Comments on: Squad Watch: Week 8. Dawid Janczyk Rescues His Career At Lokeren. http://poland.worldcupblog.org/1/squad-watch-week-8-dawid-janczyk-rescues-his-career-at-lokeren.html Poland - World Cup 2010 - South Africa Thu, 18 Mar 2010 12:22:39 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Hieronim http://poland.worldcupblog.org/1/squad-watch-week-8-dawid-janczyk-rescues-his-career-at-lokeren.html/comment-page-1#comment-122967 Hieronim Thu, 07 May 2009 20:56:27 +0000 http://poland.worldcupblog.org/1/squad-watch-week-8-dawid-janczyk-rescues-his-career-at-lokeren.html#comment-122967 @Wejher I'm glad you bring up the Czech Republic game. I can recall a very vital tackle that Wasilewski made to prevent a Czech from gaining the box with the ball. He also did a great job playing with Kuba and the other midfielders on the right wing. And against Wales it was his pass that let Roger score his chip. The thing you need to realize is that defenders are going to get beat as individuals and that good defenses are ones that recover and cover for each other when that happens. Look at the tape from the Czech game. It started when a poor ball from Murawski was quickly distributed by Cech and their counterattack caught us out. There wouldn't have been a problem if the defenders in the box had marked properly, and honestly, Boruc should have saved the header. It was nearly right at him and he reacted very poorly. Wasilewski is an enforcer who won't back down and tackles hard. We need to start utilizing him on set pieces. I think other positions should be a priority. Those being central defence and the left wing. OBRANIAK!!!! @Wejher

But i think he could play both sides. uk.yahoo.com had him down as left back maybe a mistake on their part. But i think he could play both sides.

I didnt watch the game so i can say how well he played, but there werent any negative comments about him. I dont know how many times he has, but he played as a left back last weekend.

How often has he played that position?

I remember watching the Czech game and thinking if it was'nt for Boruc coming off his line quickly and for Kuba getting back and covering for Wasilewski we could have been punished on a few occasions, when they did eventually get one back where did it come from? Wasilewski. Who was out of position and marking nobody, he then had a rush of blood to the head, ran forward to tackle a guy who was already being marked in the middle of the pitch who then simply passed the ball to the player Wasil was supposed to be marking, he could then pick his cross. Playing with somebody who does'nt give you any confidence is very difficult because the other players are probably always playing in 2 minds not knowing what he is going to do, or wondering where he is, and they cant depend on him to do the simple stuff. I just think he is a liability to the team - and the worst thing.... he is a friend of a friend :S. Maybe i should give him a dead leg or something?!

Apparently he did a decent job for someone who's not a natural defender but he's not completely comfortable in that role and does make mistakes. I think Beenhakker, like Hertha, will only play him in defense as a last resort, if we're facing an injury crisis. According to Rzeczpospolita, Beenhakker will definitely call up Boruc and Zewlakow for the June friendlies.. Personally, I think we should rest these players, and use these matches to give the second-string some experience. Fakt (pure tabloid) claims that West Ham United, one other Premiership club, Bayer Leverkusen, and Koln have made offers to Sobolewski... Seems absurb, why on earth would these clubs be interested in a 32-year old with no experience in a decent league?

Then play Wawrzyniak as a central defender since he is having some success in Greece as one. At least in a friendly. At least the Piszczek idea i mean Dani Alves isnt the best defensive wise but does wonders for the offense. Piszczek has the speed to get back on d.

Helps me to see everyones point of view. The defensive midfielders definitely need to back-up D-backs that push forward or make a run. Good comments. ^ MarcinO good analyst.
