Does data 'kill' the story? Lewandowski's great numbers since his arrival at Barça

The performance of Robert Lewandowski with the FC Barcelona has generated diverse opinions in the Catalan press and in the fanatical Barcelona. Although many have criticised to the '9' for having gone down his promerio goleador regarding his two last seasons with the Bayern Munich (surpassed the goal by party in average, with 98 so many between September of 2020 and June 2022), the true is that the numbers of the Pole like culé are not for nothing bad.

In 60 official parties, 'Lewy' great 41 goals, with an average of 0.68 goals by meeting, without explaining the 12 assistances that has given up to now. In his first four seasons in Germany, with the Borussia Dortmund, his average was of 0.55 so many by party, whereas in the Bayern this average went up to an incredible 0.92 product of 344 goals in 371 official apparitions. Further of his age (35), the one of Warsaw follows showing full force.

Lewandowski Has followed 'wetting' to good rhythm with the Barça

Without explaining the done with the Bayern in the first-half of 2022, Robert closed the year happened with 5 goals in 6 parties in Champions and other 13 so many in the first 14 days of LaLiga. After the stop mundialista, the '9' added 10 goals in the following 20 days, taking into account that the forward lost three parties by sanction and one by one overloads physical. In total, went 23 goals in 34 parties, sufficient to ensure the 'pichichi' and his first League in Spain.

However, the bajón was remarkable between the first and the second stretch of the 2022/23. 'Lewy' Began to a rhythm arrollador, similar to the of his last seasons in Germany, but between January and May went down notably his production. The physical wear of Qatar 2022 happened him bill and, in the beginning of the 2023/24, his numbers have not improved too much. In the first 11 days of LaLiga, the '9' great 7 so many, 5 less than the past season to these heights (12). Regarding the assistances, the production is identical (4).

The comparative between the Lewandowski of 2022 with the one of 2023 leaves opened the debate

In this sense, if we compare the achieved in the year calendar by Lewandowski in 2022 regarding the 2023, the difference is remarkable. To the 18 converted goals with the Barça in 15 parties add the 20 so many that added in his last 21 parties with the Bayern, totalizando 38 goals in 36 parties the past year. In 2023, his production has fallen to 23 goals in 39 parties with the ones of Xavi Hernández, subtracting him at least 7 meetings for contesting between League and Champions if it does not suffer some another physical problem.

Certainly, there is a remarkable difference, more considering that in 2022 played less to level of clubs by the dispute of the World-wide between November and December. Still like this, Lewandowski keeps on being the best leading centre of LaLiga and one of the best of Europe. His numbers in the 22/23 did not reach him to litigate by the Boot of Gold, but if to win two titles in Barcelona. In spite of the criticisms, the '9' has answered and his hierarchy and professionalism are indisputable for the directive and the technical body, although the priority was to advance the arrival of Vitor Roque not to depend exclusively of the production of the historical Polish player.
