Gajtkowski has really been on fire lately. Two more goals today, I wonder if Janas would consider him for the World Cup squad. Doesn't it seem like Lech always goes far in the PP?
Could take Rasiak's spot I guess, other than that it would seem that at this time we are solid at the forward position. Frankowski, Zurawski starting, and Pawel Brozek, Niedzielan and Saganowski of the bench, and unfortunately Janas' fav. forward Rasiak of course. Plus Piechna (0A) and Jelen (4A-1) are getting a tryout v. Estonia. I suppose if time allows and he holds his form, a spot might open up, though at this time Id put his chances of being on the NT as remote at best. (It is rumoured that he will join Cracovia in January or next summer for 200.000 Euro). As for Lech Poznan in the Polish Cup, yeah they seem to do well in the Cup.

so i see Legia can have another good young forward p.s. have a strange feeling we'll meet korona in the quarterfinals. would be nice to spank some villagers though. we owe them a good thrashing. korona isnt bad either. they had luck they lost only 1:0 last time so we have to fix that. anyway see you in the semis

so Lech, Wisla P. are through to the final four, with Legia and Zaglebie joining them. no chance of Korona beating Legia and they have to pull off a 2-0. no way. also polonia doesnt really stand a chance against Zaglebie. so whos the favourite?
WOW, what a let down for Lublin, they have been playing well in the Ekstraklasa. Loosing to Polonia; who is almost certain to be relegated has got to piss Smuda off.

If I was to rank the teams on the basis of most likely cup winners I would have to say Legia would have a slight edge over Lech, (if they meet in the final Legia will need a solid victory at home, cause Lech will likely secure a win in the home leg) with Zaglebie coming in a rather distant third and Wisla Plock being the biggest underdog. I doubt Korona will come back from the 2-0 deficit in their qf with Legia, though I am sure they will put up a fight in front of the home crowd.
