I don't think one game is enough to prove anything, sometimes a season isn't.

It's good for such a game to happen, might be enough to trigger law of averages heh.

These games seem to happen more to fancy pepesque teams with false or no 9s etc though. We'll see.

The thing is that Robert, even at his worst, always occupies atleast 2 defenders due to his reputation alone. Other attackers don't have this gravity. Defenders and managers respect him a lot and plan accordingly.

Sensible point.
The basic question anyone is, if you were
a defenders who would you be more attentive to between a Ferran Torres(nobody) and a Lewandowski(many times highest goal scorer in several leagues)?

Lewa might be slower and less potent now, but a half good lewa is better than the best version of a Ferran Torres .

Torres was just running headlessly, huffing and puffing around with zero movementsat.least for this match). A yamal even had 2 superlative 'striker type' movements in the same match Torres was busy flailing his arms and blaming everyone else.

Agreed. One game is too small a sample size. But I even foreclosed goals ads looked out for the often touted "movement" and saw zilch, no movement except for running around.

He is under immense pressure, from a sub and underdog, to a main man spearheading the team into 3 finals. Underdog, wildcard, 2nd man is easy, it's being the everyone's hope pressure that is hard, even Lewandowski after all these years seems to have trouble with it at times.

That excluding the attention he will get now. Ancelotti doesn't do tactics, but Inzaghi does.

I will say the same thing I say about Lewandowski - there are many factors to a bad game - he had good games as a starter, Flick knows what he's doing etc etc. Only problem being, there's not a lot of time left for Flick to test and decide (as even injured Lewandowski might not be completly off the cards) so Ferran better step up soon.
