He'll be linking up with blaszczykowski who plays with him at Dortmund. Both of them are Poland's most important players. It's difficult to gauge how well Poland will do given that they haven't played a competitive game for so long. Some of the friendly results look good, only lost two in their last nineteen games, although most of them have been at home and they've had a lot of draws. think they'll get through the groups but then germany or holland await. good minds...

"Błaszczykowski with Borussia Dortmund won the Bundesliga title for two seasons in a row in 2010–11 and 2011–12. He also won 2011–12 DFB-Pokal, providing two assists in the final 5–2 victory over Bayern Munich" step forward Jakub Błaszczykowski im really looking forward to this tournament now - my love for (general) footy seems to rise whenever the toon do well (helped during the last world cup). i always like to see a host nation do well, and as i dont particularly like ukraine (and they are in our group), i think i will 'adopt' poland as a second team. they have got a fair few decent individual players, but as they aint had any competitive games recently i cant really tell if they will gel when it matters. just realised, england have both host nations in their group for WC 2014 qualifying

Aleksander Kerzkhov at 40/1 isn't bad. http://www.oddschecker.com/football/internationals/euro-2012/top-goalscorer to be honest, i had never heard of him, but you can get 100/1 at coral. lewandowski has come down from 40 - 33/1 at coral (today), but is still 40s at ladbrokes, so i will prob put a few quid each way on him tomorrow. he is only 16/1 at bwin for some reason? massive difference in odds there

Robert Lewandowski (Poland) surprise top goalscorer? decent odds at ladbrokes and coral. They have a fairly straightforward group, although if they do progress they will likely face Germany or Holland in the quarters
