Robinho makes shocking move to Man City!
September 2nd, 2008
I cant believe it! Robinho the wonder kid from Brazil has made an incredible £32M switch from Spanish giants, Real Madrid to Manchester City. Right at the last moment city tabled an offer that Real Madrid could not refuse! I can help but thinking that the star himself is somewhat disappointed though. I have a hunch that Robinho was set on making a move to Chelsea were an encouraging Filipe Scolari would be there to get the best out of him! But instead Mark Hughes will be there to offer a different approach which is equally good but not what he was expecting. For months robinho had worked himself into a very awkward position in declaring that he wants to leave Real Madrid as soon as possible but I don’t think this has really gone to p
lan for him.
I for one am very surprised by the move. At Chelsea he would of had world class, proven players around him to make him one of the best players in the world but I am struggling to think that he will have the same at Manchester City! AS for me, I am a Barcelona fan so this morning when I heard Robinho had left the Bernabeau I was very happy! I will definitely be raising my champagne glass this evening!

I don’t think anyone saw this one coming. £32.4million and not going to a Champions League club. You must think that Robinho really wanted out of Real and didn’t care too much where he went!
