pull your finger out Robbo

1. He was the first superstar to come to us (for whatever reason) but Hull away in winter is a bloody shock to anyone's system let alone someone from who grew up playing on the beach in Brazil.
2. Being arrested for rape in a foreign country mustn't have exactly been a giggle either.
3. Getting used to clods like Rory fucking Delap kick the shit out of you probably takes some getting used to.
4. Being boo'd off the pitch isn't great either is it.
So are we surprised he wanted to go home, to the warmth, where he's loved and can play his magic without having lumps kicked out of him? We shouldn't be.
But he's back. It's a new dawn. We have some new world class players who can have the shit kicked out of them instead. It won't all be about "let's flatten Robinho", which it was for his first season and a half.
Let's give the guy a break and see what one of the worlds best players can do for us.
