Feedthewolf 4,846 Posted September 22, 2015 Yeah I know this doesn''t really belong here, but I don''t care.Bayern Munich were 1-0 down at home to Wolfsburg at half time, so they brought on Lewandowski.He scored five goals in nine minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kick it off 1,948 Posted September 22, 2015 [quote user="mrs miggins"]Total lack of ambition by the club in the transfer window.[/quote]Lewa was recommended to Gunn when he was at Lech Poznan in 2009. No idea whether he followed through with it and actually looked at him, but his name was put forward to Gunny via email and Gunny acknowledged and replied to the email. C''est la vie.

Crabbycanary3 994 Posted September 22, 2015 That is amazing if that is right KIO. What with Beckham ''slipping'' through our fingers, who else have we decided was not going to look good in green and yellow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For the first time he is looking like a world class forward for Poland too, he''s never really shone at international level before but he has been excellent over recent months.Here are the goals by the way, it''s not just the feat of smashing 5 in 9 mins, the quality of the goals is excellent - 4 and 5 are particularly nice, but 2 is a great hit too!

Mr Angry 1,554 Posted September 22, 2015 I think Gunny made the right decision and bought Grant Holt instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CDMullins 436 Posted September 23, 2015 Was on his way to sign for Blackburn in 2008 but the famous Ash Cloud meant his flight had to be cancelled, so he drove from Poland to Germany and signed for Dortmund instead! The rest as they say, is history! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Angry 1,554 Posted September 23, 2015 Ok, I see where the confusion of dates comes from. A Daily Mail article states that Tony Mowbray was interested in him in November 2008-Mowbray was WBA manager at the time. The deal didn''t go through as Lewandovski decided that he needed to develop further at Poznan.Mowbray was still interested when he was Celtic manager but couldn''t afford him-Blackburn invited him to watch a match, which he was unable to attend because of the ash cloud. Dortmund stepped in to sign him instead-this was in June 2010. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chicken 0 Posted September 23, 2015 I would really suggest that people have a good read of what they write sometimes!Your dad suggesting him as a transfer target, in 2009, when we had been relegated to League 1 - not really likely was it? A team playing regularly in the Europa League etc. Especially if he turned down other, higher placed teams, to develop further there.I doubt that even then, he would have gone anywhere other than to a team with decent aspirations in a top tier.Oh, and my favourite goal was the scissor kick. Got to be one of the best examples of it that I have seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
True Grit 26 Posted September 23, 2015 The sort of marquee player we could have, would have (if not for Mc/Neil) and should have signed in the summer. I ask you this: Mulumbu, Brady, Dorrans or Ledwandowski? 3 Shetland ponies, or one prime shire horse? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
