LionOfGosforth Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 (edited) Can't say Alvarez has stood out like. Shows for a pass and moves it around tidily and that's about it Edit - what @ponsaelius said Edited November 22, 2022 by LionOfGosforth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Feel like Poland are just like Austria in that they usually stink out tournaments with negative football. The Swiss used to be similar but been involved in some good games in recent tournaments Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally have some entertaining high scoring games and at least one Shaqiri wonder goal in them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite beating Spain in the first game they were really boring in 2010. Scored 1 goal, conceded 1 goal, back on the plane home Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny Green Balls Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 they were pretty horrible to watch in 2010, yes. But I agree that they haven't been since 2014. They are more akin to the Belgium teams in the 80's than the old Switzerland teams. Not as talented as that Belgium team, but more organized, and they can play some really entertaining stuff.

Nah, it’s a decent squad for a smaller footballing nation. Just negatively set up and many key players getting older. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Some absolute dross on show in many of the games so far. Can't say I've found any that were particularly compelling apart from the last 45 in the USA-Wales game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kept thinking that calling Poland a smaller footballing nation wasn’t right but meant that they are nowhere near the level of the European footballing giants (France, Germany, England, Italy, Holland etc.) Was just in Poland for the past weekend and most people I talked with said the squad is alright but manager is really negative.

Dandy Man Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 It's ironic because Poland have got a relative wealth of decent strikers who play or have played at top clubs in Europe: Lewa, Zielinski, Milik, Piatek. But they play such negative limiting football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
