(46,262 posts)20011/2012 season
73 goals in last 5100 minutes or so just for club, plus 13 more for country
Messi and Barca had a poor season last year (for them) only thing he did was finally win the Copa America (which is easier than winning the Euros)
Plus Lewa was robbed last year when they ridiculously did not award one.

(11,070 posts)and had a hat trick of assists.
Criminal.
Celerity
(46,262 posts)league assists, and one goal.
4 goals and now 3 assists all comps this season
Barca were in shambles last season (and this one)
Lewa already has 25 goals in only 1700 minutes this year (just for Bayern, not counting Poland goals)
48 club goals in only 3400 minutes last season, broke Gerd Muller's Bundesliga goals record
won the a German double last season, won the German Super Cup this season
won FIFA Striker of the Year, European Golden Shoe, IUFA Striker of the Year
and for 2020 (the year they did not, for some insane reason award one)
Lewa won
the Champions League, The FIFA World Club championship, the Bundesliga, The UEFA Super Cup, the DFB Pokal, and the German Super Cup, another Golden Shoe and UEFA Player of the year
Just counting last season (vastly reduced minutes too) and this partial one Lewa has 86 goals, 16 assists for club and country so 102 total goals produced
So counting 2019/2020 (he had 55 goals, 10 assists in only 4200 minutes for club, plus 6 more goals for Poland plus 4 assists, so a total of 61 goals 14 assists in toto)
Lewandowski has scored 147 goals with 30 assists for club and country, and he carries a shit Polish side on his back, unlike Messi with Argentina
and he has won a linear Sextuple (CL, both the European and German super cups, World Club Cup, the Bundesliga title and the DFB Pokal (like the FA Cup)
yet NO Ballon d'Or
Messi, in those 2 and half season has NO league or euro titles, one Copa del Rey, and then the Copa America against the weakest Copa field since the mid 70's
what a fucking joke
