Arjen Robben

[DYC. 7,542]

If it wasn't for him being out injured for at least half a season (three quarters in the PL) every season, I would put in some of my own money to get him.

What a player he has become though. Always knew he was going to be a world-class player when he was at PSV but never expected him to become this good. Too bad he's made of glass.

[Henri 115]

I would love it if he came back. LOVE IT.

Fantastic player, but he has to many injuryes over and over again, to risky.

[Tomo 21,741]

If we bring him back for a good price.

Accept that he will get injured sometimes and use him as a luxury player (brilliant luxury player) .

If we class him as a key player and he is out a lot our form will suffer (IE Arsenal without Van Persie).

But i would take him back in a shot.

Too bad he is a bit selfish.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Too bad he is a bit selfish.

Agreed! Both legs of Bayern versus Inter showed that! He's moody & selfish.. Not a good combination

[termninja 5,290]

He's a class and I'd welcome him here. I agree that he's selfish and injury prone, but he is an also extremely good player who can decide a match on his own. Besides that, we really need 1 good winger who can beat people.

And Gomes profitied twice off his 'selfishness' in the two games.

Robben is an incredible football player. Even if he plays 30 games a season it would be worth it.

[Rambo 1,729]

One of my fav. wingers and was pretty pissed off when he left but he was way too injury prone and I just don't see us going after him with other cheaper talent on the market.

No.

The downsides have been mentioned already, so pointless repeating them. One other major disadvantage for me atleast is that he's quite predictable. Mazy run, cutting inside and getting the shot away - Robben in a nutshell.

Defenders may know what he will do 9 times out of 10 but then there is a small matter of stopping him.

Do you remember the Liverpool and Fullham games when we were losing and drawing respectively but cruising in our play like we were 5-0 up NO URGENCY AT-ALL, if we had Rooben then it would have been a completely different matter.

You mean a game changer?

[EskWeston 696]

One of my favorite ever Chelsea players and exactly the sort of player we need, but why go back now? We should be looking for the NEXT Robben.

[chrismada9 1,948]

I'd say go in for him!! he's a left-sided midfielder, and could easy replace misfiring Malouda. He's had the most appearances for us as well, so he knows us quite a bit!!

No way - he'll want huge wages and as he gets older will be even more injury prone. If we could loan him for a season would be a good bet....

[Swoopz 183]

He wont come back. He even talked Ribery out of coming to SB, I have seen interviews where he claimed that he didnt enjoy his span at Chelsea very much either. Forget about it

[milllz 43]

we should have got him in the summer when he was cheap, i suggest it!! but ppl viewd against it

Huge wages mean nothing to Abramovich
