The Netherlands international has urged his team-mates not to get
carried away - despite sitting 13 points clear at the top of the
Bundesliga.
Arjen Robben has insisted that Bayern Munich are not yet certain of retaining their Bundesliga crown, despite restoring their 13-point lead at the top of the division.
The Bavarians beat Eintracht Frankfurt 5-0 on Sunday, which leaves Pep Guardiola's side way out in front of second-placed Bayer Leverkusen and odds-on favourites to win the division again.
Nevertheless, Robben has warned his team-mates not to get carried away and is wary of teams raising their performance levels against Bayern in a bid to pull off a major scalp.
"Everyone wants to beat the leaders, the champions," the Dutchman was quoted as saying on the club's official website.
"Therefore, it is crucial that we remain focused.
"No-one’s going to give us anything for free."
Robben has been in sublime form for Bayern this term, scoring seven goals in 14 Bundesliga appearances so far.
