I'd rather have him hung his boots on the hook after the next World Cup, than keep to wither away at some MLS (although One season at Chicago Fire would be fine :lol:) to take over the National Team. He was trained by the best of the last two decades:
Klopp, Pep, Ancelloti, Heynckes, Flick, Naggelsman...Flick again.
He has seen and experienced things first hand. He's intelligent and has a knack of PR diplomacy.

Although, it has to be said that, being a NT manager is immensely a different animal from being one at a club level.
That's why the former is often called a "selectioner" and the latter a trainer.
Still, his over 150 NT appearances should account for something...he knows the NT selection mechanism from inside out.

However, he's 100% right about this guy Probierz as the NT manager. They guy selects different players for every match. He barely won against Lithuania. The 2:0 against Malta is nothing to write home about. Yet, he says things looked better from the pitch level than from the stands...What the fuck?! That's new...

Poland has enough talented players scattered around good leagues in Europe. There's no reason they should not keep up pace with Netherlands, Denmark or Belgium, etc, much smaller nations.
Now, with how they perfomed, they fear going to Helsinki to play Finland which can be a massive encounter to claim 2nd table position that gives play offs. Hoping to top Netherlands is irrational.

Sorry to hear about the near death experiences (if real and not perceived) by the way - sounds terrifying, but you are still with us and I am glad of that.

Thanks, I was a bit over-dramatic to emphasize how it brings perspective, it's a safe sport (as long as you don't fall, otherwise quite unsafe heh), ofc requires preparation, respect and all that. You always make some small mistake, wrong hold, trip or slip a bit and wonder what could have been, but same can be applied to everyday life, driving etc. The more serious excursions make you feel like you survived sth, and bring a lot of distance even towards serious life stuff, but it's usually more because of mental preparation for danger than actual situations.

It was actually an attempt at advertising heh, it's good for peace of mind if one seeks that, and you have hundreds of beautiful Munros alone there, could be complimentary to football if done right, many athletes train on elevation/ slopes for stamina, leg day and advantage from haemoglobin and other adaptations (hard in Scotland but still and always sth).

Enough on mountains from me tough, football forum and all. No alcohol also a great policy for mental stability and in general btw, I do long breaks from it here or there for rest, and the difference is quite noticable.

If he was so tired he should have told the coach so he could be substituted. Him playing without being able to shoot is to the detriment of the team.

Not a good look.

It's a weird thing to say also, sounds a bit of mistranslation, or an excuse for sitting on the bench or sth. Idk will look for origins of the quote, I saw some criticism for him not playing against Malta from the beginning, but if he played there would be criticism for stat padding, so no winning there. Would be better to not comment at all tbh anyway.
