Robinho experiment set to fail, but the ManCity project lives on
“This kind of thing does happen. I know in Italy there were instances when clubs paid a lot of money for a fantastic player but afterwards he needed to play at another club.”
That’s Roberto Mancini’s polite way of explaining Robinho’s impending loan move to either Sao Paulo or Santos.
Things haven’t worked out for the former Real Madrid forward since his record breaking move in 2008, but such is City’s progress this year hardly a tear will be shed over his departure.
The enigmatic Brazilian’s exit will bring to a close a topsy turvy 18 months during which his club have undergone a dramatic and scarcely believable transformation.
Flashback to August 2008 and the new owners at Eastlands desperately needed a marquee signing to show they meant business. With less than 24 hours until the transfer window closed there were few options available. Dimitar Berbatov was looked at but he had set his heart on a move to Old Trafford. Robinho, on the other hand, was desperate to leave Real Madrid.
Chelsea were expected to snatch the forward but on one of the most exciting transfer deadline days ever £32.5 million was splashed out by the Abu Dhabi United group to bring him to City.
Mark Hughes was obviously delighted to have such a talented player in his squad, but the reality was he had no say in the deal and his side actually needed strengthening elsewhere. For starters the defence was vastly under equipped and it appeared Robinho was a luxury the team weren’t yet ready for.
Too often last season Robinho’s attitude left a lot to be desired. His flashes of brilliance were all too rare, especially away from Eastlands and Hughes’ attempts to shoehorn him into the side did more harm than good.
But following City’s transfer frenzy last summer, with the likes of Adebayor, Toure, Lescott and Tevez signing, the squad looked much better equipped to meet the owners’ high expectations.
Robinho was no longer top-dog - he was merely one of a number of stars. So when he failed to perform or he began to sulk he was out of the side, it was as simple as that.
He was meant to herald a new era at Man City, evidence they were no longer content to sit obediently in United’s looming shadow. Many would see his rapid departure a sign of the project’s failure, but instead it shows City have out grown Robinho already. They no longer have time for pre-Madonna’s and hangers on. They have football matches to win, and they won’t stop spending till they do so.
Indeed, it looks like the first stage of the plan could come to fruition this term with City closing in on the Premier League top four .
If the side are able to secure Champions League football this year, then you can bet on the Premier League title being the target next season.
