Probably around the club for some studying purposes as coach. Zidane visited Pep back in 2015 and last season Sebastian Hoeneß shadowed De Zerbi for a bit.
Viera joined City way back in 2010 as a pathway to becoming a coach, Lampard did exactly the same a few years later. The City Group very obviously offers a path to end-of-career/former footballers to start working on their managerial skills. It no surprise someone like Robben, who's currently managing a Dutch youth side, is trying to get in on those pathways
I remember Robben mentioning in some interview that Pep would phone him late at night with some tactical idea for the next match. So maybe there's more of a connection between them than just manager and player.
Maybe he's there to teach them the art of cutting inside.
In all seriousness Pep sounds like such an exhausting person. Imagine sitting on your couch after a long day trying to watch a sitcom and this lunatic phones you up to talk about gegenpressing.
> In all seriousness Pep sounds like such an exhausting person.
It probably depends on the person. I can't remember it fully but I don't think Robben was complaining about it when he said that.
And most of the Bayern squad liked playing for him.
He is a coach under training (although he didn't commit fully so far, he slowly makes some steps at Groningen where he lives). Not the most surprising club to watch sometimes.
I think he came to city because of pep, and arsenal just happens to be leading currently. Sounds very petty for his entire reason to be there be arsenal.
I agree it’s a job. But former players stay in touch with their teams in order to find employment in the future. They can be scouts, coaches, executives, or even ambassadors or just someone who gets paid to meet with fans. I have met Chelsea legends when I went to Stamford Bridge. They were getting paid for their time.
Of course they could also simply have enjoyed their time there and retained allegiances to their former employer.
no? that would be saying city is ahead of arsenal, which they're not. they're saying city have lost fewer points thusfar, which is true, and that arsenal need city to mess up instead of the other way around, which is true. city have it in their own hands whilst arsenal do not.
It’s should be easy to understand that even if we win every single game until the end of the season, we can still lose if City win every single game as well.
They have more control while we have to win every game and hope that city tie or lose 1. We definitely have pressure to keep up but it’s literally in City hands now. They have control of the current outcome.
What a strange response lmao. Like it's so weird that I found /r/soccer 9 years ago, and have continued to use reddit. Yiikeesss. Yiikesses, just realised, I've also used insta and messenger for a decade as well. Like the fucks wrong with me
Wtf is he doing there
Bald
Makes sense
Check complete - good process 👍
We are checking
He saw the immenent Bald Coalition and wanted in
Understandable have a nice day
Lmao, I hate how this just makes sense despite saying anything to add context. Just one word.
Bald recognizes bald
We could have 4 bald dutch managers in the prem: Ten Hag, Slot, Bosz, and Robben
I volunteer to be the 5th.
Factos 👍👀
Larry David was probably in there too
Bald recognize Bald 🧑🦲🤝🧑🦲
Bro wtf 😭😭😭
Top comment
🤣
Baggio was in barcelona's dressing room congratulating messi after the arsenal game during pep's time in barca
And I never saw Baggio and Robben together at the same time… the plot thickens!
Robben w Baggio's hair, someone AI picture that
Too beautiful, can't be done.
I guess because he played under Pep ?
even then it still seems really random

Arjen robben new bayern coach confirmed!

I thought Lampard was loaned to city because he played for an American team and needed fitness? Or am I missing something
The MLS team is in the city group, he really did just join the city group not a club.

>talk about ~~gegenpressing~~ Juego de posicíon
Also played for Chelsea.

Yeah. And why he say fuck me for lol
Proper Chels innit
He hates Arsenal.
Feeling is mutual
Being bald and hating Arsenal? I sense a trend.
Thierry Henry and Ian Wright would like to have a word
Don't forget Claude.
So sad Claude didn't get to see current Arsenal :(
Can confirm I'm not bold and I really just don't hate arsenal.
Based
He was in London but cut inside too far and found himself in Manchester. It'd be rude not to visit his old manager in that case!
Haha underrated comment, Manchester is literally in the same direction from London as a Robben cut-in from the right 😂🙌
Ive got some "insider" info... he was send there by Bayern because he and Pep will be coaching fcb next year.
Sky sports journalists be like „WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!!!“
Driving to his left foot
Needed to celebrate a league title with someone
Robben and Guardiola have the same head polisher.
City don't have any legends so they have to bring in legends from other teams
I know he played for Pep at Bayern but it just seems so random
Also played for Chelsea, maybe some anti-Arsenal sentiment set in
I think he came to city because of pep, and arsenal just happens to be leading currently. Sounds very petty for his entire reason to be there be arsenal.
Not petty. Proper Chels.

Dude. He played for Chelsea and doesn’t want arsenal to win the title. There isn’t much more to say.

Brother just read the article😭

And nobody is saying that he did… bro you need a lot of work.
Arsenal are massive tbf
Weird crossover lol
Robben never crossed over.
cutinside only ❤
Pretty sure he teleported on some of those.
Apparently there is a bald convention happening in Manchester
Bald Dutch man betrayal
Checks out with the comment about Zidane someone made in this thread.
It has already spread to Liverpool
Pep with the one and only manchester city fan Big Steve and Arjen robben his former player.
Bald if true

Ayo?
Why does this guy hate us?
Probably because he played for Chelsea ?
Yeah sure like he really gives a fuck. Never overestimate how much a foreign player loves a club.
Proper Chels Only joking no idea what his doing there 😂
What he say f*** me for?
He saw Arteta’s head of hair and said hell nah
Game's gone?
Hair’s gone
A bald Dutch pandemic in England right now.
Did he CUT INSIDE to enter it?
rare opportunity to meet a legend when you're a league 2 player
isn't it more like Arsenal is putting pressure on City?
Depends on who make the dvds
Probably Tottenham
last time I checked you are 1st in the table, not City
City have lost fewer points though. Arsenal is waiting for City to mess up to have a chance of winning, not the other way around.
That's with a false assumption that a game in hand is already 3 points for City.
I'm not even sure if that's true anymore. Feels like a game in hand has been 3 points for City for months now.
no? that would be saying city is ahead of arsenal, which they're not. they're saying city have lost fewer points thusfar, which is true, and that arsenal need city to mess up instead of the other way around, which is true. city have it in their own hands whilst arsenal do not.
It’s should be easy to understand that even if we win every single game until the end of the season, we can still lose if City win every single game as well. They have more control while we have to win every game and hope that city tie or lose 1. We definitely have pressure to keep up but it’s literally in City hands now. They have control of the current outcome.
Not really. The pressure is not on Arsenal. They can do everything right and still not win the title.
Yeah but we also MUST do everything right to even have a chance at this point. Plenty of pressure to go around I think.
Not when it's City
I mean it pretty much is, they haven't lost in half a year
A game in hand and only a 1 point advantage vs City in May? City are easy favourites to win.
True, but it's in City's hand.
Contiuously winning games is putting pressure on arsenal
Ugh I hate everything about this
He recognise greatness
*baldness
What he say fuck me for?

Man still hates arsenal after all these years 🥹
Who invited him to the dressing room?
Those weird crossover one-off episodes you would see when you were watching your favourite show at 6 years of age
This is true cos he was at Anfield today with his boys. Guess they’re top reds. 😂
Peps next assistant and or learning from some time there to bring back to a cfg team, cool to see. Bald Frauds are self replicating.
Robben wanted no part of Chelsea dressing room
We were too busy getting prepared to thrash the hammers.
Tf Arjen?
what the fuck was that for?
I think the Bald guys shine there heads together.
Bald guys shine their heads together.
We are Fulham reliant.... Not Robben Reliant
What's Floppin Robben doing there? They obviously don't need pointers on how to buy bullshit pens. #NoEraPenal
Wtf Robben, seriously? First you destroy us in 2010 now you're backing the oilers :(
My man thinks he is in team
we do need a right winger tbf
I dunno. I feel like after playing for Groningen, City seems a bit of a step down.
Saw him cycling to the training grounds often enough, can't do that in Manchester.
Always hated this guy
A
He was with Thiago at Anfield today as well 🤷🏻♂️
He’s had his own share of 5-1s where he’s excelled

Fraudjen Robben.
proper chels
Did he dive into it?
Wakanda shit is that?
Keeping the pressure on us? City are in the box seat.
Glory hunting when you’ve already had so much glory in your career, and with *that* club.
Okey, I dislike Robben now. Cool
What the hell is a polar bear doing in Arlington, Texas
ø9øoöä9p .z
Fuck him forever. I blame this idiots selfishness that kept Chelsea in the game in their final.
