How a Winger Who Only Used One Foot Destroyed Everyone

Arjen Robben is a Bayern legend for the heroics he pulled off the in the Bundesliga and Champions league and for dominating opposing defenses with just one foot and one move. He first started off in Groningen but played for clubs like Chelsea, Real Madrid, and PSV. He crossed paths with Jose Mourinho in many occasions but he seemingly nearly always came up short in their match up. He also came close to playing with Cristiano Ronaldo first when he nearly moved to Manchester United and then when Real Madrid bought Ronaldo but sold Robben in the same year. In the international stage he would also perform amazing with Netherlands coming close to winning the world cup in 2010 but unfortunately coming up short against the heavy favorites Spain.

Great video!! Robben was honestly one of the more underrated players in our generation. People from today’s generation won’t understand how much of a talent he was.

[@TMM2.0]

Me, as a Dutch person, completely agrees with u

[@torstent8979]

Guess most football fans recognized the amount of his talent. Just got the image of being injured all the time and a diver - which unfortunately was true. But he got to know his body better and got a bit away from diving in the later years of his career, which made him a very appreciated player in Germany and the Netherlands at least. Fans also recognized he wasn't injured through a lack of professionality, it seemed to be genetics. He was known for beeing a hard worker in training. I'm not a Bayner fan, but from Germany and I totally enjoyed watching Robbery, especially in CL.

[@pritishsirkar]

I think it was because of the injuries. Without the injuries, he would be in the conversation with Messi and Ronaldo. He’s still one of the all time greats for me.

[@torstent8979]

@@pritishsirkar Messi and Ronaldo in from 10 yrs ago were a very different level. Even the healthiest Robben I remember is one level below. But between normal humans, he's in a row with Xavi, Iniesta, Pirlo, Cannavaro, Neuer, Ribery, Ramos, Gerrard, Rooney, Henry and so on. Prime Ronaldinho, Zidane, Ronaldo 9, Maradonna, Pele, Beckenbauer, Cruyff ...hard to compare, but these are more in a discussion of Messi/Ronaldo-Level for me.

[@michaelfellner9822]

Im a Bayern Munich fan and Robben was just amazing to watch. Not just from a football perspective but also how he always fought his way back after injuries. You know how most say nowadays that "well this player has been out with an injury for a while, you cant expect him to do well instantly" - well Robben did just that, over and over again. Even tho his injuries were usually really bad, which would mess up some players a lot. His will and power helped him succeed and on the pitch he was just smarter then his opponents. Yea he was kind of a one trick pony but in that he was perfection. Even tho i loved Ribery but Robben surely had a bigger impact on our success then Rib had, nonetheless this duo was just a dream to watch, i miss them a lot. Considering his impact, numbers but also his injuries you can be sure that if he wasnt made of "glass" he wouldve been in the category with Ronaldo and Messi, im 100% sure about that.

[@user-sm9zs7sc8u]

Yes! I am 22 years old, I watched Robben play for around ten years. So many beautiful moments. The CL 09/10, the CL 12/13, but also 14/15. Then all the DFB Pokal decisive contributions, so many Bundesliga games. What a player!

[@michaelfellner9822]

As a Dutch kid growing up, Robben was easily my favorite player. He was just so iconic for the Netherlands, and he clearly had the talent to match the very best in the world. It's such a shame his muscles were made of styrofoam, we'd all be looking at his generation very differently if he was more reliable.

Bayern supporter here. The years 2010 through 2012 were absolutely brutal for us; especially for Robben, who also suffered losses on the international stage. Bayern supporters were getting very frustrated with him during that time. What I admire most about him is that he never EVER gave up. With all of the losses in finals and all of the injuries, he never always came back and gave 100% performances. In 2013, with that goal in the Wembley, he regained the trust of all the Bayern faithful and reshaped the history of the club moving forward. One of my favorite players EVER! Always got me off of my seat. Crazy left foot. The true Flying Dutchman, Arjen Robben. Thank you for the wonderful video. I know it took a lot of effort and research. Thank you for highlighting the legacy of this amazing player.

[@s3dghost]

Stop the cap, there was never a time Bayern fans were frustrated with robben... We all knew he was injury prone and thankful he was fit for the most part with us... Please stop saying trash... We were never frustrated with our beloved no 10. The 2013 winner was more like a "finally, he did it" moment... Again, we were never frustrated with our no.10...

because when you cut in the ball is on your outer foot, thus defenders have a much harder chance getting the ball because it is further away, as well as if he keeps pushing the ball the defenders keep lagging him by one second.

Excellent, excellent summary! Did the research, found the footage and the newspaper headlines, awesome job. The only two details I miss (especially in the context of 'not being a man for the big games') are two of his most beautiful goals: the solo at the World Cup vs Spain in 2014 where he out sprints everyone and the game winning goal at RB Leipzig in 16-17 in an absolute cracker of a game (Bayern won 5-4 having trailed 4-2 until the 83rd minute, Robben assisted on 4-3 with a shot that hit the crossbar and was tapped in, then scored a spectacular solo goal from the right wing in the 95th minute to win a critical game).

He frustrated me like no other player at Bayern during his time. Obviously very very talented, he did almost nothing else than his famous move. he seldom backchecked, he almost never went to the baseline (which kept his defender high and created spaceproblems for the striker and the central midfielders). he stood on the right side of the box at 16-20m and waited for the ball. then he worked his magic. its really incredible what he contributed with that little variance. amazing.
