2010/11 Bayern Munich Home – Arjen Robben #10 Large

The 2010-11 season was a challenging one for Bayern Munich, especially after their triumphant 2009-10 treble-winning season. Arjen Robben, wearing the #10 shirt, faced a difficult campaign due to injuries, but when he returned in early 2011, he immediately made a huge impact with his signature cut-ins from the right wing and lethal left-footed shots.

🏆 Bayern Munich’s 2010-11 Season Performance

• Bundesliga: 🥉 3rd place (behind Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen)

• DFB-Pokal (German Cup): ❌ Eliminated in the semifinals by Schalke 04

• UEFA Champions League: ❌ Eliminated in the Round of 16 by Inter Milan (on away goals, 3-3 aggregate)

• DFL-Supercup: ❌ Runners-up (lost to Schalke 04)

It was a season of underachievement by Bayern’s standards, which led to the departure of manager Louis van Gaal before the season’s end.

⚽ Arjen Robben’s Impact (2010-11 Season)

• Appearances: 14 Bundesliga matches

• Goals: ⚽ 12 Bundesliga goals

• Assists: 🎯 8 assists

• Key Contributions:

  • Returned midseason after a long injury layoff due to a hamstring tear suffered at the 2010 World Cup.

  • Scored important goals in key matches to push Bayern back into the Champions League qualification spots.

  • Delivered standout performances, including multiple braces (2-goal games) after his comeback.

Robben’s technical excellence and explosive pace reignited Bayern’s attack once he returned — though his limited availability hurt the team’s consistency.
