9 - Robert Lewandowski

[KingLeo10]

Another example of where statistics/raw numbers don't capture the worth of a player.

Eto'o CL stats pale in comparison to Lewa's overall CL stats...but Eto'o tonight would have scored a couple. He was a man for the moments (2 CL goals in 3 finals, Lewa 0 in 2 games)...and that's why he has 3 CLs and 2 back to back trebles while Lewa has only 1 CL.

Stop being prisoners of the moment and shouting "Lewa clear"; players who can decide big games are THE RAREST breed of players. Xavi and Iniesta looked like schoolboys and were the coldest killers you can encounter on the football pitch, for example.

I think he was too eager to score and that backfired on him... Still, our most dangerous player...

 

[gasgas]

He is a mental midget, like Messi

 

[jamrock]

Gotta say Nagelsmann did a good job putting Upamecano on him because he would have folded slow ass de Ligt if he was out there instead

100% correct.

Guess you must have missed Messi in big games pre-2017.

Meanwhile Lewandowski's best performance in the CL till this date or his last top performance in a high stakes game seem to be with Dortmund vs. Real Madrid.....

Loss is on this guy. Supposed to be the leader of the team of the team but manages to miss 2 great chances served on a platter for him. Had we capitalized on our good start to the game and just scored on half of our best chances, we would've broken Bayern before half time.

Their goal shifted the momentum completely for 15 minutes, which was enough to get a second in. Cannot believe how passive MATS and Alonso were.

Took my post away from me, I was about to say no way eto'o misses those chances today, stats don't account for how you handle pressure.

Pre-season Lewa against bayern today.

Good movement first half just unlucky? he will destroy them in the 2nd leg 👍🏼

Messi has destroyed SAF United in 2 CL finals, decided huge CL semi finals (RM, Bayern), and destroyed numerous teams in CL KOs (Bayern, Chelsea, Arsenal, Milan). Even has some good performances in losing efforts like v Pool CL SFs.

Low effort trolling

I'm not even mentioning the 10 or so match winning performances he has in El Clasico and v AM.

Somebody was still wearing that Bayern jersey.

 

[Givenchy]

Agent Lewy

Upaman had him in his pocket most of the game.

 

[jamrock]

Maybe he's a mole.

 

[Catta]

Suarez clear as his generations best striker.
