Dudek omission explained
Last updated : 22 May 2006 By Al Campbell
The Liverpool goalkeeper was a suprise omission from the polish World Cup squad but the Polish coach says it was Dudek's lack of first team action since his European Cup final heroics a year ago that cost him his place in the squad.
"Dudek has not played at Liverpool for a year. He played in the friendlies against Saudi Arabia and Lithuania because the others could not leave their clubs. Benitez let him go because Dudek was only a reserve and there was no problem with coming to these matches," said Pawel Janas.
