Comments on: Who Is Leo’s Mystery New Striker (Poll)? http://poland.worldcupblog.org/1/who-is-leos-mystery-new-striker-poll.html Poland - World Cup 2010 - South Africa Tue, 24 Nov 2009 06:12:00 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: tomasz http://poland.worldcupblog.org/1/who-is-leos-mystery-new-striker-poll.html/comment-page-1#comment-69592 tomasz Mon, 28 Jul 2008 21:11:38 +0000 http://poland.worldcupblog.org/1/who-is-leos-mystery-new-striker-poll.html#comment-69592 @zaraza At first I liked Kuszczak's ambitious attitude; this probably enabled him to progress from Hertha's nr 3 to ManUtd. But now I don't think Leo can accept a player that puts his own needs and ambitions before the team. And I won't cry after him as I think Fabianski is a better option for nr 2. As for the strikers, I wonder on which position will Jelen play this season. He wants to be a striker, but I suspect he'll end up on a wing. I would like the mystery guy to be Janczyk, but only if he plays and scores regularly for CSKA. Other than that, I have no idea about whom is Leo talking about. @Alek Leo is clearly not a fan of Jelen because he claimed to be injured and then played for Auxerre. At the same time, we need more fast players in our squad and I'd like to have an option like Jelen on the bench. I agree that it's too early for Lewandowski or Janota, at least when we talk about the qualifiers (I'd give them a chance in winter friendlies). Janczyk may be this mystery option, but where does this sudden love from Leo comes from? He didn't even include him in the squad of 26 before Euros. As for Sikora, I don't think there's any possibility that Leo will call him up, he's looking for a 'physical' type of player. @zaraza

Lewandowski and Janota are both way too inexperienced, especially Janota who doesn't even have a cap for Feyenoord, ya I do know he played very well in friendlies but hell Kuszczak has started every Man U friendly this season as far as i know but everyone knows he wont be number 1. My guess would be either Janczyk mainly because he is one of my favorite players and im still happy with him U-20 world cup performance. Sikora would be my next guess. He was quite a prolific goal scorer in the ekstraklasa but was always overshadowed by someone jizzing their pants about Brozek. Speaking of Brozek it definitively wont be him because it sounds like Leo is opting for something like a 4-5-1 formation and Wisla tried playing that way in friendlies with Brozek and he was horrible.

But he says without regular games he doesn't even expect to get into the squad, much less challenge for the top spot. So why is Kuszczak always demanding special treatment? For a time he even seemed to think he deserves to be above Boruc. Maybe Tomek thinks Polish goalkeepers are worse than their English counterparts, so it should be easier to get called up and to become #1? There have been reports like this for some time now... Tomek needs to drop his attitude of entitlement and start acting in a more mature manner, otherwise, Leo might drop him from the squad permanently. About the new striker, I have a sinking feeling it's Pitry! I would rather he gave another chance to Jelen. Also bring along a youngster, either Robert Lewandowski, Janczyk, or Janota (he can play either as an attacking midfielder or as a striker) even if they're not ready to feature now.
