9 - Robert Lewandowski

[JamDav1982]

Late balondor run for Ferran.

 

[Devils]

Would be a huge miss.

Eventhough he's been frustrating, he's come up with such crucial goals all through the season.

 

[JamDav1982]

His height will a miss in own box also v that Inter side.

 

[CatalinR10]

Out for three weeks it seems.

3 ???????

Well that's it then

 

[MasQueCulé]

Very bad news if he is out for the copa or inter...

 

[Loki]

While his injury sucks of course, the team needs to see also the upside. We lose a top finish, but gain 2 legs more to run and press. Flick needs to exploit that.

 

[KingLeo10]

If we make the CL final, he’ll be fresh for that game.

Its not even set on Ferran. Could be Olmo also.

Olmo gets in midfield anyway, Pedri, De Jong, Olmo.

Still an option up top if Ferran not firing.

We all know Olmo is the best AM.

Basically, with Lewa out you lose a goalscorer who could score a key goal at any moment, and you gain on pressing and in midfield. Without Lewa... issue is most of the burden of scoring is gonna fall on Raphinha.

Shouldnt all fall to him.

Ferran will be CF and would need to step up and has 17 goals himself in far less minutes.

Olmo is a natural goal scorer.

Olmo is a natural goal scorer.

yea, and a nightmare for low blocks. could be a big weapon if fit.

Who said I was celebrating injury? I'm celebrating that he's not gonna play. Keep your donkey to yourself

It's your donkey now. Also read your post and the one you respond to, and then own it like a man with a donkey.

Celebrating that he's not gonna play, the only benefit I see is the excuse hanging in the air, resulting in lower pressure. You never know the effect of pressure on the team though, can go both ways. Other than that, Flick seemed to be preparing for Lewandowski Ferran for Inter, which could only help the latter in the box. Idk.
