Robben was an important player for Chelsea during their first back to back title wins

Arjen Robben, the Dutch flying machine arrived at Chelsea from PSV in 2004. In his first season, he was already competing with Wayne Rooney for the PFA Young Player of the Year award.

The Dutch winger played on the left flank for Chelsea. Robben proved to be of great importance to Jose Mourinho as Chelsea secured two back to back English titles for the first time in their history.

In his spell with Blues, Robben scored 19 goals and ruled the flanks for his team. His form got the attention of Spanish giants, Real Madrid and Chelsea decided to sell the winger to the Spanish giants.

What Robben has achieved since then with Madrid and Bayern Munich needs no introduction. The trademark "Robben runs" where he beats the marker and cuts inside to curl the ball with his lethal left foot is a sight to be bestowed with.
