"Podolski must do more," says Roberto Mancini

Posted by Ix Techau about 9 years ago · 3 replies

Podolski must do more. What he's doing is not enough and he's the first to recognise that. Given the way [Xerdan Shaqiri] played when he came on [for Podolski], then yes [it was a mistake to leave him out to start with].

Ouch.

How did he get over 100 caps for Germany? Was he a completely different player then?

Podolski has never been a great player to be fair. Here's what I wrote about him on Arsenal Report three years ago (before he signed):

Podolski has only ever excelled at FC Koln, unable to evolve and further his career when Bayern Munich bought him in 2006. In fact, he was even moved to Bayern’s second team for the 2007-2008 season, as Luca Toni moved ahead of him in the pecking order. Podolski is a risk, and might be too expensive with 18 months left on his contract.
