Libor Kozak

[Phil from the upper holte]

Let's face it. He's finished

Let's face it. He's finished

Sadly I believe you may be correct.

I really hope yesterday's performance dispels the feeling on here that Kodak is good.

He's a poor man's Tony Cascarino.

I think it would be a photo finish between the two.

They are both that slow, you could monitor the finish with a brass etching!

*edit - noticed it was a Kodak / photo pun - bravo*

[QuintonVilla]

Never thought I'd say it but we actually missed Gestede when he went off. Kozak looked like he was running in treacle, and I think Gestede would have scored that headed chance.

It's sad. I liked Kozak when he first came in. He looked promising. He scored a few goals and looked fairly good as cover for Benteke. But that injury, and every subsequent injury set back has absolutely finished him at high level football. At his age I'm not sure he can get back to the level required. His confidence in front of goal looks shot too. Last season in his brief run in the team his finishing had gone to shit.

[saunders_heroes]

Can't remember him winning any header yesterday apart from the one he should have scored from. When he came on he put us under pressure because the defender beat him to the ball and the ball was back in our half every time.
Not good enough, sadly.

Maybe but he missed two equally good chances on Tuesday night so he's capable of missing them as well. It does prove the need for another striker though.

[Malandro]

He looked like he'd spent time in Terry Waite's Beirut accommodation.
I thought it was Niles Crane when he jogged on.

[saunders_heroes]

Well we did miss Gestede when he went off because he won practically everything in the air which then eases pressure on our defence. As soon as Kozak came on the ball was back in our own half every time we had a goal kick or clearance.

Lot's wife has more movement than both Kozak and Rudy and I don't think McCormack will thrive until he has a pacey No 9 to play off. Footyskillz must have a recommendation?

[Chris Jameson]

I've only seen him twice in the flesh so to speak, both times he was useless.

Don't like to quote myself but the two times I saw him were before the injury, can only imagine what he's like now.

[Toronto Villa]

There was literally no spring in his jump and he's not a small bloke. He seemed very lead footed and simply a yard off the pace, if I'm being generous. The incisiveness he once had wasn't there and that has to be because of fitness and match sharpness.

You're spot on about his jumping. I said the same yesterday, it was like he had chewing gum on the sole of his boots because he barely got off the ground.

He simply looked fu*ked as soon as he came on.
Is he doing extra training for the London Marathon or something?

I like the Kozak I've seen at times but he was very poor yesterday.

[not3bad]

I saw him score a nice goal for the under 23's last week so I was hopeful when he came on but I guess that shows the gulf between first team and reserve football.
