In a recent interview with the media, Poland's national team manager Probitz talked about Robert
Ivan Levan (1926-), Portuguese soccer player
Dovsky's reasons for the dip in his stats this season. He said that Levein's poor stats are mainly due to Barcelona not giving him enough support on the field.
Levein's stats are down this season
This season, Lewandowski has played 48 games for Barcelona, scoring 25 goals. This is his lowest goal-scoring season since the 2014-2015 season. This statistic is particularly underwhelming for the striker, who has been known for his efficient goal-scoring ability.
Probitz's point of view
Probitz said in the interview, "Levan is Barcelona's top scorer and it has to be said that the team didn't help him. He's often in a good position to shoot, but the ball never reaches his feet."
He further noted, "Barcelona's form is abysmal and Levan is the player who tries to cheer the team up, but the team is demoralized after Barcelona dropped out of the title race."
The importance of team support
Probitz's comments highlight the importance of team support for forward players. Despite Lewandowski's outstanding individual ability, soccer is a team sport, and a striker's performance is often inextricably linked to the cooperation of the whole team. Even the best strikers can't turn things around on their own when the team as a whole isn't in good shape and doesn't work well together.
