Watching an old Barcelona vs RM game with Suarez and Benzema as the strikers. Several squandered chances by Suarez and Benzema in just a short period of time. Lewandowski's performance and form and quality would be immediately called into question, but Suarez and Benzema get the pass cuz "they...

Personally I want Flick to bench Lewandowski for the rest of the season. And watch Barcelona crash and burn

You are saying he should not be camping in the box and not be a striker that he's supposed to be but be something like a playmaker, but not be a playmaker? Yeah makes perfect sense there.

Barcelona should probably start using Lewandowski the way he was meant to be used instead of reinventing the wheel. I said it before, Flicks spaghetti system is going to become more useless as they start playing more competitive games in the CL.

Flick giving him more rest means we could be seeing a comeback now.

Blame Lewy all you like but he's been doing his job all season. Yes he's not played that well in the previous few games but Barca didn't drop points in the league solely because of him, but because of defenders like Kounde making several defensive blunders.

Let's see how this "everyone is now a striker" strategy by Flick works in the UCL. Want to make a bet it won't?

This is the problem though. Barcelona continually using Lewandowski in this manner has effectively taken him out of the game. They should be linking up with him up front. Instead they just use him to draw defenders and create space and the highline, but this also isolates him. It's no surprise...

Oh the horror. He missed one chance.

Cool story bro

Barca just needs a midfielder like Kimmich and they are set. Brings more depth and direct play. Get Kroos back from retirement

"He is completely finished" is complete nonsense guess work. The way it works at the professional level is, if you're crap in training day in day out, you won't cut it for the games. That's how it works. And only Flick really knows the reality. You don't. "Wouldn't have made the cut in...

He's been missing tap ins lately. But many other Barca players had chances too. Rafinha squandered 3 good chances as well, but nobody blames him. Here is the thing, without an in goal scoring form Lewy, Barca is done this season. They will win nothing. So yeah, call Lewy a tractor or...

He'll be back strong in the match tomorrow.

He finally got the chances today and failed to convert. He's at fault here. He's definitely angry at his performance and will come back stronger.

Big difference. The problem before was he was getting some service and NOT scoring. Now in this period of "downfall" he's not getting any service. So we have to look at his conversion rate is 30%, which is incredibly good.

Honestly, it's getting ridiculous that the Jabals of Barcelona are wasting 5-6 chances every game instead of passing to Lewandowski.

Thing is he gets fouled a lot and they never apologize either.

Big mistake taking him off. Never take off a player that is in form.

Weak performance by Mallorca
