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

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.

Thanks for your ideas about our country's football. I can add other players' names as a Turkish.

Hiddink manages Turkey

George Hagi, Giovanni Dos Santos, Jo Alves, AbdulKader Keita played for Galatasaray.
Elano and Kewell play for Galatasaray
Frank Riijkard manages Galatasaray

Anelka, Kezman, Roberto Carlos, Stephan Appiah played for Fenerbahce.
Niang, Guiza play for Fenerbahce

John Carew, Kleberson played for Besiktas
Del Bosque managed Besiktas
Quaresma, Guti, Matteo Ferrari play for Besiktas
Bernd Schuster manages Besiktas

Vassel plays for Ankaragücü.

I think you know all of this people. Most of them are coming for money but we dont want a football country like Qatar. We want to have big success like UEFA cup for our clubs. Galatasaray did this in 2000. If Robinho comes to our team Besiktas, we want to do this again and bring the UEFA with Robbie, Q7(Quaresma) and our maestro Guti.

Balotelli, Silva, Johnson.

Kolarov, SWP, Barry?

I mean that if Robinho comes to Besiktas, I'm sure that he will be so succesfull.

We all thought that too but I think after a year he will be causing trouble and demanding to return to Brazil. This is why they are only paying 20m with 12m coming later, as they won't have to pay the 12m if/when he gets bored and wants to leave.

I can't quite believe this move.

No offence to the Turkish people on here, but Turkey is the Graveyard for footballers. Similar to retiring to the USA and playing MLS!

And, anyway, we would only be left with Silva as a play maker in the team. That doesn't quite make sense, when Mancini can offload Robinho in January, if he really saw fit.

£16m up front and £10m in add ons aint bad at all if true

Have you ever heard about 'Çarşı'? Have you ever watched a live match of Besiktas in Inonu? If 28.000 supporters cheer 'Robinho Robinho' during the match and write songs to you, you can play 2,3,4 years I think:)

Not so sure about Guti and Quaresma. Quaresma had a spell at chelsea and was poor whilst Guti is old.

Robinho is top quality though. If he goes anywhere I would like him to go to a Turkish club. I like the way you support your clubs.
