Tattooing other geezers name on your body is WRONG anyway. May it be Elvis, Winston Churchill or Robinho.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

If we sign anyone from Brazil, no matter how skillful, he has to have strength, desire & be able to look after himself, otherwise he'll end up on the bench or sold.

Lesson learnt.... Never buy a player who things they are doing your club a favour by playing for you.

I'd say the lesson to be learn't from all this is that you dont sub a 32 mill pound player.And if you do then you can expect said player to engineer a move.
It may save the Sheikh a few months of wages but more than that nobody knows.
I would also wonder what kind of message this sends out to the stars of the game that we wish to attract.
It might be a lesson to them that if they come to city and are out of form for a few weeks a witchhunt is likely to be started.

Same thing as your cock has been doing since he left the first time. Nothing.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

I don't think we can learn anything from this tbh. Every player is different. Shevchenko at Chelsea was shite but i expected him to be awesome in the English game but at least he tried, unlike Robbie. Would Kaka have hacked it in the prem if we had landed him? No-one can answer a definate 'yes' or 'no' because we just don't know. It was an excellant signing for us and last season at home he was sensational but eventually he was found out.

Are you for real, mate? Robinho has put no effort in for months now, he deserved to be subbed even before he was at Goodison, and has shown the club and his teammates no respect as he never put in a good shift when he was played since the start of the season. I've been willing to cut him some slack at first because he was coming back from injury so he might have lacked match fitness, but enough is enough.

I went to Santos and it was raining. Admittedly it was fairly warm, but still a grey sky and rain.

He certainly seems to be saying that he expects to be back after the world cup in the video on the OS, as did Mancini in his PC, Robby Vid on OS

just saw that too...and really enjoyed watching it. i didn't feel like he was really leaving longterm. in fact, he seemed really really close with everyone. He seemed like an employee who isn't getting what he wants, but is really well liked by everyone. loads of smiles and hugs in that video which seemed really heartfelt and genuine.

i wonder if Dunga put him on notice that if he didnt get some footy he might not factor in his thinking too much?

regardless, he didn't seem like a player who wasn't coming back. I didn't see him hug Petrov tho. :)

also, he and Stevie talking is like a scene from a Guy Ritchie film. great communicators on the field, but...also, apparently Robinho is available by via text.

cheers

Pretty sad that Video especially when he was getting his boots.

I hope he comes back and sees what he could do here if he knuckles down.
