Dutch star forward Arjen Robben won't be playing in Bayern Munich's Champions League clash against AS Roma on Wednesday, as the club confirmed he is suffering from a stomach bug.ย ย ย 

The Bavarians confirmed the news on Twitter, adding the 30-year-old felt so bad he didn't even leave the hotel to support his team-mates at the stadium:

Bayern later named its starting lineup without Robben:

Former football star Jan Aage Fjortoft thinks the Giallorossi in particular will be happy to hear they won't be facing the Dutchman:

Robben had two goals and an assist in Week 3, when Bayern thrashed the Italians, 7-1, so his contributions will surely be missed on Wednesday.
