[Barcaman]

So he's not that well liked by his teammates.

 

[KingLeo10]

This is why Bayern only managed 1 CL from his 9 years there.

He plays for himself too much.

 

[Horatio]

So he's not that well liked by his teammates.

The plot thickens…

 

[HeadElastico]

Never liked his personality and not hard to believe he was an even bigger prick in a lower profile team like Poland.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

It's not like Poland needs Lewy Vs Finland. They will definitely finish at least second in their group.

Either way not a good look on Lewy.

but deciding to miss this vital game against Finland

There are no vital games in this friendly tournament.

 

[DonAK]

There are no vital games in this friendly tournament.

It is because it's a World Cup qualification game and they have Netherlands in their group as well.

I thought it was a normal friendly as well, but it's an important game for the team that probably ends 2nd in the group and have a chance to go to WC playoffs I think.

I hope all this kruffefle opened Deco's and the board's eyes.
If possible we definitely need his replacement this summer.
Would much rather have any LW on loan and a new striker than a New LW for 60m and no striker.

Yesterday four of the most important PL team players forced the FA to release a message at 11pm that they were not the initiators of the captain change. They were pointed out by media as the initiators of the change.
atmosphere in the team is very bad right now as media report.
I predict that if we loose to Finland the coach is out.

Yea and the new captain injured himself and won’t play against Finland 🙄
Once again perfect timing, this is some advanced tactic from our coach 🤦‍♂️

 

[DHorozov]

Well, not sure what exactly happened and who is at fault, but I think one thing is for certain... after the coach and the new captain went out to the press and said these things, Lewa is never coming back to play for Poland...

Which again from Barca point of view is great, more rest now and more rest during the national game pauses in the season...

could be
but anyway he deserves better farewell

 

[Joan]

Have the Poles abandoned Lewa?

Be interesting to follow the tread next season.

Tempt might be the last of Mohicans.
