#3 Robert Lewandowski simply can't stop scoring

Lewandowski has been in fine form this season

Over the last seven years, Robert Lewandowski has distinguished himself as one of the premier strikers in the world, with his displays in front of goal for first Borussia Dortmund and presently Bayern Munich placing him a notch above the rest.

Despite turning 31 in August, the Polish international has shown no signs of slowing down in the goalscoring department, and was rewarded with a new contract in August which would see him remain with the Bavarian giants until 2023.

Lewandowski has gone about repaying the faith shown in him in sublime fashion, and currently leads the scorers' chart in the Bundesliga with 10 goals from just six matches.

Rather incredibly, the former Dortmund striker has scored in every single match so far in the league, while he also got off the mark in the Champions League game against Red Star Belgrade and DFB Pokal against Energie Cottbus, with his only blank game coming in the Super Cup loss to Dortmund.

Bayern Munich have lofty ambitions this season, and if they are to achieve them, Robert Lewandowski's goals would be crucial, and on evidence of his displays so far, he can be counted upon to play his part to perfection.
