Robert Lewandowski vs Clement Lenglet
At Allianz Arena last weekend, Robert Lewandowski once again showed why he is the best number nine in the world this season. The Polish striker scored twice and set up the other two goals against Chelsea. He also managed to score in the first leg at Stamford Bridge in February.
Lewandowski currently has 53 goals to his name across all competitions. He might have lost the golden boot award to Ciro Immobile, but his overall goal tally has been best in Europe. Lewandowski is scoring goals for fun and working hard for the team by doing the defensive work and create chances for other forwards, making him a complete number nine.
