Football matters. It's what got me here.

It’s a great honour [to be a captain], I’m very proud. But I’m even more proud of the team. There had to be a miracle and it came. Oranje needed it. Robben needed it. For six months I have seen what he has gone through. He has worked hard, worked and sweat, like no other. I felt goosebumps when he was subbed in. From him I’ve learned, for example, that one must never give up. I’ll keep the captain’s armband on my arm tonight. I can imagine a long future at Bayern. When I’m on the pitch without Robben, it doesn’t feel right. Pure football genious, to say the least. They needed a s p a r k, something to give them confidence ahead of the Champions League return leg clash against Inter. But from where? Enter Arjen Robben. In the Hamburg game, he played in a different role, and his performance i n s p i r e d a morale-boosting 6-0 win against die Rothosen. Make place for Arjen Robben. It’s an h o n o u r to play for Bayern. I’ve only been here for a year but I already know Bayern are t h e b e s t team in Europe. How do you stop Arjen Robben? I think you need a shotgun. He is one of my best friends on the team. Maybe I’ll stay here f o r e v e r. When I’m with my family I can switch off completely. I’m not longer Arjen Robben the footballer, I’m Arjen Robben the husband and father. Munich became my h o m e. Arjen Robben is one of the best players ever to have worn the Bayern Munich jersey, and that’s why he will remain here forever. FC Bayern is like a f a m i l y for me. This is the first time I have renewed my contract with a club. I have always moved on. So this says it all. I can also imagine finishing my career here.

Arjen Robben made his first Bundesliga appearance since late November when he came off the bench during Bayern Munich vs Hannover 96 match. It was the Dutch winger’s 700th professional appearance and will be one of his last for Bayern after he announced in December that he will be leaving the club at the end of the season. This was the crowd’s reaction to Robben being subbed in. (May 4, 2019)
