I hope we'll try to sign him next season. He's loved in Poland and by Poles in Chicago, still only 30 years old and on top of his game right now. Few highlights from this and last year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poVOgB0xYwI&NR=1 06/07 few highlights for his club and country http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGjzK4KdlA8&mode=related&search= Saturday against Portugal in Euro2008 quali:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRkRGfClnX8&mode=related&search= Week and a half ago against Russia: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2UM9XMf1BM&mode=related&search= I know he's a leftie but he's a really good leftie. Killer bombs from 20, 30, 40 yards out. One of the best playmakers on Polish and Wolfsburg teams, fast and again that killer of a shot. Can you imagine Blanco and Krzynowek together playing for Fire? We would have THE MOST intimidating crowds in MLS period.
Yes, he's a left mid but he can also play center (wears #10 and plays left and central for Wolfsburg). I don't know what he makes with Wolfsburg but I will try to find out. Few clips from Wolfsburg: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkQGSxnfzaw&mode=related&search= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsNDje7FSew&mode=related&search=
In the first youtube video posted it claimed he was the best polish player. I was always told by my polish neighbors that Boniek was the best, then again they always told me that Germany was a sh*t football country as well.
I didn't make that clip. Krzynowek is NOT the best ever for Poland, there are more that were better than him: Boniek, Lato, Dejna, Smolarek Sr. I could go on. Krzynowek is one of the best polish players RIGHT NOW.
Well his stats arent that impressive, hes no DP thats for sure but could be worth a couple hundred grand.
He's a left mid, he's all about assists and posession. It's really hard to take a ball away from him and he can defend, great skills with a ball and again that bomb of a shot. Have you seen him play? How can you judge a left mid by just looking at his goals stats? I have seen him play countless times and belive me he is worth more than 200k. Jacek would bring great skills and grit to Fire. Here's Wiki on him:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacek_Krzynówek
Is he a right midfielder? Or a forward? No? Then we can wait until after we get a right middie and a forward before we go blowing lots of salary cap to fill positions that are not nearly as urgent for us now.
-coast- Sadly this is true, with so many holes in our lineup, (right mid, forward, defending mid when armas leaves, another good starting defender) I hope if we get any player it will be one that can fill in one of these spots. I mean with BLanco and Mapp I think we thats the only spots we have that im satisfied with By the way how much open cap room do we have now?
Highlight reels like this are so ********ing boring. The same goal displayed 18 times with terrible music.
Well I know its not about the Goals, but common this guy has very average to below average stats. His ast numbers where terrible untill last year where he got 8 ast in the Bundesliga. Ratdog is correct on this one, we have alot of holes in our team right now that need to be filled first. That being said if Jacek comes cheap then yeah take a shot at him, but the Fire need to focus on bringing in some more scorer's and defenders.
Sadly when it comes to filling in much needed gaps or filling in empty seats at Toyota Park you know Toyota Park will more then likely come first.
