The story with Messi repeats itself: Barca is dangerously dependent on Lewandowski

Although they are at the top of the La Liga table, Barcelona have one huge problem which, if not solved soon, could ruin their season.

Similar to the time when Lionel Messi was in the team, now Barca depends on the game, the form and especially the goals of Robert Lewandowski. There are other quality footballers in their ranks, most of them representing their countries, but if Lewandowski doesn’t score, things become difficult.

This season, the Pole failed to score in ten matches in Barca’s jersey, and in six of them, the “Catalans” failed to win. It was like that two days ago, in the match against Espanyol at home when the match ended 1-1.

It is clear that he alone cannot carry the team for the whole season, so if he doesn’t get help from Ferran Torres, Ansu Fati, Ousmane Dembele or someone else soon, it is unlikely that Barca will be able to win a trophy.
