Jan Urban

On Thursday, July 17, the first PZPN press conference was held with Jan Urban as the coach of the Polish national team. After a short performance of the coach, journalists covered him with their questions.

At the beginning of the conference, the president of PZPN stated that the length of the new coach’s contract was his and the Federation and does not intend to disclose it. He also explained that the long waiting for the name of the new coach is not unusual. As examples, he gave the football teams of Brazil and England, where it went similarly.

Jan Urban at the first conference: A huge honor

– I would like to thank you for your trust. This is an amazing matter, a huge honor and pride to be here. It seems to me that every trainer starts his career, he would like to be here – he began. At the same time, he emphasized that he was aware of the fans’ responsibility and expectations.

There could be a question about Robert Lewandowski and the issue of the captain’s band. In response, Jan Urban stated that a press conference is not a place suitable for solving such a problem. He revealed, however, that his way to try to get out of the situation would be “just a conversation”.

– I want to listen to one, the other, the third side and see how we get out of this situation. I hope it’s good because this is the need for representation. This atmosphere must be good, because in today’s such even ball this famous atmosphere is incredibly important. It is often at key moments that this team wins or another – he said.

Jan Urban about the representation: There will be no revolution

Jan Urban did not want to criticize his predecessors, he did not announce a radical change, nor did he promise the offensive game. He emphasized that he would rather work with the same group of players. – On the other hand, details can be changed. Setting up a player, requirements from the player – he said.

– The task of every coach is to extract as much as possible from the unit, which will cause the team to play much better. The analysis of how our team will play is not always adequate to the potential – he pointed out.

Urban also emphasized several times that the problem is not playing representatives. – I was a professional footballer and you will not fool the body if you did not play two months and think you trained two months. Yes, you are physically ready, but in the same optimal form you will not, because you have not played for a long time – he explained. He admitted that sometimes it is worth betting on a worse footballer, but in the match rhythm.

– A lot of small decisions await us. We will not talk about any revolution. I do not recognize something like the reconstruction of the national team, because it is a natural process – he admitted. – Today I will say that we can expect changes in the national team, but I do not want to make a change for change – he added.
