Was he elite or shit?

Actually shite
Just good in penalty area and good header
The funny thing: unlike based Podolski, this scumbag didn't want to be associated with poland despite having typical ugly mireczek face xD

I'm sure this is a very unbiased opinion

>>76163509
Nah I'm neutral
But he didn't have skills.

>>76163498
Because Pooooland is inferior than Germany. He did right choice.

>213 goals in 529 club appearances
>71 (seventy one) goals in 137 (one hundred and thirty seven) games for his national team
>team never lost a game in which he scored

What do you think?

>implying tap ins aren't important

>>76163563
Still looked like typical 90s polish truck driver janusz mirek. Just saying.
>be polack
>deny it
Now that's serious issue

an authentic poacher, and by that i mean someone who really has no other facets to their game other than positioning and finishing

>>76163535
>heading is not a skill
>positioning is not a skill
>finishing is not a skill

penaldo but less meme

He was shit. He scored a shitload but it doesn't count because he couldn't do le tricky dribbles. I don't even remember seeing him dab once. Rly makes me wonder why every team just doesn't get some shitty tap in man for free goals.

>implying tap ins aren't important

this leaf is right. spee doesn't know how to appreciate tap in masters.

>>76163324
Handballing Polack fuck. Fuck this shitmouthed kraut.

>>76163748
tap in merchants were unironically rated so highly back in their day.

>be forward
>have jaap stam skills
Reminder every wooden defender is good header

He is underrated. A lot of people say "he was a tap in merchant" which is true but 1. he was genuinely world class at headers and most importantly 2. he managed to adapt his game in the NT for decades, he started out in 2002 with shitters like Casten Jancker and still managed to be an important player 12 years later around real world class players. Podolski didn't even last 4 years before you could see the team had outgrown him but Klose always adapted.

>>76163498
he had a mostly German father and a German surname so would probably not be supported as well
he'd only be dislike in Poland and living there at that time at least was a lot worse than living in Germany and he would have gotten a lot less success

>>76163753

First polack then kraut, you seem confused my uneducated fat friend from overseas.

>>76176219
why not both?

Elite celebration

>was (elite player from the 2000s) elite or shit?

bad meme

I still can't fathom how the 'German' team from the mid-2000s could start with 2 Polacks, a guy from Switzerland and whateverthefuck Odonkor was.

>>76176219
Polack blood and kraut for the silverware. Fuck yourself.

>>76163637
isn't this the definition of a good striker?
10 years from now speed meant nothing in football. organized attack was the real deal.

>>76163324

This Loo >>76163669 is right. The funniest thing is that polish paweł is probably a cocksucker for Gaywandowski despite being literally worse in everything mentioned than Klose.

>>76176495
I still can't fathom how a Dutchman would cry about German starting "Polacks" but completely ignore his own team starting Blacks from Latin America or Indonesians for 40 years.

>>76163324
A slightly better van Nistelrooy

>>76176630

>muh 1/100 euro heritage

Where are you from, wobbleman?

Elite. German Paolo Rossi. Who cares about skills when you're always in the right spot?
