Of course I knew it would be an emotional moment, but when I saw Philipp giving the armband to Thomas my heart just stopped, what a moment, that image will stay in my mind/heart forever❤

Mr. Robben, Philipp Lahm end his career on Saturday game...

Robben: Yes, That is why we have the obligation to make a great farewell to Philipp, and also to Xabi. This is the most important thing for me on Saturday, especially for Philip, I have a special relationship with him."

The team loses their captain, also your congenial partner. "I've been at Bayern for eight years now. For eight years I played with Philipp on the right side. There is a blind understanding between us on the pitch, we have harmonized very well. I also like to play with Josh and Rafa. Don't misunderstood me. But with Philip it was something special, it was incredibly fun to play with him." Will the footballer or the personality Lahm be missed for you? Robben: "Both of them will be missed. I'll miss him on the pitch, of course. I'm losing my right foot (laughs). But I will also miss him as captain. It was an honor for me to play with him for so long. No matter how long I think, I can only find praiseworthy words for him. Philipp was an example for FC Bayern in many respects." Are his farewell closer to you than other players? Robben: "Yes - I can say so, and I believe. After all, we have experienced so much together. For Philipp, his farewell is a very emotional moment, no question. But for me too, it's a bit emotional, I've already told my wife. She knows how well I understand Philipp." Can say that you have made each other better? Robben: "Yes, you can. Philipp and I have always been super-supplemented on the pitch - and thus also strengthened each other. Philip made it easy for me with his walkways. I could often pull in because he pushed his opponents out with his movements. I often have two or three opponents to against when I am dribbling, Philipp could use the position to cross the edge. And as many doubles as I did with Philipp, I certainly did not play with anyone else in my career (laughs). "
