#2 Arjen Robben

Only Robben can do such things
Only Robben can do such things

If there was ever a list of most eye-catching sights in football, Arjen Robben’s trademark run from right wing – dribbling past the number of defenders – shifting the ball to his left foot and shooting it from the edge of the box into the top corner would have been in the top 3 for sure.

The Bayern No. 10 is now 33 but still runs like a 23-year-old. His run against Spain in 2014 World Cup for Netherlands' 5th goal is a perfect proof. The Dutchman’s speed and dribbling ability have made him an unstoppable force on the right wing.

The winger has left his mark everywhere he's played. Eredivisie winner for PSV, 2 consecutive Premier League titles with Chelsea, La Liga with Real Madrid and staggering 6 Bundesliga titles with Bayern, Robben has conquered every league he has ever played in. He also conquered Europe with Bayern in the 2012-13 season.

Robben led his team to the Final of 2010 World Cup only to be beaten by Iniesta’s winner very late in the game. He has now retired from international football but is still a key player for Bayern Munich.
