Robbie heading back to Santos on loan

[Melon]

WHy would we let our record signing go somewhere on load and continue to pay most of his wages? It just doesn't make sense. Yes he's had a bad start to the season, but has spent most of it injured.

He is our best assest to get players we want. We are now in the market for players at clubs where money isn't the over ridding factor, its players. So if we were going to let robbie leave (which I doubt we will) we would be using him to get more players in.

I'm just fed up with us loaning out so many players and then leaving ourselves short of cover.
If we sell Robbie maybe the owners would actually let Mancini have the money to buy someone.

Whos's going to buy him?
If he is such a great player (I don't rate him personally) then he's been under performing for us, the club that are paying him a kings ransom. Now he wants his own way to suit himself, leave and play in the sunshine to warm up for the world cup. He doesn't give a shit about City and never has. We had a dozen good games out of him last season, this season he's been non existant, then he wants to go off on loan never to return. The whole thing is a complete disaster for City and it's all down to the egotistical, selfish, childish boy called little Robin.
This should be a very expensive lesson to City to chose the characters they recruit as carefully as they scout for talent.
