Sportskeeda's 10 best Forwards of 2017

#8 Robert Lewandowski

What is that hair? Why would he even do something like this?

Robert Lewandowski was very much his amazing goal-scoring self this year - setting a new European record by scoring 16 goals in the World Cup Qualifiers whilst guiding Poland to victory in Group E.

He missed out on the Bundesliga Golden Boot last season by a goal (to the inimitable Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang) but the way he's started this one - 15 goals at one ever 92 minutes - he appears to be hell-bent on correcting it.

For both Poland and Bayern Munich, 'Lewa' was simply outstanding.

Points deducted for that ludicrous blonde haircut, though.
