Bayern Munich legend Franz Beckenbauer has described Arjen Robeen as "selfish".

Beckenbauer believes that Dutch winger should be more appreciative of the effort that his teammates put in to help him score goals.

"He has played away some of his recognition. He is selfish like so many others," Beckenbauer told Sky TV.

"His reaction alone to when he has a good effort or scores a goal; he does not run towards the player who set him up to score but instead he runs towards his family in the stands. He lets the team run after him.

"At some point the teammate will say 'if you are not going to recognise my pass then next time you can come and get the ball yourself'."

Robben's contract with Bayern expires in the summer of 2013.
