#3. Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich)

RSC Anderlecht v Bayern Muenchen - UEFA Champions League
The striker has scored plenty goals

Polish striker, Robert Lewandowski has been one of the most consistent performers in Europe for the past few years. In fact, he has come close to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo's level on a number of occasions in his career.

This season, the Bayern Munich superstar has been at an amazing level. He has led the German champions to another consecutive Bundesliga title, scoring 28 goals in 28 appearances. He also put the club in the final of the DFB Pokal with 5 goals to his name.

In the UEFA Champions League, the attacker scored 5 times, helping The Bavarians to make it to the semi-finals of the European tournament. This means that the striker has scored more goals than Ronaldo (24) and is very close to Lionel Messi (29) in the domestic league this campaign. He has also claimed the Bundesliga for his club while Ronaldo is yet to win any trophy this season.

The striker truly deserves to be compared with the duo, due to the kind of impact he has had on his team so far
