
