R9, Van Basten and Muller are the best ever.

Lewy is not as good as them.

He's above the likes of Ibra and Benzema though. Unsure when this Benzema overrating became a thing. Perez PR machine working overhours.

Lewandowski is surely the best striker since R9

No, Benz isnt overrated. Even to the time when Ronaldo was there Benz played a key role for their cl wins.
 
You go way overboard with this guy... I bet you havent even seen most of the great play, and you rely solely on statistics. Lewy has scored a shitload of goals but I`ve never seen him dribble past anyone or playmake in the way Benz and Luisito have. Watch his hattrick goals againt Cologne.

Strikers are different and have their own strengths and weaknesses. Bayern has the most dribblings in Europe's top leagues - they do not have Lewy to do dribblings... But he is great "losing" his defenders when it is necessary and finishing his chances. Yes, Lewy is part of a functioning offense - but he is a big part in making this offense to function.

I think he's the best striker of the 2010-present day generation. His last few years have got him top spot in my opinion. Wouldn't disagree too much if people thought Suarez was better but think Lewa has pipped it for me.

It's true he gets great service pretty much every game and Bayern do create numerous chances but he's very crucial to their build up too. Frequently drops deep and links play. You're not gonna get much in the way of silky eye-pleasing skill but he's very effective.

He cannot dribble and win matches on his own like prime Luisito did. He is just a finisher.

This mythical version of "prime Luisito" didn't win many matches on his own.

His 13-14 EPL season is incredibly overhyped. He mostly scored v mid-table and bottom feeders.

Great striker and one of the best of this generation, but he's treated like he was a R9 or a Romario or a MVB by some.

Romario was also mostly a finisher.

Maybe Suarez was somewhat overrated but he was also miles better as a playmaker/chance creator then Lewandowski.
Led La Liga in assists a couple of times.

Overall i do agee that Lewandowski has indeed surpassed the likes of Suarez and Ibrahimovic.

ya Luis had some amazing matches like the away match against psg, oooh how beautiful were the goals but people speak about him like he was the fusion of Pele, R9 and Eto'o.

Even though he didnt score against top4 he was amazing against the other teams, missed first 5 matches or something and still scored 31 goals without pens. Also he had a lot of amazing goals.

Well deserved. Fifa finally getting something right.

Feel sad for his haters. The guy never stops and is relentlessly scoring and breaking records.
