Sep 2, 2008 - George Best was a wonderfully gifted Irish player. Denis Law of Scotland was of similar stature. It is difficult to go with these "best of's" based on world cups because so many of these "heroes" were quite ordinary against some men who will never appear on these lists. I don't like what you say about Polish people. There are many of them in Ireland and I am no politically correct pussy, but I find them on the whole, a credit to their country, and they are friendly and have no arrogance.

Sep 3, 2008 - I admire Germany greatly, but the fact remains that Poland has been caught between two motherfucking giants (Prussia and Russia) for 300 years, who have between them, raped her at every turn. What chance has Poland had? Grow up hanes1983.

Sep 12, 2008 - since poland hasnt been a part of the soviet bloc their football has only been getting worse. look at whats happening with them now... terrible football.

seanreillyireland Says:

Sep 12, 2008 - Thanks Ekshtatenko, but I don't know... mozjet bitz te prav... Scotland used to have great players - they're rubbish now. Czech, Austria, Hungary all had wonderful teams in the 30's prior to WWII, Holland didn't take off until the late 60's... I think there are a lot of factors, but you may be right in the sense that if you take away the playing of football on the streets by kids aged 7 - 14 for 3 hours every evening, and give them computer games... this is what happens.

Ekshtatenko Says:

Sep 12, 2008 - maybe its computers or maybe they arent putting enough money into development of kids... I mean we know the talent has to be there because if you look at a lot of german players, they have polish last names and in the case of podolski and klose they are born in polan to polish parents. so the problem isnt talent, its something else. perhaps poland needs to bring in a european coach or put more money into footballing infrastructure.

Sep 23, 2008 - if we look at the french team we'll note that more than half of their team are originally from africa.

Ekshtatenko Says:

Sep 23, 2008 - ok they are still from the french school of football. how are you contradicting what i said... i said polish players dont lack talent, they lack proper coaching and schooling.
