Maybe but I wasn't comparing accomplishments or won accolades in the corresponding sports but the phenomenon of a graceful exit from what is an adorable carrer.

But he was not too long ago. An average footballer 'carrer' life is much shorter than the one of a tennis player. Djokovic is done - but he is one arrogant guy but I got to like him for that. Anyway, at his rate of decline, he'll look worse than Lewandowski at Barca, if he does not already...

Kindovlike Federer, Nadal or now Djokovic...I really got to like the Serbian guy, even though he wasn't my favorite for a long time. Why let the World see the decline? Why offer a sad epilog to otherwise an impeccable legendary story? I realy hope Novak will get the last fanfare this year but he...

To tell you the truth. I really wish Robert retired but he deserves to do it on a better tone. Just hoping he'll finish the good job he started this season, with some goals in deciding moments and get some fanfare, then leave. I remember the hate Ribbery and Robben got at Bayern when it was...

Auba would have gotten injured a dozen times. He was known for disciplinary issues. The most probable outcome would have been maybe 15 total goals in 10 full matches in the last 3 years when Lewandowski was here.

So you had that soy boy score a few against that bum team which is what Valencia is and that is your chance to take a poke at Lewy. The next game or not he'll get a chance and there will be 0 outcome, or more likely he'll get injured, cause he is a feeble boy, like some many others who posed a...

Woo fuckin boo... Nope it goes like... Boo fuckin hoo

How come your post is so trollish then? I have not seen you on here with your balanced criticism at the beginning of the season when Lewandowski was the best player in the World, destroying Bayern and RM and leading the pack in other matches. Look in the mirror, you'll see a perfect troll...

Szczęsny is on the ascending form, it will last for some time until he does some red card or passes the ball to the nearest pressing opponent. That's inevitable. Let's hope it will be not until after the CL final, in which, I truly hope to see FC Barcelona present themselves with one Pole in...

Nobody. He is irreplaceable. Anyone else will be abysmally subpar at the moment. No. It was not a perfect opportunity. It was an aerial bid for a ball accompanied by body wrestling struggle. Had it been goal, it would have been Lewandowski's credit only. So, you're either must not have watched...

Basically, Barcelona current tactics do not fit his style. Nueuer would be perfect for that. Maybe he'll adapt or not, there's hardly time for that though. My understanding was he was a temporary patch, not a long term GK procurement anyway. Other than that, it is hard not to like the guy, he is...

I'll try to be unbaised for a moment and for the sake of 'scientific' argument assume the anti-Lewandowski stance too. Here's what gets me though, if Lewandowski's current lack of form means no positive contribution to the overall shape and form of the team, why does he play on. I never heard...

Don't you forget he was a Godsent procurement after Ter Stegen injury. Yeah, Pena did all allright but question is, had he done as good without Szczęsny giving him competition and a reason not to fuck up, which he might have done anyway in another department.

Somehow, I don't feel that Lewandowski replacement will cure the current shortcomings of not being able to convert chances, if these are the shortcomings we complain about. Lewandowski might leave but don't be suprised that anew striker will live up to common expectations of changing things as...

I'd say this match was an unwanted formality that had to be somehow conducted and be over with. Atalanta had more to take out of this, so they were motivated more. I have to confess I fell asleep in my sleeper birth in the 2nd half...did not see the goals at all. Besides, Atalanta wasn't a bad...

Why don't you go to them and tell them that? But you know what? Even I - a declared RL9 fanboy, fully agree - it was a bizarre deal for a club of this statue to sign up an almost past his prime striker and let him stay the full term without much competition within the club squad structure...

Mathematically, the match wasn't won because of Szczesny, but it wasn't lost either and it could have been, had it been not for him. Whatever shortcomings in this match ought to be found somewhere beyond the goalkeeping.

The Lewa hate wave is as bizarre as ridiculous. It is like watching Pretty women - the production of 1990, then trying to do the remake in 2025 with Julia Roberts in the main role again and then being surprised that Julia ain't that young pretty girl no more. :lol:

If there is something to win this season and I trust there is, you need to have a goalkeeper with a decent resume to go through tough and crucial encounters. Szczęsny has it, and Pena does not. In such tough and crucial encounters, these classy goalkeepers live up to their reputation and show...

Of course, I am confident the success of this club this season hinges on him. Flick would be on a headless chicken run without him. Watch the Netflix documentary about Bayern, and how much they relied on him.
