What do you think of this guy-would you have him at City??? I know I done a thread on Di Maria the other week,but feel these are the sorts of players we need to be lookin at..
He's an awesome player but really needs to cut down on the cheatin
What did you think of his reaction towards bein subbed ?? I dont lke to see it but it does show the guy has seriuos passion and a will to win..

He's got bags of talent, torments defenders, can play either side, scores goals, works his nuts off - all at the highest level
Why wouldn't we want him?

??? he was awesome for chelsesa and left them for real madrid!
My only concern about him when he was in the prem was his fitness but he seems to be over his injury problems now. (although that is an assumption as i dont really follow the german league)
i remember when robben first came into the chelsea team I thought he looked like the best player in the world he was immense to begin with!
last two times iv seen him, today and against scum he was great and was responsible for winning both games, id love him at city!!!

He did have a couple of niggly injuries at the start of the season that kept him out for a few games, but the second half of the season he has been injury free

I'd have him in a heartbeat. Better than any winger we have at the moment.

I really don't believe you. Robben has been one of my top three players to watch in the world for ages. His only problem is that he is completely unable to stay fully fit and is always carrying minor injuries. That said, his productivity per minute played is second to none so he'd definitely be worth the hassle.

That's exactly it. Purple patch or otherwise, he's one of the best wingers in the game at the moment. He turns it on during the big occasions too (Euro 2008, Chumps League this year).
Real brought in the Tranny/Kaka and so had no choice but to let him go.

Wow only 26 didn't realise he's so young since he already been about a bit. Would definitely be a good buy. Chelsea definitely missed him when they got rid and if they said they didn't they are lying out there arse. He really is a great player that can make a huge difference on the day. Would never say no to him.

I still think he's a lightweight & a cheat, also injury prone & temperamental. Definitely a matchwinner though so it's all about balance really; if you have a side that suits him then he could be a great player to have, provided you don't start him in every game.
He faded badly at Chelsea though & it barely caused a ripple amongst their fans when he went. Currently scoring at a much higher rate than he did in the PL. No guarantee he'd repeat it if he came back.

When I saw him against the shite, he couldn't beat his full back, pretty sure it was Evra. He was cutting inside to get on his left peg all the time. I was thinking how poor he was playing and that it was time for him to be subbed... then he goes and hits that volley in the bottom corner. What do i know eh?
On the whole though It'd be a 'no' from me. I'd sooner watch A. J.

Scored a hattrick himself and pretty much took part in all the other 4 Bayern goals as well. It was quite a rout.
