I never start these threads EVER.... but this is the best Centre Forward and pure striker playing this decade...with all the talk about Messi & Ronaldo, a bargain will be who ever signs this young kid

I'm not sold on Lewandowski. He profits a lot from the talent on this Dortmund squad. Especially from Goetze, Reus and Kuba (Blaszykowski). Every striker would score with passes from these guys. But I think he would be good at Bayern, too. He is a very good striker, but not world-class.

Falcao is the best true centre forward.

Why are the best Dortmund players leaving to Munich? First Gotze and possibly Lewandowski. 

It's like watching LeBron James and Dwyane Wade leave the Miami Heat to play for the LA Lakers.

Falcao is the best true centre forward???? 

The guy is nothing but a hype machine, His technical ability on the ball is laughable, If it wasn't for him poking 2 yard strikes and taking penalties for Atletico we wouldn't be talking about him, Don't get me wrong he isn't bad but for the hype this shemale gets he is nowhere near as good.

50 million buy out for Falcao, Really??? 

Aguero went for 38 million, Van Persie for 24 and Lewandowski is rated at 28/29 mill and Cavani is 42 million, Why would anyone with half a brain take a punt on this guy at 50 million?? 

He is the Latin version of Andy Carroll, Look how hyped he was and look at him now, Even West Ham don't want to shell out money on him to keep him.

I respectfully disagree. Maybe you dont watch BVB games but Lewa misses so many chances that a striker must score. He has very good tactical knowledge, decent passing and first touch but he has average finishing

As football is played nowadays there are few classic strikers like fat Ronaldo was. Most strikers are all around such as Van Persie, Ronaldo, Messi, Villa, Rooney etc etc. As you will see all big teams they dont have a classic striker like Real, Man, Juve, Barca etc etc

But of course this is my opinion

I disagree that you tend to compare Caroll with Falcao. Caroll has 0 technique and he is a piece of meat like Carew was. Falcao has good speed and finishing skills even with foot. Not a very good technique but he is very passionate and with decent tactical knowledge

All the goals but one this season have been scored in open play not penalties by Lewa....he has value to whoever buys him. He is leading the Bundesliga with goals for the second season running.

Falcao leads LaLiga with penalties scored I believe 8 of his goals have been from the spot....NO Value for Falcao ..and if his buy out is 50 mil thats just lunacy

You compare total different teams. BVB is a team that attacks a lot and scoring a lot goals. With lewa missing a ton of them

Falcao plays with a team that he plays for 1-0

I agree that he is overvalued and i believe Aguero is far better from anyone of them but i think you overvalued Lewa because of one sick game :)

I think Ibra was the best but he is on the wrong side of 30. Aguero needs to score more..with all that talent surrounding him @ City there is no reason he should not be getting 20 goals a season

You can't blame Mancini for Aguero's decline, Sergio has had personal problems what with the divorce and not being able to see his son, That's more of a reason for his decline this year, Also Aguero is too nice, He lets other plays take the spot light from him, He needs to be more ruthless. Lewandowski has the look of a guy who thinks, I may not be a tiki taka player or a pretty poster boy like Ronaldo but i'm going to score goals in bunches and in big games and make you realize i'm knocking on the door of greatness. 

If Lewandowski joins United or City and starts to get the British media hyping about him, You watch how big he will become. If he moves to Bayern i think he will fade away, Simply because Mandzukic is more workman like than him and fans will not want Mandzukic out of the team plus they may not take to him as much because he's an ex BVB player and unlike Goetze he isn't German.
