You're probably right about his ankles but he hasn't missed to many games by the looks of things. I hope the bloke isn't just playing through injuries because Spuds need him to.
Reluctant Striker Posted August 20, 2021 Posted August 20, 2021 Irrespective of how any individual may rate the English & German leagues, or even the 2 players, Lewandowski & Kane, in comparison to each other, it notoriously can take a season or 2 for a player to get up to speed in any new league. Personally, if he does move with a hefty price tag, not just mega wage, I can only see him going to PSG, La Liga or Serie A.

It’s not disrespect, it’s an opinion. The players I’ve mentioned would score just as many as he has in that league. He’s not even the best striker in the league anymore. A 21 year old is who plays in a much weaker team. I think his all around game is still better than Haaland's tbh. It's not that long ago Lewandowski was robbed of a Balon d'Or because of COVID - I think it was reasonable to say he was definitely one of the top 2 players in Europe and his impact on Bayern that season where they ended up CL winners during COVID should not be understated. I think if you put Lewandowski on any of those teams of the players you mentioned, he'd have a similar goal record. The man is fucking quality.
Subscriber Dan+ Posted August 21, 2021 Subscriber Posted August 21, 2021 Appears from this thread he's actually slightly underrated. He's an incredible forward.
Redcanuck Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 Bayern want £100m for an OAP? At 33 there's no resale value, only the oil rich nation clubs could afford him.
Danny Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 @JoshBRFC Mbappe plays in France for PSG, if he can’t do Lewy numbers there then he can’t do it in Germany

Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted August 23, 2021 Subscriber Posted August 23, 2021 If he plays in a farmers league he is the Shepherd. One of the best couple strikers of our generation period, full stop.

We're also a farmers league
Cicero Posted August 23, 2021 Posted August 23, 2021 When was the last time a prolific striker in the Bundesliga came to the Premier League and still produced similar or equivalent numbers?

Dr. Gonzo Posted August 23, 2021 Posted August 23, 2021 Also didn't Son come from the Bundesliga? And Firmino's got a better record in front of goal with us than he did at Hoffenheim (although I think he played more as a midfielder/sometiems on the left wing for them).
nudge Posted August 23, 2021 Posted August 23, 2021 Also does Sane count? He's done better in England than in Germany

Especially after being subbed at HT on the weekend, being replaced by an 18 year old that nearly instantaneously has more impact. Not going to get to crazy but Musiala almost had more impact last season to I reckon. Anyways I woulda said De Bruyne was a budding star before moving your way, England just takes the credit

I think the Bundesliga was a good showcase for him and if I'm honest, a bit too easy.

I'm confused. He played for us on loan in 2012/13 season. Mourinho returned to Chelsea for 2013/14 season. Are you confusing Werder with Wolfsburg, by any chance?
