Lastly, we need to realize that this current Xavi team was outplayed ONLY ONCE by Bayern and ONLY in the 2nd leg. The games with Inter were more a matter of a hit and miss. They got lucky and that is IT! I dare to state that if you take 10 two leg competitions between Barcelona and Inter the...

Perhaps, from the perspective of a less emotionally vested kibitzer, advancing to the Europe League final has more merit than advancing to 1/16 of CL and dropping off right there. There's nothing wrong about competing in Europe League and winning it in the final against the likes of Juve ... ...

BVB with Lewandowski's first two seasons there, won Bundesliga titles and got eliminated from CL in the group phase both times as German Champions. In 2010-11 they finished 3rd and in 2011-12 fourth (not even Europa league for them). Yet in 2012-13 they finished 2nd to Bayern and reached the...

Leagues aggregate performances are like business cycles, subjected to up and down motions of pendulum. Everlasting subject to change... For years, I heard that Bundesliga was a one horse race - which it was, and then that Serie A was almost unwatchable - it was for some time, if you ask me...

I must have watched every single game of Bayern between 2014-2022 and while the Lewandowski's role of being the main focal point of the attacking strategy was indisputable, it is important to stress that he was not the only one at Bayern to deliver goals. I should emphasize the season in which...

Unlike Bundesliga, La Liga is still a big deal. So is the Premiership and Serie A. It would not be too daring to say that it is even more important than anything else from the point of view of daily bread earning - the point of view of the basic sport achievements at the club level. Would it be...

Yep.... I am so excited and happy after yesterday's win, secured by Lewandowski - mind you. That today's Sunday feels so good. Benzema might have won Ballon'...whatever. But it is Robert Lewandowski running the show in La Liga theater now.

Another phenomenon that is worth noticing is that so far this season - La Liga and CL - Barcelona was not yet awarded a single penalty kick. By the 12th round in Bundesliga, Lewandowski would have shot at least 5 or 6 goals from PK. I hope a PK will be available to him before the World Cup, so...

Another - often omitted - aspect of Lewandowski's attributes as an asset is his immunity to injuries. It really would take a colossal act of violence to have him knocked down and unable to play for any longer than two games. While at Germany, mind you his 12 years - it happened only twice at...

I watched the entire 90+10 minutes of Real Madrid vs Girona: 1:1 It is absolutely true proposition that FC Barcelona is a contender for La Liga Championship. Disregarding all the spoiled brats on this forum and the chronic malcontents, I must say that I am able to observe there is actually a...

What people need to realize is that this is a new construct, this Barcelona team. It will take at least season long of grinding to have a consistent and expectable performance. Right now, what you have is glimpses of what is ahead. I see 2023 a monumental change in getting results. Similar...

I gotta say that Lewandowski's pedigree in CL, other than the number of goals, does not bring too many memorable moments. He scored important goals in the group stages but in later stages - I mean when Bayern (or earlier BVB) met more formidable opponents, other than that memorable Real Madrid...

I thought it was an acceptable figure of speech. Germans were really hoping that one great piece of weaponry could have changed the outcome of WWII. I am sorry if it is a lack of tact or something....

Take Haalland in BVB... In all the games between Bayern vs BVB Lewandowski was playing the first fiddle. Was it coincidental that Lewandowski never gave the Norwegian giant a close chance in the race of the best scorer? Make no mistake, just like Lewandowski, Haalland's performance is directly...

There is no Wunderwaffe in Football. Getting Lewandowski, or even Halland for that matter, does not guarantee goals in the most significant matches of the season. If it were only that easy...Of course, comparing Messi or Ronaldo to Lewandowski in terms of skills is a daunting taks. The former...

Temp.... That's intentional and attempting to be honest.

Of course, I don't mean to intrude or troll. And I would be dishonest to pretend that I am a Barcelona fan. I just thought that expressing my own disapprobation would be insightful to this "Robert Lewandowski" thread. So perhaps, the next time, someone like you decides to smear Lewandowski's...

Here's why: 1. I heard too many reports that Lewandowski all of a sudden had gotten poor press....so I decided to check it out and this site seemed to be the only one forum I was able to google out. 2. I'd like to think that I am entitled to be Lewandowski's career - style of play and sport...

Some of the members of this forum are unreal about scolding Lewandowski for underachieving like he is some sort of a fraud. I don’t think he deserves it at this stage of his career - you eyes were seeing what they were buying - maybe you should have bough Holland or Mbpape. Why did you not? -...
