After the first training
Monday, 19 May 08, 04:22 PM
Polish players are in Donaueschingen and they compete for the right to go to EURO 2008. 23 out of 26 will get their place in the team. To be more precise - 23 out of 27, because Leo Beenhakker asked 18-year-old Wojciech Szczęsny from Arsenal to play in the preparation camp as second goalkeeper (Artur Boruc [Celtic] still fights for the crown of Scottish Premier League and Tomasz Kuszczak [Manchester United] is in Moscow, preparing to UEFA Champions League final against Chelsea and Wojciech Kowalewski [Korona Kielce] resigned from being a substitute goalkeeper due to family issues).
We will see more key players on Thursday - Ebi Smolarek, Mariusz Lewandowski, Jakub Błaszczykowski and Jacek Krzynówek. They can feel confident about their places in the team. Same stands for Bąk, Żewłakow and Wasilewski.
One of the players that can't be sure his place in the team, Marek Saganowski, says:

Interview with Leo Beenhakker
Thursday, 15 May 08, 05:20 PM
Leo Beenhakker: I came back from the Polish Cup final with a headache. When the best two of Polish teams play, moveover, without any pressure, because both are guaranteed to participate in the cups, one expects a beautiful match and open game. Would want to call: "Go on, play! Nevermind, win or lose, but seek to score, seek to win." But no. Both teams above all, they did not want to lose a goal. I was watching this match, the play of Matusiak, Łobodziński, Wawrzyniak and the rest, and I was thinking about what awaits us in the Euro 2008 match with Germany. For God's sake, how I'm going to make them play on the level I need in three weeks? On the level of matches with Portugal, because in so we have to play on Euro. I was thinking to myself, that this qualification and style, in which we sometimes play, that's a real...

How Leo Beenhakker was selecting a squad...
Friday, 09 May 08, 04:40 PM
Leo Beenhakker has decided, that Arkadiusz Radomski, Artur Wichniarek, Dawid Janczyk, Lukasz Piszczek, Michal Golinski and Wojciech Kowalewski will not go to Donaueschingen for preparation camp before EURO 2008. Without three strikers, it seems that Poland is not going to be very dangerous offensively.
Here's what Leo Beenhakker said after announcing his decision:
Read Post »1. Team welfare. Making any decision, I've been refering to what's the best for the team. I've done my best to make this group of players a real team. A team, in which there is full understanding and good coordination.
2. Skills of the players.
3. Team balance. In several cases I had three great players for one postion, but I knew that I can take only two of them - the main player and his substitute.
4. Physical and...

Roger - new Polish player?
Sunday, 02 March 08, 07:17 PM
Michal Listkiewicz - the president of Polish Football Association said in the interview with Gazeta Wyborcza that Polish Football Association and Legia Warsaw do everything they can to get Polish citizenship for Legia's player - Roger. This Brazilian player supposedly has been noticed by Polish coach - Leo Beenhakker and another rumour states that he would be playing in Polish national team on Euro 2008!
Personally, I have nothing against foreign players playing in Polish national team. On World Cup 2002 in Korea and Japan our main striker was Olisadebe who got Polish citizenship also basically to be able to play in Polish national team. Some people claim that the difference between these two players is significant: Olisadebe had married the Polish girl and he was the lead player in WC 2002 qualifications. He was...
