Club career

Early career
In 2006–07, Lewandowski was the Polish third division's top goal scorer with 15 goals, helping Znicz Pruszków win promotion.[3] The next season he was the top scorer in the Polish second division with 21 goals.[3]

Lech Poznań
In June 2008, Lech Poznań signed Lewandowski from Znicz for 1.5 million zlotys.[4][5]
He made his debut for Lech in July 2008 as a sub in a first round UEFA Cup qualifier versus Khazar Lenkoran from Azerbaijan. In that match he scored the only goal of the match. During his Ekstraklasa debut in the first game of the season in a match against GKS Bełchatów he scored a heel flick goal just four minutes after coming into the game late second half. In his first season in the Polish top division, he was second in the goal-scoring charts. The next season, he became the top scorer with 18 goals and helped his team win the 2009–10 championship.

Borussia Dortmund
In 2010, rumors emerged linking Lewandowski with various clubs, particularly Borussia Dortmund, Genoa C.F.C. and Blackburn Rovers.[6][7] On 5 May Borussia Dortmund's general manager Michael Zorc stated that Lewandowski had agreed verbally to join the Bundesliga club.[8] However, negotiations between the clubs went on for several weeks. On 19 May, it was reported that he had undergone medical exams at Borussia[9] and on 11 June 2010, he signed a four-year contract with the German club[10] in a transfer thought to be worth around €4.5 million.[11] On 19 September, he scored his first goal in the Bundesliga to make it 3–0 in the Revierderby against Schalke 04, the game ended 3–1.

2011–12
The 2011–12 Bundesliga campaign saw Lewandowski elevated to an ever-present in the starting eleven. The striker responded by finding the net two times in Dortmund's 3–0 DFB-Pokal first round victory over SV Sandhausen.[12] Lewandowski opened his league account in a 2–0 win over Nürnberg on 20 August 2011, by providing the finishing touch from a Mario Gotze cross.[13] On 1 October, Lewandowski provided an assist and netted a hat-trick in the club's 4–0 victory over FC Augsburg,[14] following a disappointing 3–0 loss to Marseille in the Champions League group stage.[15] Dortmund climbed into second place in the Bundesliga with a comfortable 5–0 victory over FC Köln on 22 October, with Lewandowski finding the net either side of half-time.[16] Dortmund travelled to SC Freiburg on 17 December and Lewandowski struck twice and provided an assist for Kevin Großkreutz, as Dortmund eased to a 4–1 triumph.[17]
Following the winter break, on 22 January 2012 Dortmund thrashed Hamburg 5–1 to move level on points with leaders Bayern Munich; Lewandowski netted twice and added an assist for Jakub Błaszczykowski in the rout.[18] He scored the only goal of the game in a 1–0 home win over Bayern Munich on 11 April.[19] The result gave Dortmund a six point cushion over their title rivals with only four games left to play.[20] On 21 April, Lewandowski provided the assist for Shinji Kagawa's 59th minute goal as Dortmund won 2–0 over Borussia Monchengladbach to seal their second straight title.[21] In the final Bundesliga game of the campaign, Lewandowski scored two first-half goals as Dortmund beat Freiburg 4–0 and celebrated lifting the title.[22]
Lewandowski was named the Bundesliga Player of the Season on 11 May and finished the year as the third top goal scorer with 22 goals, none from the penalty spot, and six assists.[23]
In the final game of the season for Dortmund, he scored a hat-trick in the DFB-Pokal Final, a 5–2 win over Bayern Munich, to earn the club its first league and cup double.[24][25] Lewandowski finished as the DFB-Pokal's top goalscorer, with seven goals from six games.[26]

International career

Lewandowski made three appearances for Poland's U21 team, in friendly matches against England, Belarus and Finland.
His debut for the senior national team came on 10 September 2008, three weeks after his 20th birthday, against San Marino where he came on as a sub and scored one goal. Only Włodzimierz Lubański, who is widely considered a "legend", scored a goal on his debut for the national team at a younger age than Lewandowski, having been 16 at the time.
Playing at Warsaw in the opening match of UEFA Euro 2012, against Greece which ended 1-1, Lewandowski scored the first goal of the competition.

Rooney, Chicharito, Lewandowski.... He would be perfect for United but I think we have something quite unique to offer him; guaranteed starting XI and star player status... United offered Dortmund 16m pound for this one, we could as well just top that? It's not like he's bound for United.. BvB is looking for a quality replacement and i heard rumours of them taking a chance in Bendtner..

Barrios had one great season with Dortmund and is now playing in China. It's too much of a risk.

Watching Dortmund in the Champions League, they looked incredibly average. I think alot of their players are very overhyped.

Dzeko had over 30 gooals and ovver 10 assists in a season, but some people dont rate him at all :shifty:


In that case, these number for Leb shouldnt mean much either.
