diggin in football SZMATEKSIE
In the season 2010/2011 Premier League clubs have tested a total of 290 players. Employment was only 40
All winter sports coaches and directors of the bury the offers from managers, as if looking at szmateksach sweaters that you can still wash and wear. Some players welcome, make us jump on the trampoline, throwing the ball, dictate play. Others have to survive in a snow storm. The most important thing to be, to reach. For many of them riding on the testing that's almost like a second job. Revolve around the continent as nomads, looking for a job. Carefully look at them directors. And in Poland, you can test the everything that moves ...
"Kaleidoscope football costume"
("Sports Magazine" Sport Review, 2/12/2011)
last summer came to Lechia Gdańsk four Nigerians. Official website of the club posted their CV, which advertised the football manager. All had played in the Nigerian league. And that's how! Benjamin Ifeanyi Ede in the colors of Ocean Boys have played 161 matches and scored 123 goals. Colinns Chukwumaobim Nwaneri in 189 meetings had gotten a shocking number of goals - 142nd
beautiful records, but found "Magazine" two months before the test Xamax in the Swiss Neuchatelu acted as a 19-year-olds. In league play, therefore, Nigeria would have since completed a kindergarten ... the best snipers Polish League to score so many goals is, after all, at least 10 years. Oivind Henrik, leading journalist westafricanfootball.com service, also has doubts: "From what I have managed to establish in any season, they have not scored a two-digit goals in the league." Just a small mistake.
No less impressive on paper looked like the other two. Left midfielder, presented as Ismail Alamin, your resume might run for titers of the most effective winger in the world if only to acquire up to 91 goals in 148 meetings were true. Fourth of traveling around Europe, the cluster of football nomads, Ariyo Dapo, advertised as a left defender of Fame FC. Only snag is that the club has not only not playing in the Nigerian league, but in general ... does not exist. After several days of Nigerians ciupasem sent home.
If, however, Paris is a Mecca for artists, fashion designers in Milan, the Gdańsk apparently wanted to gain fame of the place where to check the reliability of CV coming Nigerians. Activists Lechia, niezrażeni setback, therefore, decided to once again try to pick out the offers managers neglected by other footballing gem. Recently he appeared in training some Simone Agana, supposedly from Kwara United. Unfortunately, never in this band has not played ...
While activists continue with confidence to adopt a child offers nimble managers, players from their clubs if they tread more firmly on the ground.
- Nothing in a Cossack on the tests do not riding. This must be said loudly and do not forget about this rule - a nod to the players Legion, which has already seen these tricks hundreds. The test also comes hardest to convince his future teammates. The knowledge that will train only a few days, does not help przyjezdnemu in making new acquaintances. And besides, nobody will give a gift to a new location in the warehouse. Immediately after the arrival
player gets tested, therefore, T-shirt and a room at a nearby hotel, but it also gave them every day wary glances in the locker room, which sometimes is accompanied by derisive laughter. Demonstration of and ability to find yourself in this situation is difficult, because the new colleagues testowanemu look it up to the plate piłkarzowi. Legion Riders rubs his eyes in amazement when the Chinese Dong Fangzhuo eat before a workout for breakfast sausage, beans and fried egg. And then, to improve the taste, croissants and Nutella. I had the strength to move on training.
is also being tested against nature sometimes. It is difficult to present football skills during a blizzard, and in such weather had to show monitored closely by the Legion of Brazilians, Slovaks, and Bosnian.
Buying players is a business and they often conflict of different interests. Coach want this player, sports director of another, and the President also has their favorite.
Poskacz
the trampoline last summer, when Legion was testing a few players, "coach Matt Skorża wanted to cancel them after the first day. Sports director Mark Jozwiak, opting for a less brutal treatment of the managers offered to the players, but the players stopped for a few days in Warsaw. And it was also possible that he is finished testing candidates. In a rather innovative way. One of the test director Jozwiak organized classes namely, from jumping to ... trampoline. Terrified Ukrainian he asked, are you sure the director was all right. A Jozwiak apparently just wanted to see whether the player is smooth both legs. He also carried out with a footballer individual classes.
inquisitiveness during the test is obviously the most desirable indeed. Because then, for example, comes to light that a player - in the past the orbit of interest representation - no results at the level of football wydolnościowe pensioner. So it recently was one of the leading clubs in league.
Many of the players looking for a club orbits for several months and can not long overcome this first step on the road to employment - tests. For some, being a test player it's almost like a second job. Senegalese Mouhamadou Falla przegoniły where the pepper grows not only Legia, Polonia Bytom and Jagiellonia, but also two premier clubs, and one drugoligowym trzecioligowym. Amazing history of the Senegalese football player could serve as a screenplay titled "Prison tests", because on arrival at the Polish borrowed his family.
two months of tests
record holder of the country in recent years, however, is our compatriot - goalkeeper Przemyslaw Kazimierczak, apprentice for several years in the Bolton Wanderers. Since he returned to the country moves from club to club. For half a year could not find work and broke eight tests in the clubs.
- I admit that I had this already fed up. The one club you hear that you're too weak in another, that was too young, or want too much money. Finally the moment came when I wanted to quit playing ball. I thought that as I find a club, look for normal work. The most difficult was the knowledge that for a while again waiting for my next journey, that again, somewhere you have to show someone that I will be assessed again. Altogether these tests, I spent probably about two months - Kazimierczak calculates and lists the stops of his footballing pilgrimage: Slask Wroclaw, Mechanical, Industrial, Warta Poznan, Gornik Leczna, Odra Wodzislaw, LKS Lodz, Gornik Zabrze, Bielsko-Biala Podbeskidzie, Olympia Grudziądz. After Poland, traveled by train or bus, but the money he asked for tickets only two clubs. Finally, the work took him Flota Swinoujscie.
diggin in szmateksie
The joy of the fish-out you send something of value in the football coach dressed like satisfaction with your purchase for ex season sales. The occasion is no end, because the emptying of the club "stores" with members of the "Club Kokos" unnecessary players, it takes the whole year around the world, hence the huge movement in interest. Tests are more like football, however, burial in a cardboard box on the subordinate szmateksie than the sale of clothes from Armani. The greater glory for the man who in this pile, he could pick out something worthy of attention. On finding an interesting specimen of its executive-position Jozwiak was built, who accepted to work in a match unemployed wypatrzonego Moussa Ouattara. The problem is that he believed in his lucky hand and fell into a fatal passion of spending time watching football nomadic herds.
One hit in football totolotku passed the test Lechia, infected following an imperative need to check the highest number of players in the league in recent months (until 34). Admittedly, it fell into the hands beach was the best player of the 280, circulating since May, after Poland, namely Abdou Traore. Also failed Jagiellonia (Thomas Kupisz). However, usually accompanied by a search of treasures less fortunate, and often at the hands of managers, like a rabbit from a hat, pull up a representative WKS infected hepatitis, which could be years before the Legion.
- door to door in the circus menagerie is so much that the whole problem is to somehow sift. Manager thinks this: "I have a career, I'll post it everywhere, it increases the chances that somewhere, it burned out." Tests are not the best form of looking at the players, but the trouble is that no one had better not come up - evaluate the former director of sports Wisla Krakow, Jacek Bednarz. It should still just be able to benefit from this ... For before Takesure Chinyama brought havoc to the Polish league, is not able to convince the coaches in the club during a game of control and was purchased only from Groclin.
Przebieraniec Guinea
Tests always take place after checking applications. Or at least they should. For the clubs, which is not working professional network of Scouting, to come may indeed anyone. In summer, invited Lubin Basin Guinean Sonny Doumbouya based on his resume from the internet. As it turned out, much of it popracował. Also falsified the information on Wikipedia and the network posted a very poor quality video with their alleged feats strzeleckimi. Probably in reality it pictures Souleymane Oulare, the legendary Guinean striker of the 90s (After the end of his career was the main hero of the affair in Belgium, the exploitation of illegal immigrants from Africa), because none of the close-ups face is not seen Doumbouya.
Deception, however, was sewn with thick thread, because the player even claimed that he played the Colorado Rapids and wicemistrzu Croatia. If it claimed to be only for league top scorer Guinea - one he could not verify such information. And disguised are easily caught cheating, and after a few days herded.
not only our club rulers manage to gain time. Doumbouy is also a small Pikus hochsztaplerów ranked in comparison with Ali Dia. 30-year-old Senegalese who won fame worst player in Premier League history. And got it through cheating, and incredibly lucky coincidence. In 1996, Senegalese - every day a player from the lower league clubs in France - not convinced to each one during testing in Bournemouth and Gillingham, so caught in Blyth Spartans. I worked on a way to get to the Premier League. The fake CV wrote that he has scored 13 games in the representation of Senegal and is the cousin of the famous George Weah.
Voice winner, "Golden Balls" sounded too one day in the telephone handset manager Graeme Souness Southampton. AC Milan striker recommendation was enough to Dia in the English club offered a monthly contract. Amazing coincidence of circumstances - the match was canceled provisions, in which he had to present a Senegalese, injuries in the Premier League meeting - meant that Dia entered the field. With applause from supporters who expect a fantastic debut, a cousin of George Weah wonderful. With every second 50-minute performance the truth about the cruel deceiver Secured ever come out to light and was changed to fifteen minutes before the end of the match. It also turned out that the call from Souness praise at Dia agent disguised. Immediately after the match contract with Senegalczykiem resolved, but he could now safely resume writing, he played in the Premier League ...
- Tests usually take place after an earlier inquiry. But if the agent or his client looks very suspicious and unprofessional, preferably immediately break the knowledge. When a guy with whom you do good business over time, and sometimes bad, which tends to tell stupid things, then you need only to such special care. In this business you can make someone into a horse, but really only once - Cooper nods, but it also says that it is worth trying.
- not always come to the weak players. Sometimes yes, that tested the players are simply very good product, because it just lasts for sale somewhere. The world is a lot of players players, and we have the advantage that we are in Europe. Junior Diaz flew from Costa Rica to the Polish, because he had better offers from the West. I told him: "How can you best, you'll go on." I went to Club Brugge.
Determined Diaz Diaz
with Wisla Krakow went to hit the jackpot on the test range. And could even miss the object to be tested.
- enough to look at it to see how he was very tired. So I just told him: "Jesus, Junior, how good to see you!" - Laughs Cooper on this memory, which three years ago he invited Diaz on football tests. He did not know was that the player treats 36-hour journey around the world! Kostarykanin twice landed in Spain, where she trained Wisla. For the first time, despite the intervention of the Ambassador of Costa Rica at the airport in Madrid, customs officers sent the player back to Central America. Lacked visas, and the dispute ended with a vicious deportation. So Diaz flew back to Costa Rica where, due to diplomatic action at the English Foreign Ministry to get permission to return ... He landed, he bought a return ticket, bathed after 120 minutes and again went on a trip across the Atlantic Ocean. 36th passed hours of wandering, when he appeared again in Spain on the ill-fated football ...
tests - When he landed, I told him: "Listen, Junior, you're still free. Relax, wyśpij up. Tomorrow afternoon will be taking part in the commissioning and start testing." He just looked at me, and he had a half day in the air: "I want to go to training. I came here for tests and much want it to pass. What time is practice?" - Suggests to me a watch. "Island in two hours and afternoon I'm on the train. "I looked at him and thought - Oh! interesting player ... I tried to convince him I did not believe that getting out. But Kostarykanin actually turned up at training, the second day too, and another played in a friendly against FC Basel. And that's how! He was one of the best on the pitch, even scoring a goal! I passed a rider tests. But could it be otherwise? - rhetorically asks Cooper.
Wisla - as it would be - she did great business in a determined Kostarykaninie. Footballer, derived from the sale of tests and unusual, it sold the 2.5 years for $ 3.2 million respectively. But rarely in the tested competitors manage to make a golden deal. Typically, the money forfeited, at the airport there is a weak player, and after him are just angry coach, bills to pay and terrible memories. And tests are expensive. Sometimes a few thousand. The costs go up significantly when you happen to canceled flights. Pays for the club if the player had chosen on the basis of observation. Airline tickets is a matter of a player manager when he suggested the club player. The club then only bear the costs of accommodation and meals. Clubs can also be avoided if player arrives at the pre-season testing at the cluster team and resides in a room that is empty. Looking at the player usually takes several days, sometimes the player will participate in sparring. Worse if the "diamond" somewhat incumbents, with the team he trains for a few months in Poland and do not really want to move ...
the command gynecologist
So it was with Kelechim Omeonu Temple. Nigerian couple of years ago, flew to Krakow. Wisla coach recommended him to the Nigerian gynecologist Anthony Egwuatu, working in Lodz. National long-doctor was unable to convince the White trainers Celebrities. Four months waiting for a visa and a decision. And finally succeeded! The engagement was determined team scored three goals Highlands. We do not know if anyone has studied the massive Nigerian. He suffered a nasty disease apparently on the feet, which made it difficult walking, running, not to mention the shooting at goal. To this day, the most famous winner of the tests in the Polish league!
But if everything has to be resolved during the test, it is easy to make a mistake. The recognition of the beads is so difficult that traveling around Europe flock football mediocrities merely blur attention. It's easy to overlook when really talented player.
A few years ago on sprawdzianach stayed in Dyskobolii Nenad Milijas, the teenager from Zemun Belgrade. He played in a friendly during the camp in Austria, wrote well, but did not agree to a proposal for further testing and returned to Serbia. Crvena Zvezda went to, then to represent the country and 3 million to the English Wolverhamptonu.
Many coaches would prefer to be on some names you probably do not remember. After all, before a teenage James Blaszczykowski has been tested in Wisla Krakow, watched him also in LKS Lodz GKS Belchatow and Lech Poznan. Uncle George Chime career also took his nephew on the tests to Austria and Switzerland ...
brother were not Wozniacki
As you can see, famous football names are not always impressive. When the ark was overflowing with the next wave of players, was introduced to a monotonous set Sholi Ameobiego brother of Newcastle (but not passed the test.) Silesia and invited Jagiellonia Marko Krasicia brother star team of Serbia and Juventus. Wroclaw club decided not to employ a tennis player Caroline Wozniacki brother. Because recognizable member of the family and a good CV usually enough to get on the tests, but in the battle to sign a contract count only the actual skills and financial requirements.
Exceptions to this rule in Poland, however, are so frequent that the club continues to knock on doors strange characters from around the world. Thus arrives the Brazilian Helton from second division Chinese American named Niziolek, who had previously kicked the ball in Moldova, the Senegalese Coly, who played in Abu Dhabi, the roots of football Elsamni Egyptian-Japanese, Argentinean Kosanović Melivillo and Serb, who in their own country had just fallen to the Third Division and the U.S. goalkeeper Chris Konopka from the Irish league. For the whole cluster of Belarusians, Ukrainians and Slovaks. But since Polonia Warszawa hired striker Nikolic, who gained one goal for the season in the league Serbian, and gave here a Deleu, Brazil, playing in the fourth division and traders every day peas, it's actually - why not try it?
last season in the league has been tested more than 270 players. Employment was only 40 of them. The rest moved on and will circulate to the effect.
