Apparently Mancini has told him he can only play every other game max to which robinho replied "that would not be interesting to me, it's a World Cup year. " haha british record signing cant even get in the city team.

Because he's a workshy, charity event skipping, training camp avoiding, unauthorised leave taking tool.

I've heard he is being loaned and not sold. Robinho's value right is extremely under par to what they bought him for. Let say Brasil have a great World Cup and Robinho was part of that squad. His "performance " will raise his value and perhaps city are better off selling him in the Summer Transfer window. I heard he might go back to Brasil to play for his boyhood club Santos. If that is the case, he will join other big named Brasilian players currently playing in Brasil like Adriano and Wagner Love @ Flamengo and Ronaldo and Roberto Carlos @ Corinthians. As to why he is leaving, He needs to be playing week in and week out to make the Brasilian Squad. Dunga will not select him just because he is Robinho. In addition Robinho plays with much more heart and passion for his country than he does for his clubs (including Real Madrid) He also never wanted to go to City (he fired his agent after the Chelsea-City saga) so it was coming.

Robinho is making manchester city looking like a bad club by saying they want him out but robinho seems to be making up his own rules. Last week without even contacting the club he says to the media it would be 'exceptional' to play with Santos because the club doesnt let him start regularly. Fair enough he wants to move but he shouldnt be blaming the club because he is rarely ever fit to play and whenever he does play he plays without any motivation and lets the team down. I say don't give him what he wants because he hasnt given any effort to manchester city and don't loan him off sell him because he is useless. I'd say sell him to Real madrid for 32 million euros
