He didn't walk the walk last season when he was fully fit, just had a few cameos and scored the odd goal, he's been figured out now and isn't gonna get any better.

He scored more than the odd goal in his first season in the prem by the way. Broke his foot start of the seaon just coming back from said injury, now how about you wait 6 or 7 games let him get match fit and get confident in his game and his foot, and then call him shit.
He's had a few games to get fit, he's been in full training for ages now and it wasn't like a long term injury like Johnno, Boj, Petrov. People will be saying give him more time in 5 years.[/quote]

You must be pissed or on a wind up, you kill your argument by saying daft shit like this "People will be saying give him more time in 5 years" just give him like i said 6 or 7 games, god you would think we lost today we won and Robinho that crap player who everyone has sussed set one of the goals up, im done mate.

bottom line is robbi is one off the worlds best players an he plays for man city, he's not fully match fit but the only way he will be is by playing games.

ill support any player in a city shirt and all off you should too

I keep hearing this but see no evidence of it! He was a bit player at Real Madrid side and now plays for a club who have won nothing for 30+ years who whether we like it or not are not one of the worlds biggest/best known sides.

He has scored some great goals in his career including a respectable 19 in 71 for Brazil but so did Matt Le Tissier, I think this world class tag is more down to the marketing men over at Nike, because the likes of Messi/Kaka/Ribery/Ronaldo and going back 10 years Zidane/Ronaldo/ etc etc were on a different planet to this player!

Robbie is out of form right now and in one of those runs when nothing comes off, but we all know that will change.

Bad form for 18 months?

He's 26 in a month and someone said on the radio "he still has potential".
Potential? At 26? Half way into his career ...

Hm.
He was 3rd top scorer in the league last year and that was playing wide left all season!
 
I don't know what's going on with him just now. I know he's had injury problems but he's been ordinary and marginalised even when match fit. I hope we stick with him though because I'm sure he'll get better. You only have to look at Tevez. His form at the start of the season was disappointing in the extreme but a succession of goals and great performances followed eventually.

You say set a goal up like he meant it, he miss kicked a tap-in.

It's not the price tag making people like me, "irrational".

It's the price tag making you all think he's going to produce something.

It is making you irrational when you state:

He's jsut come back, I'll give you that but for 32m he should be back in with flying colours.

Not good enough.

You act like for 32m the player has to be superhuman. All players need a few matches to get back up to speed after a lengthy layoff.
 
We've got Slobinho
We've got Slobinho
We've got Slobinho
We've got Slobinho
We've got Slobinho

Seriously tho - have often thought he was a lazy bastard but he can turn a game....... I hope he comes through this phase and turns out to be our player of the season although Bellamy is already mine - just for the strike against the SCUM at the theatre of silence

City fans don't get behind players who are out of form and low on confidence.

This.

Expect a 50 page thread proclaiming why we should sell him, because he's had a bad season so far. I still haven't forgiven you lot for doing the same to my hero, Dunne. 5 brilliant seasons, 1 bad one and we had loads of threads here to sell him.

I'm with you Damocles. Had Robbie nicked a goal today it would have turned his season round. The lad is desperate to do well and the more he tried the worse it looked. He is the sort of player that can win the match from nothing - a piece of Brazilian magic, which at the moment needs some nurture not a slagging off. He will come - hope he gets a start at Wolves. I would play Petrov, Bellers, Tevez and Robinho.

He was there to miss kick it tho, when he gets his match fitness and form back he will score them chances i think deep down you know this as well.

bellamy >>>>>> robinho

id fuckin rather ade played in that position
Well that's obvious to everyone. I said it in September and got the piss ripped out of me. As I said earlier on, the only people who think Robinho is better than Bellamy are Under 12's and Brazilians, and probably his mam.
