Libor Kozak

[silhillvilla]

I feel for Kozak. Harsh treatment.

[pauliewalnuts]

Anyone think Kozak will start? Just asking as we were discussing why he doesn't play Gil and he starts him suddenly.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Peter Andre and Bitty McLean start for us under this manager.

Yep, although not showing it in all the pre season appearances, Libor still scored goals. TBH I was surprised when we went for Gestade at the time.

Leaving Kozak to rot is a huge mistake one of many this manager has made.

Kozak is similar in style to Gestede, a bit awkward with the ball at his feet but good in the air and ultimately know's where the back of the net is. In our current plight surely he's worth a punt for the next few games?

Is he performing well for the U21's?
I've read a couple of posts on different threads where people are saying he's not doing too well.
Surely he's not helping himself if that's the case.

Don't get me wrong, I want him to get a chance and there's no time like the present but only if he can be arsed

He's probably thinking what's the point.

If he is, he's no use to us

What's the point in trying when you are paid tens of thousands of pounds per week? It's his job.

Horses for courses pal. Bitty will start if it's raining, it's raining......

One thing I really like about Kozak is that he's very good at anticipating the ball coming into the box. I'd put him back in for a few games personally. If anyone deserves another crack, he does.

[mr underhill]

he's obviously pissed Tim off big time.

[sirlordbaltimore]

From what i heard he's simply not impressed anyone in training or reserve matches. I'd never apologise for Sherwood as i think he's totally out of his depth, but to think he'd not play someone for any other reason than he doesn't think he's very good is a bit daft

Kozak never impressed me before his injury either to be honest

I don't agree with that assessment. Kozak's movement off the ball is far superior to that of Gestede's, and the fact he can actually control the ball is a big upgrade. Even for being as tall as Gestede, he seemed to always try and earn his space and bring the ball down on his chest rather than flick it on to a defender. Libor plays off the last defender much better, and realizes that the space in behind the defense is valuable territory.

I fail to understand any reason as to why Sherwood persists with Rudy and refuses to even consider Libor. If Gestede was a years younger and still developing it would make sense, but that is not the case.

He always played well for us. Being banished to the reserves is a load of crap and not helping anybody.
