Woeful isn't it? The choreographed goal celebrations are tedious as well.
Shame he wasn't so up for it when he was here.

I could have scored an hattrick with that defending and goalkeeping.

Lovely finish for his 2nd but none of their goals should have been goals, pathetic defending. The free kick that geezer on the other team took was superb though. It went over the wall & pretty much into the inside of the side netting like one of Elano's penalties. Wonder if he does that regularly? Would be much more of an asset over here than Robinho if he does.

Can't really make any meaningful comparisons with the Premier League.

Why does that waste of space still warrant any of our attention?

How many goals has he scored since he went back? I tell you what, I d rather have Robinho playing than having 7 defenders on the pitch! At least we'd have a chance of getiing outta 'r 'alf!

If the training report is anything to go by, we might get out of our half quite a bit on Sunday.

Not too sure, but I'm ready to accept anything as long as we get the points. I still see this as a transitional period and if it get's us up the table into fourth or above, I'd suggest most people would accept it. I know I would!

Despite all that's happened, I still like Robinho and watching him play there did put a smile on my face.
His 2nd goal was fantastic - like the Arsenal one from last season.
Although I can't see it happening, I'd love him back playing for us. Will be such a waste of talent if he stays in Brazil.
Come on Robbie - grow some balls, get a decent work ethic in yourself and get back over here!
If not, then enjoy scoring 80 goals a year against some really poor defenders.

cheers
Sadly I think you may be right.
Now he can walk out knowing he's the best player on the pitch without even trying.
In the Prem, teams made him work for that honour and too often in the last year he was unwilling to step up to the challenge.

I seem to be in the minority but i still want him back. He is a rare talent and the right manager could make him a superstar if he's willing.
Tracking back is overrated.
