Was playing almost as a CAM/CM for most of the game and making late runs into the box(ofcourse the idiots he was playing with never got the ball anywhere near him).

RL9's Euro group: France, Netherlands, Austria(on fire under Rangnick).

RL9's Nations League group: Portugal, Croatia, Scotland.


:lol: :lol:


Imagine if he played for Germany NT like Klose and Podolski!
Holly Shit! I did not know they drew the groups already...Poland's clear underdog at Euros ... They may fight on equal terms with Austria but overcoming France and Netherlands equals miracle.

He singlehandedly spanked Sweden with bangers in the last Euros. Unfortunately, his teammates were so awful that they conceded goals for fun and they couldn't qualify for the round of 16.

He was one of the worst players on the pitch. I hope he will show up for you in CL.
He was very good yesterday. Dropped deep, got on the ball and made things happen.


Him and Zalewski were the only players who made things happen on the ball.


Lewy was making sprints even in the second half of Extra Time. Remarkable stamina and fitness.


What he was really poor at was pressing off the ball. Was walking off the ball and never pressing.


The current team you guys are playing is very poor on the ball. The defenders and midfielders struggle to string a couple of progressive passes in one phase of play. Played better attacking Football under Paolo Sousa.

Playing for the national team has always been a big deal for Lewandowski. So, quite the contrary, after rescuing the Euro qualifying compaing, it must have been a moral boost for him. I mean, he looked happy like a baby withy a candy after the game...So, as we all know quite well, good morale paints good confidence, which propels good performance. 💪 He'll sure recover for the next games...

We must have watched diffrent games. He did absolutelly nothing for the team and without him the result would be exactly the same. He was lost in the action. You say he made things happen. What exactly do you mean? 0 shots on target or 0 key passes say it all. Sure he made sprints but ahe was not the only one. The most dangerous shot was made by Piotrowski who I guess is no name for most Barca fans. I agree Zalewski was good but Frankowski was even better and at least 4 more players were better than Lewy.

By contrast Wales ST Moore was imo the best player on the pitch, way better than Lewy.

Yesterday's game, for someone not vested emotionally, wasn't that entertaining to begin with, anyway. Except, perhaps, the great stadium atmosphere. That was mostly a physical fight without too many fireworks, and it was decided in those intricate, subtle and sometimes out of camera focus details which quite involved Lewandowski...as a result he will shine less and less in his new role he plays for NT. Poland is an average team in the international arena, so with the average service availabile there, we cannot expect someone like him, to perform similarly like does for the club. Although, they might improve for the Euro, because their new manager is a guy with balls.

Absolutely agree with you but you must take into consideration that Wales is average team as well. Look at Moore - 2 excellent headers and one assist (fortunately his teammate was offside) Lewy is great player and to me one of the best striker ever (I know many disagree with me) but last 2 games were just bad for him. IMO you as Barca fans had no chance to see prime Lewy at all. His first 6 months were good but nowhere near his best Bayern performance.

He is bad for Poland now because he's just a goal poacher at the moment and does little else. These players tend to struggle with weaker teams, especially internationally (games are usually more closed) even though Poland isnt really that bad, his group performance was awful and seems to not be doing much better now.

He could still be good for us if we create a lot of chances but doesn't offer much else, as we know.

Agreed but they did get a little glimpse before the WC. Although peak RL9 was even better than that.
I'm an RL9 fan not a Barca fan(my club is Liverpool).
