His attributes immediately remind one of a prime Arjen Robben at Bayern Munich, with the former Netherlands international man being a huge star during his time. Robben formed a deadly and exciting attacking partnership with former France international winger Franck Ribery. While Robben operated on the right, Ribery operated on the opposite side and both of them not only caused havoc, they also terrorized defenders on sight.

They were both very clinical in front of goal and showed top-notch finishing skills, making Bayern Munich one of the most feared teams in the world in the process. The club currently still maintain that reputation, and even more so than how it was in the past. The German side are a team that play direct attacking football so fluidly and are such a joy to watch.

Following the retirement of Robben and Ribery (Robbery), the club needed to find immediate replacements. And in their hunt for the heirs to two of their legendary stars, Same was selected to fill the right position and replace Robben. Since his signing, he has not disappointed one bit and because he still had a lot of years ahead of him, he has enough time as well as the potential to match Robben’s portfolio at Bayern Munich and even surpass it as well.
