Lewandowski told Marca: "From the beginning we knew that we would miss him. He is a type of player who, when the game is not going well, with his movements and aggressiveness, lifts the team up.
"A squad needs these types of players and that is why we miss him. But we don't have him, and now what we can do is wait for him to come back. He is a special player, since I arrived I saw that he had something that the team needs. He has talent and aggressiveness.
"Sometimes you have to stop him, but other times he is the one who pulls the team and says 'come on guys, let's go'. He pushes. And he has a great personality, he is a very nice guy that everyone loves.
"I'm waiting for him, I want him to come back soon. But there is no need to pressure him, although seeing how he is working I am sure that everything will be fine."
