#26 Arjen Robben
From a relatively young star plying his trade in Bavaria to one of the club’s veterans. Dutchman Robben has won La Liga, the Premier League and the Bundesliga, as well as having finished a World Cup runner-up with the Netherlands in South Africa 2010.
His trademark style of cutting in from the wing to lash a strike at goal flourished at Groningen at PSV in his home country before he made the move to Stamford Bridge, laying down a marker for how innovative and energetic wide men could actually be.
The flying Dutchman, now 32-years-old, has impressed most in his time at the Allianz, where he has scored more than 80 goals in all competitions to date. His success is unprecedented, while his fierce dribbling, silky skills and a lightning bolt of a left boot render him one of the finest talents we have ever seen in his position.
Robben does, however, have a tendency to get injured and it was a muscular casualty which has seen him slip down the pecking order at the back-end of last season and the start of this campaign. Therefore, through no real fault of his own, his form hasn’t been great and his potential looks tainted as a result, hence why reliant Robben is unable to turbo his way into the top ten, as his natural ability would otherwise suggest.
