All roads must lead to Lewandowski: The formula to take advantage of the '9'

The signing of Robert Lewandowski has been an absolute tarpaulin of the FC Barcelona. In spite of being a 'veteran' to his 34 years of age, the Barcelona entity bet for doing with his services during the previous market of signings to reinforce the forward of the group and the played could not them have gone out better. The footballer has consecrated like the main reference of the team, being the 'salvavidas' when the 'popes' burn (as in Valencia) and assuming his role of maximum figure.

Nevertheless, what more has liked of the goleador is his wish to dress the Barcelona T-shirt. The footballer struggled and did all what was to his scope so that the Bayern of Munich accessed to traspasarlo to the City Condal, a gesture that has been very appreciated by all the barcelonismo. Further of this fact, the player has finished to win the affection and the admiration of the fans to base of goals.

In a context complicated, landing in a team under construction, in a new country, a new league, with new mates and under a new idea of game, the '9' already accumulates 18 targets, being surpassed only by an Erling Haaland that has marked 22 so many in which it is, discutiblemente, the team in better state of form of the actuality. The Pole surpasses to players like Mbappé, Neymar or Messi, that are in 11, 10 and 7 goals respectively, by what is clear that his numbers are an authentic 'salvajada'.

A 'lion' tieed up

The statistics of 'Lewy' takes even more merit once knows his participation in the last five parties. In the Classical, the Pole grieve added 15 interventions in 90 minutes; in front of the Villarreal (victory by 3 to 0), 26 actions; 19, against the Athletic (goleada by 4 to 0); 27 in front of the Bayern (defeat, 0-3) and 23 in Valencia (victory by 0 to 1). In total, the average of interventions of Robert in 17 parties is of 29. In any crash has surpassed the 50 and sometime arrived to have only 8 actions, as in the second half in front of the Seville. Thus, the aim of Xavi and of the staff is to find a lot of more times to his goleador.

The '9' definite

During his stage in the club, Lewandowski has left clear that no only lives of the goal. The footballer is a clear example of as it has to move a leading centre, understanding the game to perfection and adding him efficiency. For example, 71% of his finish go inside the three sticks and almost 50% finishes a goal. A disparate. Besides, his very high IQ allows him know act in each moment of the parties, by what only has fallen eight offside times and never in more than an occasion by party. That is to say, in nine meetings has not been penalised neither an alone time.

On the other hand, the footballer has an average of 2,5 balloons lost by party. All these statistics leave in evidence the importance of the Pole in the game of the team, since the responsibility in his football would be a great help for to the Barça to the hour to retain the balloon in contrary field and avoid losses that end in rival counterattacks, which punish in demasía to a group with problems in defensive transitions.

A team under construction

However, to take advantage of the potential maximum of the forward still is missing work for doing. It is clear that the '9' would have to take part a lot of more times in the parties, and is tempting to think that this way would annotate more goals and, therefore, the culés would add more victories. But for this, is vital to improve the collective work. The Barça tends to commit some errors and during several meetings have seen extremely disordered so much in attack as in defence, what is normal in a team under construction. Still like this, the one of Warsaw has them to him 'fixed' and has done what can, that is being a lot of.

In a more worked system, with his mates understanding of better way his diagonals and knowing explode the direct game when the moment require it, Robert could touch the double of balloons and like this increase even more his quota goleadora. Definitely, all this will arrive over time and a lot of work, but the only certainty that there is is that all the ways have to carry to Lewandowski.
