Lol at blaming him for Ibra's red.

He has cost us a lot of points this season, though :(

Hopefully we will get at least some money and fester wont just invite him to pick whatever broke ass club in brasil he likes the most.

Sell him to england. He can dance se ti pegu in the rain. Not a problem for him since hes probably wet everytime hes faced with whatever can be already defined as a mild challenge anyway.

What a choker.:fp: And i really, really enjoyed his football in his 1st season.

Better in the second half than the fist half. Epic miss again though. Has he checked his eyesight?

Great player. Great game. Shame about the miss. Will have a great game against Udi and SCORE against Juve since Ibra isn't there to intimidate him. Ban me if he doesn't.

Don't get me wrong, I'm also disappointed. I can't understand for the life of it whats the problem. Hes doing everything else right. He has never been this way, NEVER. I think its time for him and Milan to acknowledge the problem and actually address it instead of ignore it and put it down to luck. Too many coincidences.

However, haters who think he isn't an elite player are comical. Lets dissect him. In terms of speed and technique (dribbling+touch) he is second to none, including Ronaldo and Messi. As a passer, hes better than pretty much everybody in his position. Now obviously he isnt a through ball maestro, but he shouldn't be, hes brilliant at linkup play and combo passing, which is what you need from a winger forward / support striker.

The best thing is he works more than anyone. His workrate is fantastic. You rarely get that with skilled players. Now, the downsides are hes mentally weak/not a leader, he doesn't have determination/spirit. hes also weak physically and the finishing issue, which should be a temporary phase.

I know he didn't fulfill his promise, but that doesn't make him worthless. However if his finishing woes continue to the end of the season, maybe it would be time for him to move on.

:thumbsup: Nice analysis of the guy. But something seems to be wrong with him - perhaps the whole transfer saga left a bad taste in his mouth? I'm speculating now, of course.

But like you say, if he doesn't buck up his ideas and we get Cassano back for next season then I sure won't fuss if we sell him in the summer. He was great last season, and had 14 league goals. I know he started this season injured, but there's got to me more to it.

It probably the second season syndrome, I remember Kaka 2nd season in Milan was nowhere near as good as his first.

ilicic is being criticized for the same thing now as well, others i can think off the top of my head are pastore, seedorf, ronaldo, rui costa... they had bad second seasons after a great first..... its cause of the expectations of the fans and probably the other players and teams figured out how to stop them

I knew he was going to miss that chance.

That's Robinho... typical Robinho...

I am not even mad at him for that. :D It's nature!

Just knew he'd miss when he got the ball, but then he did that first touch... A great first touch, taking the ball in infront of the defender, perfect! And then... wide... FUCK THIS!!!

COME ON ROBINHO, GOT YOUR SHIT TOGETHER

It wasn't one of his worst though... not even sure it would make a 'Robinho worst misses of the year' video.

I know. It comes not even close to many former misses of his.

And he's been off form anyway... El Shaarawy should have started :(

It's funny how everyone's posts in here now look like my earliest posts on this thread. Always thought him sucky, but that's certainly not a good feeling to have since he's a Milan player.
