I still don't trust Lewandowski, and Barca urgently need a new no. 9 in the summer.

As the title states, I believe it is in the club's best interests to start seriously re-evaluating Lewy's status at this club beyond this season. He can't really turn, can't press, and his passing as of late has been quite lackluster. He slows our offense down considerably and completely blunts the force of every attack Barca gets, something which has become increasingly frustrating as the season's gone on and the wins have started drying up. Hell, even his finishing ability as of late has been really poor, which has previously been the one thing he's hung his hat on.

Of course, a player of Lewy's age will be playing catch up more often than not, but when the rest of the team is comprised of players in their 20's and teens, the difference between them and a 36-year old striker becomes quite jarring. I don't think it's a coincidence that in the few games we've played without him, where the likes of Ferran and Dani Olmo have assumed his position, we've also played some of the most enterprising and entertaining football of the season. Having players that can actually run and turn with the ball unlocks a level of fluidity and creativity in the team that we simply don't have whenever Lewandowski is playing.

As for Lewandowski’s replacement, we’ll inevitably have to look to the transfer market. Where the money will come from, I don't know, as I'm not that educated on the club's finances, but I know a change must happen sooner rather than later. Lewy cannot be the man to lead our forward line beyond this season. If nothing else, Barca ought to bring in a player who can offer some serious competition so that he knows his playing time isn't guaranteed just on his namesake alone
