Robert Lewandowski, Barça striker, gave an interview to ESPN in which he spoke about various current issues and his adaptation to the Barça team in these first months at the club. In addition, he sent a clear message for next season, for which he asked for "a change or two to make the team more competitive." Check the LaLiga table.
"There is a good team, maybe one, two changes and make this team not perfect, but more competitive on average to have more weight next season. Sometimes we talk about small things, but if you change this, it will be even more spectacular", sentenced Lewandowski, who wants to be competitive again in the maximum continental competition.
The Pole acknowledged that the Barça team was not yet ready for the Champions League. "This season we had problems in the Champions League and that is what we must correct, but up to now we are not ready to fight at the highest level for the three titles: Champions League, League and Cup. It is impossible, it is legitimate. In football it is impossible to change something in a week or a month, it takes time”.
Lewandowski assured that playing in the League had always been his wish. “You know that Barcelona have many problems. But when I saw the path they wanted to take, I said, 'I can be a part of this.' I saw the challenge and told myself that I was ready to take it on. I may be 34 years old, but it's just a number and I know I can play several years at the highest level, I don't know exactly how many, but I've always been happy to play. Mental things matter more to me than physical ones", sentenced Lewandowski, who considered that "we have a good team. Maybe a change or two would make him stronger, not perfect, but more competitive."
The forward, top scorer in the League, also pointed out that "I knew that my first season here would not be adequate to think about individual prizes" and he is looking forward to the duel against Real Madrid this coming Sunday at the Spotify Camp Nou. "El Clásico is the most important club game in the world because there are a lot of fans watching it. Even me a few years ago, when I wasn't in Barcelona, I really wanted El Clásico. Now I'm part of El Clásico and that's incredible for me." , he concluded.
