The departure of Lewandowski and Haaland afflicts the Bundesliga with an offensive depression

 “When I read the list of the best Bundesliga scorers, I die of laughter: Volkrug is in first place.” 16 goals. I think of Arling Haaland and Robert Lewandowski, who guaranteed 50 goals for their teams", this scathing comment to the Bavarian newspaper "Merkur" was made by Michael Rummenigge,

Two rounds before the conclusion of the German Football League, it will be a “negative” record for breaking the Bundesliga that started 60 years ago, with the top scorer having only 16 goals in his score  the former player of Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund in the eighties and nineties and brother of former Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.

Rummenigge's comment highlights the stark contrast between the current top scorer's performance and the exceptional performances of previous top scorers in the Bundesliga. It also raises questions about the quality of the league and the level of competition among its players.

While some may argue that the low number of goals scored by the top scorer is a reflection of the league's defensive strength, Rummenigge's comment suggests that it is more likely a reflection of the lack of exceptional talent among the league's players. As the Bundesliga continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see whether the league's top scorers can match the exceptional performances of their predecessors.
