Robert Lewandowski is setting the tone for another stellar season

After having quiet couple of games for his standards, Robert Lewandowski was in stunning form against Hertha Berlin. The Polish striker managed to score all the four goals for Die Roten on Sunday.  On the back of these goals, the Polish striker is now the top goalscorer in the division this season.

All four goals were different finishes, but the first and second goals summed up Lewandowski’s brilliance. In the first goal, he showed great awareness to be in the right place in a crowded box to score the goal, while the second goal was all about his exquisite touch and ability to drill it in the bottom corner.

Lewandowski will be managed much better this season due to the availability of the second striker. The arrival of Eric Maximin Choupo-Moting will allow Lewandowski to recover and start few games on the bench.

Fresh from winning the UEFA Player of the year, Lewandowski showed once again that he is just going to maintain the same level of performances that he delivered last season. On the back of scoring 55 goals last season, Lewandowski will be looking to better that tally this year after enjoying a good start.
