Robben riled by reduced opportunities

Arjen Robben has admitted to growing frustration with life at Bayern Munich, after starting several Bundesliga games from the dugout.

A loss of form has seen the 28-year-old drop out of Jupp Heynckes' first team plans, but Robben said he feels his coach dropping him got in the way of a full recovery.

"When I felt good again, I was interrupted," he told Dutch television station Sport1.

The Dutchman has been widely criticised for his performances in the press, and took time to hit back at German newspapers for what he feels is a witch-hunt.

"There are some newspapers that try to wage a small war against me every two months. This I take personally. I do not want to lump them all together, but it's sad," Robben said.
