QUOTE (X-Offender @ Apr 7 2011, 05:41 PM)  Agreed. Eto'o was nowhere near as devastating last season with Inter as he's been this season. He scored only 16 goals in 47 games. Didn't Eto'o play quite a bit wide on the wing? Or was that for international level. I've genuinely forgot. |

Indeed. Not a good example for comparison.

Oh, and he hasn't been playing wide this season? The position matters little. It's the form that counts. The dynamism and agility that Eto'o has this season was nowhere to be seen last season. He needed time to adapt. Same argument for Robinho.

But the when Pato comes along, position matters again, right? I don't agree with you because Eto'o wasn't that poor in finishing last season, he never had that kind of basic problems. And anyway, even if it is just a question of adaptation, I hope he does it soon because it eventually will grow into a mental problem. |

I was just asking, I'm not against Robinho and I was when we first got him. I think he offers us something that our other players don't (no jokes about missing open goals etc..!). Though, I would say the position matters if we are talking about goalscoring credentials. |

I just brought up the argument of the goals to strengthen my point, don't take it as primary evidence. My point is that we should give Robinho some more time before we give a proper judgment on his capabilities. Like Eto'o has become Inter's leader this season, Robinho could turn into a very important player for us next season. Including his finishing getting better.

Agreed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) But my only fear is that there is a massive gap between Eto'o and Robinho. One is a proven winner and a total douche, the other is just a total douche. In case this hasn't been evident from my posts, it's all in the brain when it comes to Robinho IMO - there is no doubting his talent or his drive/spirit that he displayed this past few months. As much as he has done and run for us this season, it only takes a few bad weeks for players like Robinho to fall off the tracks.
Fingers crossed nothing like this happens anytime soon, and if it doesn't, then we could be in for a good year or two! |

Like Eto'o has become Inter's leader this season, Robinho could turn into a very important player for us next season. Including his finishing getting better. Robinho is a very important player for us already this season. It's unfair to compare Robinho to Eto'o, surely when it comes to finishing. Eto'o is maybe the best striker there is and he is a great goalscorer which is Robinho's weakness, but he has got many great other strengths which makes him a great supporting striker. Unfortunality people only cares for goals when looking at a forward, but fail to see the importance Robinho has got in making Milan a strong team with a strong attack. I care for the team, therefore I want Robinho (to stay) at Milan. |
