Robinho: I don't want to go back to Manchester City

[Bear60]

Well Fuck Off then you prick.

[Fidel Castro]

Awww don't be so harsh lads. All he needs is an arm around his shoulder, cos he is BraSilian and they are very sensitive.

[branny]

Failed in Madrid, failed in Manchester. Where does he go from here? Who in their right mind would want to buy him now? Crap attitude. Spits his dummy out if not first name on the team sheet. Lazy. Honestly, who will pay anywhere near £30 million for him? Brazil is probably his only option but can anybody afford him?

[dazby]

I smell a bit of Sturridge amongst the posters here.

Que sera sera. If he comes back and fights for the cause, great. If we sell him, so long and thanks for the memories. He just needs to remember how much we shelled out for him and how much he is getting paid.

Robinho has irritated me more and more this season. A few weeks ago on BBC's World Football Phone-In, their Brazil expert Tim Vickery brought up a television appearance he made on Brazilian television. When asked about Manchester City, rather than talk up to Brazilians the club that paid a small fortune for him and allowed him to go home to Brazil on very generous terms, he instead implied that City were just a small club who had come into money. (Sorry for no article link.)
The difficult part for Santos FC is that they cannot afford his wages at all, and certainly not a transfer fee for him. Sponsors of the club (advertisers, wealthy fans, etc.) are paying the greater part of his wages and, to be blunt, he is our player. If he wants out, put in a transfer request and queue up the wealthy bidders. If he thinks he can dictate terms to Manchester City, he is sadly mistaken. The problem for the future for players who join City is that we have no financial incentive to sell them, whereas they very well may wish to leave for whatever reason. It is just the nature of the beast of being a well-off club. On the other hand, it also means that every time we sell a player, it will likely be at a loss. There is no way we will get 35 million pounds for Robinho now, especially if he is heading back to Brazil.
It really is a pity what has happened with him as he is enormously talented to this day. He simply lacks the will and physicality to compete in the Premier League. As with Real Madrid and Santos beforehand, his personality is hampering his career.

In the grand scheme of things (their massive wealth) our owners could afford to take him back and stick him in the reserves for two years. A few wet and windy games against the likes of Rochdale and Bury reserves away in front of 35 spectators might just teach him a lesson AND send out a message to any other player who feels like fucking with them.

Other than that I don't see why we even feel the need to discuss the sly twat.

[shawzy]

Hes happy staying there and doing this

I'm hoping that if we get 4th and no World Cup for him to worry about that he will decide that his best option is to come back and fight for his place. Could be like signing a new player. Doubt it though.

And he needs to keep telling the world this at least once a month, why? Because there are journalists who have nothing better to write about, and are all too happy to give this little fuck a platform to whine and blubber and pump out his chest and suck his thumb and rub in just what a cnut he really is. Not wanting to sound too much like a complete duffer, but the man is 26 and epitomises the infantile way that some adults act these days. He is a puerile attention whore with some great football talent: unfortunately, that talent is largely wasted on a lazy, self-serving twat.

[s1ty m]

See ya then. But, we shelled out £32m for him, we are entitled to a lot back. Should just take Neymar as an exchange and close the door on Robinho. Sad episode, he is a tool.

[guv111]

I'd put him the transfer list, we're not a charity

That's the point, in a nutshell. We have had no thanks at all (just the opposite, actually) for loaning out Jo and Joe Hart, and this has got to stop right now. What next, signing Torres and Gerrard for £70m and loaning them back to Liverpool? Or maybe we should sign Rooney and loan him back, too? We can afford Robinho's wages easily, so let's recall the twat and give him the platform his effort deserves - a place on the reserves' bench.

[Ted Hughes]

Why isn't Robinho grateful that we've allowed him to go somewhere that he enjoys his football, can get in shape for the World Cup & swan around in the sun at the same time? Why doesn't he show us some respect by keeping his mouth shut ? He should be telling everyone how great we've been in helping him, not how miserable he was & how small-time we are.

Seeing as he has no respect for us, let's have none for him. Treat him like a piece of meat & use him in a way that we get the best for our club. Bollocks to what he wants, we owe him nothing, why help him to take the piss out of us?

Robinho: I don't want to go back to Manchester City

And we don't want you back.....world in harmony.

[Beeks]

Ta Ra Robbie

*waves*

Oh...close the door on your way out...

[Fish111]

tbh i've already forgotten he's a blue. I do not class him as one of our own. He is the epitomy of an over-paid, egostistical, self-obsessed footballer who needs an ex-pro who cannot get an hard on to tell him how good he is. Sell him to Dynamo Kiev.

[Beeks]

Funny thing is...he was the start of all this...

He really could have become a legend...A talisman for the new City

it's not as if us fans didn't take to him...We adored him...even when he was in indifferent form

He repayed us by shoving it into our faces...

Like i've said before...Madrid knew exactly what they were doing...

[Vhero]

Club will not get rid unless they get most of the cash invested in him in the first place so he will be probably playing for us again next season.

[ant london]

fuck him the ungrateful disruptive shitstain

hope his mum gets kidnapped again and bummed

[eastlandsblue]

Bellamy will be cleaning his clubs to invite the little shitbag back.

[Bluez]

The thing I found most nteresting about that piece was how it states even while playing exactly where he wants to be he was overshadowed by Nymar.

We are not going to get our money back on Robinho and there will not be that many clubs willing to take a chance on him, maybe our best chance of getting something back would be to take a punt on one of teh Santos youngters. It might not work out but the alternative is to sell him for a massively cut price deal, I mean clubs will want a small transfer fee to deal with his wage demands.

A part exchange with another club such as Benfica might be possible, but I think they will also see it as a risk.

On one hand he served his purpose, he make the world take notice and he actually didn't do too bad in his first season, I seem to remember it was better than Berbaflop.
