Many players are criticized for their attitude. One of the biggest losers in the eyes fans Przemysław is after these two matches Franc. “Most of the time it was not effective. The personification of” Cieśrodkovia “, the brake of the Polish offensive. No dribbling attempt, dependent, was eternally waiting for support on the wing, even though it took place rallies. There was no breaking of the action on his part. He did not help on the defensive, he left the lonely Piątkowski. At Jakub Kamiński, who played on the other side of the pitch, he looked like an amateur ” – This is how his performance with Malta was reviewed by Marcin Jaz from Sport.pl.
Frankowski also “famous” with a post -match statement. – I don't think we were in 100 percent. Mentally prepared for the match with Lithuania. We were favorites, we played at home, so from the first minute we should show who rules on the pitch. It didn't look like this – he said in an interview with TVP Sport. He criticized him, among others Jacek Laskowski. – The Polish representative, who has been in professional football for years, plays in a professional club in a good league and has known for a few months that we will start the elimination with matches with Lithuania and Malta, says that there was no mental preparation? Something is wrong here – he said.
