Mariusz Lewandowski Profile

A bullish and very effective defensive midfielder with good tactical sense, limitless stamina and physical presence. Lewandowski has plenty of experience playing in central defence and can be called upon to fill in there if the need arises at Euro 2008.

Since moving from Polish club Groclin Dyskobolia to top Ukraine side Shakhtar Donetsk, his game has improved considerably and he has played a key role in three domestic league titles.

What they say: 'We feel we have something to prove after our disappointing early elimination from the World Cup in Germany. It's time for us to stand up.' Mariusz Lewandowski.
