mmany madridistas will remember Arjen Robben for his classic move, one that he always repeated and nobody was able to stop. The move, which he perfected over time, was simple… but lethal.. A guaranteed goal (almost always) every time he started driving from the right wing. Feint short, diagonal and left-footed into the back of the net.
“If you never pass or go to the bottom linethen the movement from outside to inside will stop working at some point. Doing the same thing over and over without variation doesn’t work.“, the Dutchman tried to explain in his day to give his movement the key to success. A patented dribble… that Bayern wanted to continue exploiting with the arrival of Alfonso Davies. Or at least That was the main idea when they decided to sign the Canadian soccer player to fly down the wing.

“They signed me to be Arjen Robben’s replacement as time went on, but then David (Alaba) got injured, they put me there and I thought it was temporary.Davies snapped. “But three or four years… I’m stuck there, I’m just waiting for my chance to play up“, he added. A striking confession from a footballer who has dominated the left side with an iron fist since his arrival at Bayern… which has ended up provoking the interest of the great teams in Europe.
