9 - Robert Lewandowski

Tractor is butthurt because he took captain's armband off him, lol.

via phone call 🙄 „Robert, you’re not captain anymore. Bye”. At least that’s what media report.
To treat a player who played ~150 matches for country is poor imho.
Lewa’s resigning is poor as well. He also took an armband from Kuba (Blaszczykowski) in controversial circumstances and Kuba did not resign.

In Poland reactions are mixed, both the coach and Lewa are criticized.

I hope the coach stays the entire next season, so Lewy gets his 2 weeks of rest every now and then. I'm sure he has still a good season in his legs, if he gets the international breaks to rest himself.

Yes it's good news. He should retire anyway without this crying because his ego is to big.
 
What was the reason to take his captaincy away? So bizarre.
Not sure, coach decision.
Probably because of his absence in current matches, especially vs Finland which seems to be a crucial match of the current qualifications (to be 2nd), but the coach knew that much earlier and defended Lewa on a press conference (that he needs a rest, he’s 37 etc).

My take is that poor match vs Moldova forced coach to do something, and he did that 🙄

If it weren't WC in 2026 he would surely have retired by now. He should focus on club football but it's understandable he wants one last big NT tourny.
