Dutch World Cup star Arjen Robben was Tuesday voted the Bundesliga s best player during the 2009-2010 season in a German footballers poll dominated by champions Bayern Munich.
The attacking midfielder, widely regarded as one of the top players in last Sunday s World Cup final, scooped 72 percent of the votes in the survey conducted by the German Professional Footballers Association (VDV).
In second place with six percent of the votes was fellow Bayern player, German central midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger, who also starred in the World Cup in South Africa.
The prize for the Bundesliga s best young player went to Thomas Mueller, the German international winger who won the Golden Boot in South Africa for the most goals scored and was also named the young player of the tournament.
Completing Bayern Munich s dominance of the survey, Louis van Gaal was the coach of the season, with 38.8 percent of the votes cast, narrowly edging out Schalke s Felix Magath, with 38.3 percent.
The poll was conducted among all footballers playing in the Bundesliga, as well as the second, third and regional leagues.
