Holland national team manager Bert van Marwijk has blasted Bundesliga club Bayern Munich over Arjen Robben’s injury. He insisted that the Bavarian club has not handled the player’s injury properly and that the national team medical
staff have been looking after the winger’s hernia problem.
Arjen Robben recently underwent a groin operation and will be out for another 10 days. He made a brief comeback in the club’s recent league clash against Bayer Leverkusen but has again been ruled out with injury. He also missed
Netherland’s Euro 2012 qualifier against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Moldova-c2957 on Friday and will also be unavailable for the clash against Sweden next week.
Marwijk criticized Bayern Munich for putting the blame of Arjen Robben’s injury on the Dutch Football Association. He labelled the club as ‘anti-social’ and insisted that the Germans put cannot blame Netherlands for everything.
The manager added that Robben had complained of injury when he was called for the national side’s qualifiers against Moldova and Sweden which is why he was sent back. He claimed that the winger played through pain for Bayern in
the last few matches and requires a groin operation.
“Now they put the blame for Arjen's hernia on us instead of being thankful that we had him re-examined thoroughly. It's almost anti-social. Even when called up for the games against Moldova and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sweden-c3015, Arjen told me that he was
not fully fit. Robben told us that at Bayern he had played through pain,” he was quoted as saying in an interview to Radio 1.
The coach added that the medical team had examined the player before the training started and the doctors had immediately showed concerns over the fitness of the midfielder.
“For us it is common for all players who claim to have an injury, to be examined before the start of training. Therefore we had Arjen examined by our doctor on Monday morning,” he concluded.
Arjen Robben has so far played 53 times for the national team and has scored 15 goals in the process.
