9 - Robert Lewandowski

[JohnN]

No point in talking about prime Lewa.. sorry to say but he is done guys. In a game like this, where the support is there, the team is clicking, home game and he has zero good actions. His impact has been negative. sorry to say, i really wanted him to come good.

Lol Youtube videos are very misleading. They only take good moments. Do better.

"misleading" is to judge Lewy's abilities by his grandpa version. You would have been rightfully ridiculed for such nonsense 5-6 years ago

Goes to show how overrated he was in his prime in the BayernLiga as a flat track bully.

I am sure you could make an even longer video of his woeful touches, if so inclined.

I am not getting into a debate with a guy who thinks you can prove a player's ability with highlights videos.

 

[MonteCuler]

Not really a monster but in prime his technique was very good it's sad how he fell off in that aspect

But even goalscoring wise he's not it anymore, look at that chance in his prime he would've buried it in his sleep

Right now he's really ass but we need to deal with it, we're winning and we'll see if it's sustainable against the best of teams.

How do you want me to prove Lewy had a great first touch then?

It's just your subjective opinion against a compilation of actual touches. If you watched him in his prime you'd know.

 

[Barcaman]

This guy is beyond finished. Pathetic

You think Youtube videos - which highlight good and omit bad - prove anything.

The guy was a flat track bully who beat up on a one team league and consistently failed in Europe.

 

[Maradona37]

I mean as soon as someone starts pulling out the YouTube videos I know to ignore them. Rookie error.

Those videos can make guys like Heskey and Garnacho look like superstars.

Stop being emotional. Compare his CL stats to those of Suarez who had Messi, Iniesta and Neymar feeding him

I realize YouTube videos are not conclusive evidence of any player'a ability, that goes without saying FFS. I just showed you the first touch Lewandowski used to have at Bayern, and he used to have it with consistent execution. If you know you know. But you are hellbent on this weird ad hominem attack

It always comes back to stats with guys like you. Because outside of scoring, he isn't special at all.

Suarez is a far more talented pure footballer. You are obviously a stats merchant.

Also, you obviously have the attitude that players will automatically get better stats in a better team. When actually they usually maximise their stats in poor teams cos everything goes through them and they'd just be another player in a better team. The Bruno Fernandes special.

Ultimately he cannot make that pass and likely couldn't in his prime either. He just hasn't got it - weight of pass, genius etc. No matter how many goals he scores. Other people here agree with me.

I am not a stat merchant lol stop putting people in categories based on one thing they say

Yeah it's ad hominem to say he was overrated. That sums up Lewa - if you don't lick his arsehole it is a personal attack.

His touch was erratic in his prime, I watched him. Yes he has good touches, like all top players, but he also had plenty bad. But you'll never find videos of his awful touches because they are airbrushed from history.

I regularly criticize Lewy here because he is finished. But to say he wasn't a beast in his prime is just stupid

Well you brought up Suarez and implied Lewy is better cos he has more CL goals. If it walks and quacks like a duck...
