@Alek
I think there are both players for now and for the future on the list. Those for now are Bartczak, Brozek twins, Jodlowiec, Boguski, Iwanski, Bandrowski or Pitry. They’re just too old to give them more time. Guys like Polczak, Rybus, Majewski, Pazdan or Lewandowski may be called up with Euro 2012 in perspective. Although I think Majewski is ready to play in the upcoming qualifiers. I hope Leo won’t be afraid to risk. As for left mids, I think Pawlowski can play there as well.

Thanks, I was quite surprised when I saw that, especially when you consider the fact that it’s a blog entirely in English. I heard a lot of coaches saying great things about Pitry (e.g. Smuda); he supposedly is a world class in training. Now it’s his time to shine as he’ll most definetely play regularly for Gornik. Lewandowski will probably be a rotation player (Rengifo, Reiss) so I don’t expect him to be up there with top goalscorers. But I like the fact that Leo is reacting quickly in this case. I’ve got the same opinion about Brozek; he always strikes me as not fully determined in the interviews.

Your blog was quoted on Sports.pl, that is awesome. Congrats. From the list you have above I think Pitry and Lewandowski could develop into special players. Iwanski will not be able to handle the pressure of playing for Legia. As for Brozek it is make or break time. Either he will finally do something on the international level, whether it be for Wisla in Europe and/or the National Team or he will be a local starlet. I don’t think he has the cajones, but I want him to prove me wrong.

Some of the players definitely deserve to get a chance like Pawelek (even impress me a hardcore Legia fan after the Liverpool game), Bartczak (long over due to call him up but now his situation sucks), Boguski, Iwanski, Rybus, Bandrowski. Others a a bit too young like Rzezniczak, Pazdan, Rybus, Lewandowski. Lewandowski is good ill give them that but i highly doubt if he is national team ready. The list doesnt seem to include any actual left mids except for Rybus so i have to question whether Leo is crazy enough to start him in any national caps with suck a role and no replacement, looks like this list has some truths but most likely also has allot of lies.
