Robert Lewandowski dismisses unhappiness speculation

Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski dismisses suggestions that he is unhappy with his role in Pep Guardiola's team.

Striker Robert Lewandowski has played down suggestions that he is unhappy with his role in the Bayern Munich team.

There had been speculation that the Pole had grown frustrated with head coach Pep Guardiola, who has tended to put a big emphasis on getting the ball to wingers Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery since he took charge at the Allianz Arena in 2013.

Such a tactic has resulted in rumours that Lewandowski had started to feel isolated, but the 26-year-old has insisted that he is "feeling very, very good at the moment".

"I'm only concerned with what the coach and my teammates have to say. No striker in the modern game can simply hang around up front waiting for the ball to be played to him," he told the club's official website.

"I've been at Bayern for half a year now, and I know I'm becoming more skilful because I'm training with such great players every day. I'm feeling very, very good at the moment and I'm looking forward to our upcoming matches."

On Saturday, Bayern will travel to Lewandowski's former club Borussia Dortmund.
