Robert Lewandowski has been pretty critical of Bayern Munich's transfer policy - and of his teammates' "policy" of not creating enough chances for him to be Bundesliga's top scorer - and he was apparently one of the powerful few who forced Carlo Ancelotti... but to see him play on the field, you'd think everything was just perfect.

The Pole has this uncanny knack of keeping off-field issues off the field and focus all of his considerable powers onto the one thing he does better than most - score goals. He is the most important cog of this Bayern machine, and Jupp Heyneckes is already loving having him at his disposal.

It's not just the fact that he has 12 goals in 14, but the fact that whenever he hasn't played (hello, that away performance against Celtic) Bayern have looked a shadow of themselves... there can be no greater signifier of a footballer's quality than that.
