Understanding it as nine is already normal for us. We had him behind the winger, but he has already scored 10 goals as a striker who can replace Lewandowski. The Pole rested again, he didn't play a minute. It will be fresh for a Sunday match with Sevilla – said the journalist. – A reserve attacker who scores 10 goals is very important – he concluded in the context of the Spaniard.
