Arjen Robben

If it was a cheap deal, and he could give us at least one season of attacking verve it would be worth it.
But don't see why Bayern would sell unless they thought he was well over the hill.
 
Isn't he old and injury prone? Someone back me up here.

He has been quite injured a lot TBH; 2013-14 was the only recent season where he played over 40 appearances for the club. Nevertheless, his goal return is still astonishing with 17 goals in 21 Bundesliga matches (19 goals in 30 matches total) for last season alone. It depends on what Bayern would ask for him, but he wouldn't hurt at a reasonable price.
 
I'm torn on this. We sure could use him, but I hate him and can't bring myself to cheer for him. If you take the racism and biting out, he is a Suarez level cheat.

He cheats like most footballers do. I'm sure you'd cheer Ronaldo if he was coming back. You cheer Rooney?

You mean that Bayern that according to reports out of Wolfsburg today had rejected 35m EUR for Rode from an English club? :cool:

Like Manchester United do, older players at Bayern are also sold for quite cheap. That's a wrong comparison to put Rode in there. :rolleyes:

Robben is not old. When he is not injured he is better than ever.

Bayern does not sell older players cheap - they only do not give obstacles to players that want to leave and aren't needed necessarily.

Robben does not want to leave and is needed!
 
Wanted him so badly in 2004 and was devastated we missed out on him, even at 32 I'd still love to have him at United. Hell let's sign Ronaldinho as well :drool:
 
When fit, still a top 5 player in the world IMO. Would love him here but I am sure there is nothing to this rumor.
 
Cillessen
van der Wiel - Vlaar - Martins Indi - Buttner
Sneijder - Blind
Robben - Huntelaar - Depay
Persie

Dutch players we've either had or have been linked to since LVG came...
 
great, would fit in with LVG's master plan to have 1 player up front who might win games on his own, backing up with 9 men behind him defending the goal. Voila! we're now Holland national team

We should've kept RvP if we knew Robben was coming.
 
So we're getting Robben, Muller and Lewandowski, on top of Schweinstiger?

feck you Bayern! We're the kings now :drool:
 
Memphis on the left, Robben on the right
.
That would be pretty dam sweet
 
It would be a good signing (even though I can't stand his diving antics) but it's not going to happen. Bayern will want to keep him as he's still important to them. I guess though maybe they will use Costa out wide? And if so maybe for the right price they'd consider.

You know that a football pitch has two wings?
 
I can't believe there are people in here saying they wouldn't want Robben if he were available!

Wouldnt they have signed Pedro if they were about to lose Robben?
 
I love the way the German fans on here get so wound up when we are linked with any of their players. It's hilarious. Awfully serious bunch.
 
best player at last WC, still could give us two good seasons. Unrealistic target I'd say
 
Probably unrealistic but he's exactly the type of player we need if kept injury free somehow.

We should atleast try if a chance.
 
If we can get him, and he has an injury free season; i think we could start dreaming about the league title this season.

Yeah ive noticed that, any suggestion ranging from a shit non source to semi-crediable they rush in and post essays about the facts why it wont happen etc, its jokes.
