Arjen Robben

On his day, Arjen Robben is the most devastating footballer in the world, period. The Dutchman has had spells successful spells at PSV, Chelsea, and Real Madrid before moving to Bayern Munich in 2009. Robben has been a mainstay in the Bavarian club, winning every trophy possible.

With his pace, dribbling and long-range goal scoring ability, Robben might go down as one of the most potent attackers in the history of football. Arjen Robben helped the Netherlands in reaching the final of the 2010 world cup final where they were defeated by Spain.

4 years later when the Netherlands finished third in Brazil, Robben was probably their best player. He recorded the fastest speed in a world cup game when he ran past Sergio Ramos and ended up humiliating Iker Casillas and Spanish defense as he scored the fifth goal of Dutch team's 5-1 victory over Spain.

Robben helped Bayern Munich in completing a treble as he scored the winning goal against Borussia Dortmund at Wembley in 2013. The Dutchman was the man of the match over the two-legged victory over Barcelona in the semifinals that season.

Over the years Arjen Robben has scored many memorable goals and humiliated many great players with his drizzling speed and dribbling skills.
