That is up to Laporta and Deco.
Terrible.
I still remember this from day when he signed the contract, Lewa and his agent milked us big.

We need new Striker badly.
You think Lewa is better than current Lamine?
I am talking about goals and the stats are clear.
I don't deny Lamine is a great talent.

Why would we aim that low?

Without goals he barely looks better than Holjund.
At least he has retirement age as a proper excuse.

Still its higher than what we are currently aiming for.

50 goals a season is insane but I think it’s time to say goodbye and leave on a high

Many people tend to remember only the recent past of around 1-2 months. That leads to overhyping players who were underwhelming over the entire season, or attacking players who had a good season overall.
Lewandowski showed over the entire season, that he's still good enough to be the starting striker. By the end of March, he had 38 goals 43 games. How many players in Europe had that goal per game quota this season?
Yes, starting in April his form fell rapidly, he only managed to score against Dortmund twice and in no other game since. Then his injury destroyed the rest of his form and here we are now, insulting him again who was after Salah the best scorer in Europe by the end of March.
He definitely has another good year in him, IF and that's a big IF, he manages to save himself for the crucial April/May months next season. I can't believe I'm saying this, but he should take an example of CR7 in his late Madrid years, where he disappeared the first half of the season, only to start scoring like a madman in the second half.
That's CR7's CL scorer in 16/17 season, Ronaldo was even 4-5 years younger than today's Lewy. Group stage 2 goals, 10 goals since quarters. In the league, he had 10 first half, 15 second half.
In summery, Lewandowski should stop chasing every goal in the first half of the season, save himself and his form for the crucial games. He showed he's still good enough when he's fit and rested, but due to his age, he obviously can't maintain this form over the entire season, his muscle injury a clear proof. He needs more pauses, Flick needs to play Ferran more and then I have no stomach ache going with him into a last season.
Because there is also another reason. We possibly can't buy a world class striker this summer anyways, so work with what we've got and try to do the best with it. I'm sure Flick understands this too and Ferran should definitely stay on the striker position next season, get way more minutes and stop rotating to the wing.

There was never a +1 clause. He signed a 4-year contract (for FFP purposes lowering his yearly amortization costs; though those were not as problematic compared to his wages) but we could have gotten out of it if he wouldn't play enough in third season (this season) which was never gonna happen unless he'd get seriously injured.
Agreement with Bayern Munich for the transfer of Robert Lewandowski
The player will sign a contract with the Club for the next four seasons and the buyout clause has been set at €500 million

Anyone know Messi's goal/shot ratio his first full season at Barca?
I assume much better but I'd never fault Yamal for current conversion rate considering age and team quality.

Or we sell Ferran.
Use that money to get a proper young Striker. Rotate heavily first half of the season.
Then come March whoever is in a better form starts.
Atleast we will have some chance in UCL like this.
I see us not going past quaters let alone the Finals with Lewa and Ferran upfront.
Compare a winger to a striker
Now can you compare their dribbling ability, their creativity on the pitch?
