Yep tell a fellow fan to F off etc for raising a question about a £32m player who is now taking the piss out of our club and it's long suffering fans, well done mate.
Do you think Robinho has provided value for money thus far?

Juninho is probably the closest, he was very good for 1 season (in which Boro were relegated) so I'll give you that, but was he ever 'great'?
Silva-steady pro but not an all time great Brazillian player.
Seriously though, Romario, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho etc all knew they'd be exposed in the prem and never came.

Wasn't Gilberto Silva the national captain??

What I saw was 11 players putting in a very poor show, I hold my hands up. However the likes of Zab, SWP, Ireland not strolling around, not tracking back etc but they were as poor as the Brazillians on the ball.
It's the attitude that appalls me, as I said let's not forget we paid £32m for Robinho.
Do you ever go to the games?
Robinho away has been a problem for much of the season, but that's got nothing to do with his attitude, and more to do with not being capable as a team to take control of games away from home
Very few teams can go away from home, and play 3 forwards
Today we played one of the best teams in Europe, with key players missing, and had very little rest since our last game.
If you'd been at the game on Thursday night you might have been surprised to see Robinho play today. He's clearly not 100% fit

They were before the Prem became the place to be.
I'd say Robinho has taken the prem by storm at home. Not bad for a 1st season playing with worse players then he is used to.

I disagree totally, he has dominated in a few games.

Elano was our best player today, except for the CB's. I too would have had an attitude if I was him, getting subbed for a sprinter masquerading as a footballer.
