If you ask Hansi Flick who is the best striker of the last ten years, he will choose neither Messi nor Cristiano Ronaldo.
The German technician, who replaced Xavi on the Barça bench, has seen many impressive attackers during his career.
Before coming to Barça, Hansi Flick coached Hoffenheim for five seasons (2000-05). In 2006, he joined the German team as assistant to Jürgen Löw.
During his career, the technician declared that he had not seen a scorer of Lewandowski’s caliber. He thus declared: “Lewandowski is the best striker of the last ten years.”
Lewandowski arrived at Barça in the summer of 2022, from Bayern Munich. After 8 seasons spent in Bavaria, he joined the Catalan Club as the reigning double European Golden Shoe.
He is in the historical top 5 scorers in the Champions League and as the 2nd top scorer in the history of the Bundesliga.
Robert Lewandowski started this season all fired up. A week ago, he scored three times in 25 minutes during the match between FC Barcelona and Alavés (0-3).
At 36, the Polish striker is Pichichi of La Liga. Despite his age, he shows great performance on the pitch.
It should be noted that this is Robert Lewandowski’s third hat-trick with the Catalan Club. At Bayern, he achieved it 20 times. In total, he achieved 27 at club level.
In La Liga, Lewandowski has 10 goals in 9 days. He scored 4 more goals than the 2nd in the ranking, Ayoze Pérez of Villarreal.
The Pole from Barça scored twice in Valencia and Villarreal, before scoring against Athletic Club, Valladolid and Getafe in Montjuic.
