Barcelona defender Eric Garcia says Robert Lewandowski has quickly settled inside the locker room.

The Pole struck a hat-trick in victory over Champions League opponents Viktoria Plzen this week.

Eric said, "He has surprised me how much he talks on the field, how he helps his teammates and how he tells you what will happen before it happens.

"In the end, players of this level can adapt anywhere. Obviously this is Barça, you have to get here and score goals. Then the following games come and nobody remembers the last one. In the end, he is a spectacular striker.

"He has a knack for scoring goals... and then look at the pass he made to Pedri with a heel. I didn't see that option from the bench and he saw it. He's one of those different players. Because of the effectiveness he has, you can compare it to Luis Suárez."
