Yeah ... and that was disappointing. I hope he isn't sulking because of some "he's Robinho and he has to start" BS

I didn't know he picked up an injury. If he hadn't, I'd have been even more disappointed in him, as he's been a Milan player for how long now? And how long does it take a professional footballer, out of shape, to get fit?
Nevertheless, since he was injured, he is excused. I just hope this isn't a Man City situation, where he is a completely different player only when he wears the Brazilian shirt.
That said, if he can reproduce his NT performances here in Milan, then I think he'll be better suited than Dinho to maximize Ibra's abilities. In which case, I sincerely hope he can either adopt to playing on the right, or in the hole.
-------- Ibra
-- Pato ------ Binho
or
--- Pato ---- Ibra
------- Binho
Why do you fear that? I'm all for Robinho to take out Gaucho if he can deliver. And specially if we will end up like Barca did.I somehow fear abt what a friend of mine who supports Barca said wen we signed Binho.
Some years back they signed henry when they already had Messi, Etoo and Dinho. And they were all wondering how they will fit all 4 in one team for 3 spots as all 4 were bonafide stars used to stars all their lifes. It ended with Dinho becoming lazy and fat and in Milan as he hates competition apparently. I was hoping it's all false, but now can't stop thinking of what he said.
Right now the way Dinho is playing ( he's contributing in assists, but he's losing too many balls and not doing anything abt it. Game 1 he was a much different player, tracking back and in very aggressive mood, don't know wtf happened) our best formation wen Pato comes back is
.........Zlatan
Pato ..............Binho
or
....Binho................Pato
...............Zlatan
I love Dinho, but he has to get his act together or Binho will get to start over him based on merit. LOL at people who call Binho a flop after playin 50 minutes in total with an injury.
Thats not an excuse for him being a lazy fuck. He's being paid 8+ mil a year to do his job. If he can't do it properly, and can't take the heat from other players who, at the end of it all, aspire to earn as much, then I suggest he step aside and/or find another career where he is happy doing what he's doing and in his comfort zone where he doesn't feel threatened.
Dinho still has exceptional touch and control, but this is where Binho will leave him way behind. Mobility, or rather a lack of it, is one aspect of Dinho's game that is being exponentiated in a Milan side that lacks it desperately. A lot of us agreed that our problem was having too many technical brilliant passers and visionary geniuses, and not enough runners ... players willing to break a sweat to get into a good position to receive the ball.
****** as usual. In six minutes as he was on the pitch he immediately started mixing it up with runs and involvement. He was dynamic and brought movement, even sparked a bit life into Ronaldinho. But of course you can't see that because he didn't score or make an assist in his six minutes.
Robinho needs to play alongside Ronaldinho, Pato and Ibra. Like he did at Santos with Neymar, Ganso and Andre. Right now he isn't fit, he didn't go through a real preseason and has some injuries now. But when he really returns, he will become Milan's best and focal player. Mark my words.
He played just few minutes. It's a samplesize you can't draw any conclusions. He came on and run a bit. Like any player in that position would have done. Lazio fell to defence and waited what we do just like other small teams(Catania). And Robinho sparked the team? Did Odu spark the team vs Catania? No, they just came on in a time they can only affect the game by luck. Still you parade here like he changed the game and jump on ultradefensive labelling and overblowing Robinho's presence. Nothing changed in the game's scenery, Robinho didn't have time to make any change.****** as usual.
