How very fickle of us to bemoan Robbie for saying what 90% of the people on here have been saying about Mancini before we destroyed Chelsea.bluejase said:Who the fuck does this guy think he is?Robinho said:It wasn't a lack of respect, though. I just think it was a lack of ability on the part of the manager
What people need to realise is that these interviews are being conducted in Portuguesse and there will be tranlsation issues. So ability might actually only be the nearest match to what he has said. He is also being asked specific questions by the media and the way questions are answered will be very different in Brazil to what it is over here....where every answer in a political one ...unless your asking Neil Warnock.
I remember a Robbie interview last month where he reportedly (according to the uk press) said that he would rather go fishing than join Diego at Juventus. What he actually said was he'd rather go to Santos, and the fish reference was actually used as a nickname for Santos. Things get lost/skewed in translation. There is every chance that he isn't being disrespectful, as the rest of the interview is just him being honest.
As usual the dick heads will jump on his back again. People on here can't wait to slate him. I imagine the very same people will be sticking up for 'Shaunny' on the other thread talking about how he's blue through and through...
