The Polish striker is unhappy with Barcelona's head-coach's conservative approach

Robert Lewandowski has expressed his criticism at Barcelona manager Xavi for not playing enough attacking players.

The 35-year-old has managed to score only once in three appearances for Blaugrana this season and feels he is not getting the needed support up front.

The ex-Bayern Munich man has pointed out that the situation drastically improves when Ferran Torres and Ansu Fati are brought onto the pitch.

“We are Barça and we are expected not only to win, but also to play good attacking football.”” Lewandowski said.

“Lately that has not been as it should be, so we have been fighting to create more chances in matches… When we see Ferran or Ansu come on, two players who go forward, we create more chances. Sometimes we don’t play with enough attacking players, I don’t have support… so I look for the best solution to the team.”

Barcelona go against Osasuna next in Matchday 4 of La Liga on Sunday.
