[@olggg9740]

I think Lewandowski’s uniqueness comes from his humble beginnings and so-called „cold” upbringing you could experience in the post-Soviet countries in the 1980s and 1990s. Being a teenager back then taught you endurance, metal resilience and above all, gave you a motivation to get out of there and „be more”. What kept Lewy humble is also his gratefulness and drive to improve and learn. He is an exemplary athletes! Such a great interview :)

[@alinam.1710]

Stereotypes are the worst because they have little to do with the truth. "Cold rearing"? Some have loving parents, others don't. And it has nothing to do with nationality. And the mentality of Poles, Czechs or Bulgarians is different. However, following the term "cold rearing", I would rather describe the English, where small children spend entire years in boarding schools away from their families. Lewandowski was raised in an intelligent, loving family, I think that many factors contributed to his success, but he owes the most to himself. He is unique.

[@olggg9740]

⁠@@alinam.1710I don’t claim I know everything about his childhood. Neither I know his perception of it. From his interviews and behaviour I can only conclude he loves his parents and family very much. What I meant through using this expression of cold upbringing is that resources in the 80s and 90s were very limited what was pushing people to go and search for alternatives and improvements to their lives. Also, parents were loving and caring, but their emotionality was restrained by daily struggles they had to face at the time. I am not diminishing his parents. I am only pointing at one of the factors that I believe some players who are now teenagers, also in the post-Soviet states, will never experience.

[@alinam.1710]

@@olggg9740 Ok. But this is still a big simplification. And what kind of term is "post-Soviet countries"? Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary and a few other countries never belonged to the USSR, they had their own statehood, unlike Lithuania, Estonia or Ukraine. Yes, they were in the same system and were subject to huge influences, but they never surrendered to this criminal power and never gave up their efforts to regain complete sovereignty. And the difficulties in the 90s, affected some very much, others moderately, and for others were a springboard to success. And in the face of the same challenges, one person will break down, for another it will be a challenge, a third will react even differently. A small note - Robert lost his beloved father at the age of 16, and it looks like he partially took over his role, he felt responsible.

He is the definition of hard work and professionalism - Lewandowski was less gifted, then Suraz - but will have better carrier at the end. Suarez scored only 27 goals in Champions League, while Lewy has over 100. Fact that he can speak fluently in 4 languages is confirmation of his workaholic mentality.

[@garthmanuel5701]

Bs ..Lewy s just as gifted...watch his Dortmund goals! Absolute stunnners!

[@messiisgoat007]

One of the best Strikers of our generation..this guy is unbelievable and to still perform at the top level at such an age is incredible. A monster on the pitch..Thank you Rio for such a wonderful interview..you are a gem on the pitch a killer defender and off the pitch a perfect host 🙏

[@edck.]

Yes....

[@chikku807]

Lewa is a very very eloquent person and so down to earth and smart with his views on society in general

[@fuegoair]

Loved listening to him speak. My respect for him was already high but it’s gotten much higher. Top striker, loved that I got to witness his top form even a rival fan

Thomas Müller would be a good shout for an interview

Im so sad knowing the end is near. This guy has given me so much joy over the years. Thank You Rob. The best player our nation has ever produced.

Great Striker, great guy. We still miss him in Dortmund🖤💛

Polish German Spanish English. It takes a lot of intelligence to not just speak but also express yourself in four different languages. Smart guy, and one of football's greatest goal scorers👍

My striker, my legend, Lewandowski is the best striker in the history of football, I enjoyed this interview a lot even though the translation into Arabic was not good, thank you Rio Ferdinand greetings from Iraq. I love you so much Lewandowski❤

[@deasinho]

The best Striker In Uhr world 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Brother 😊

[@peterh3813]

The thing about Lewandowski is he's not a shiny player, he does his job and does it as good as anyone, but playing at bayern for so long it kind of slowed down his brand in a sense, but the real fans of this game know which players are special and there is only a handful of these types of players every generation and Lewy is right there at the top for sure with players like Messi and Ronaldo

[@adityabaghaswara534]

My respect for Mr.Lewandowski, really humble and funny to have a chat with. Great conversation by the way Rio, keep up the good stuff

[@theoverall-w5j]

To those who make fun of Lewa, highlighting his clumsy grammar. English is his 3rd language, he speaks Polish(native), German(bilingual fluency), English (clearly he understands 100% of what’s Rio saying), Spanish (he understands everything football/game related). How many languages can you speak? No person putting an effort into something as complex as learning a foreign language will underestimate significance of his achievements.❤❤❤

[@M3fitness87]

When you actually realize under what type of coaches Lewy worked for, it really explains why he is the type of player he is. He will definitely leave a great legacy in the world of football.

[@abdulrazakzahid1397]

What a top bloke... Madrid fan here... respect this all time great...❤

[@TORRES999ify]

Shame we never got to see him in the premier league Brilliant goalscorer

[@flashlightbeam3487]

Never say never. Lewy will play up to 40 or even longer. Apart from exercises and very restricted diet He has even sleeping coach. Seriously. All, even very smallest details (e.g. eyes warm up), just to turn body in perfectly (and long) working machine.

Shame he didn't get the Golden Ball two times he deserved that.

Amazing interview. Lewa seems like a really intelligent guy, great insights, great footballer. One of the best ever!

[@yuckesh]

By far one or the best and most informative interview by a football player. Brilliant listen well done Lewa and Rio 🎉

[@lazyninja0963]

This was the best interview of the series. Lewy is a very humble and self-aware guy. Hope we can get more in-depth interviews (from this channel or others)

[@NoKrzy]

Amazing interview Rio! As a Pole I really appreciate recognition lewandowski gets nowadays from fans outside of Poland because in Poland even though he is our best player of all time without a doubt he gets a lot of hate. I love lewandowski and that he’s playing for my beloved barcelona, Poland will really miss him when he’ll retire and those who hate on him are just stupid. Once again amazing interview and i’ve learned a few new facts about my childhood idol thanks to you💪

[@edck.]

Don't exaggerate... nobody hates lewego more.In Poland there is as much frustration as in other countries, don't worry, abroad there are also their haters 😂. You know ludziska sa różni

[@azmiro]

Amazing to listen to this! One particular thing that I noticed is that Lewa used to do Judo at a young age. Reminded me of Zlatan, but he was doing Taekwondo when he was a teenager. These big strikers and goal machines with Martial Arts background are a rarity in modern football, and you can see how it influenced their game.

[@maadmaan88]

After the game, I mean this conversation, one big thing remain in my mind, he is a lucky guy, lucky and smart. Mentally, he meat a lot of people on his road, and he take the best of them. He was born in 1988 like me, and lucky to him to start to talk with big mentality people at this young stage. It’s huge for him, especially because of history and mentality of people who’s survive in Poland. Proud of him. That’s all.

[@k0ach187]

Give this guy his deserved ballon d or pls

[@MrDavid2008]

Wow, fantastic Interview. I listen it very closely. I understand all what Robert Lewandowski said. I tought he was talking to me. Wow wow wow very brilliant Interview . Just 50 minutes I learn so much from Lewa ❤❤❤

[@rioferdinandpresents]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@nanakwasi8655]

It’s been insightful listening to Lewandowski’s perspective on motivation, self awareness, evolution of the game, and the influences of effective managers off and on the pitch. Rio’s timely probes were encouraging as well as inspiring.

[@DanielGromada-w1p]

A beautiful lecture about football and the life of a football player. He didn't get the golden ball he deserved, some would say even two. However, he was a FIFA player twice. In the era of Messi and Ronaldo, this is a huge art. He is not retiring, but we can already say that he is one of the greatest strikers in the history of football.

[@darknezx9542]

Such a thoughtful interview. His thoughts are always matured, logical, and never with ill intentions.
