I'd prefer him to stay but if he wants to go then i'd lol at a so called superstar being so highly rated that he ends up playing in Turkey, no disrespect meant but come on..........
Turkish football. Club and National is of a high standard. Probably better than some of the Western European Leagues.
Every week some of the top Italian, French and Spanish players are being linked with moves to their top clubs.
Who manages Turkey? Hiddink
Where is Elano? Turkey
Where did Anelka go? Turkey
last week I read that Niang of Marseille, one of the top players in Le Championnat is moving to Fenerbahce
If one of their leading clubs: Gala, Fenerbahce or Besiktas was to play City over 2 legs I would not be confident of beating them.
The world changes. Your living in the 1970s. Not a bad decade as far as City were concerned, but not as good as this one's going to be<br /><br />-- Thu Aug 19, 2010 5:26 pm --<br /><br />

Really hope this happens. He doesnt want to be here just another disruptive player on stupid money causing bad press for the club.
If we get £18 - £20 million back for him I will be looking at this as exceptionally good business.
Robinho, RSC probably the last 2 big name players to be leaving. We are building a squad that will hopefully need minimal additions for the next 5 years these are the sort of players that have no part in our future.
Would be a good financial deal. In fact I think it could be regarded as a profit as transfer fees are written off over the length of a player's contract, but I would love to see Robinho play for City again. Given the players we have, and his experience I think he'd do better 2nd time around. There's not so much pressure on him to perform, and there are so many other good players in the squad. It would be suicide to double up on him.
Robinho is not half the problem for the coaching staff that the media make him out to be. he's just a very hugh profile player who attracts all kinds of stories because of his international profile. We need to get used to handling these players, and grow a thicker skin.
