Robinho FM property diagram

Through the FM2010 attribute chart, it can be seen that Robinho, who has outstanding advantages and disadvantages, is a typical South American Latin attacking player, excellent physical coordination and close to the explosive technology and dribbling ability to ensure that the hardware foundation of the "cycling teenager" shocked the world, but the unique style of the ball and the relatively struggling mental attributes have become the insurmountable natural barrier of the Brazilian demon front; next, we will enter the football world of Robinho together.

Angel among the devils

Born on January 25, 1984, the protagonist Robinho was born in San Vicente, São Paulo, Brazil, in this famous coastal resort in Brazil, football is an important part of the amateur life of locals, and like many of our fans' impressions of Brazilian boys, as a child, Robinho often plays street football barefoot on both sides of the road.

A Brazilian born for football

However, in his childhood, Robinho's living environment was very harsh, and the infamous slum in the city of San Vicente was where Robinho grew up, which was full of violence, drugs and crime, and the young Robinho was greatly affected by the psyche, and the football under his feet became his only spiritual sustenance.

The purgatory environment created a solitary personality of The Younger Robertinho, and also bred his innate talent for football, the football angel successfully broke free from the shackles of the devil and soared freely; in 1997, Robinho left his hometown and went alone to santos, 8 kilometers away, to join Brazil's famous "star incubator": Santos Youth Training Camp.

Neymar in the Santos period

Santos club has a long reputation, the ancient king Pele and now the Brazilian brother Neymar are out of this club, at that time Brazil and even the world's most advanced youth training system, Robinho's football talent can be fully exploded, in 2002, just turned 18 years old Robinho was promoted to santos adult team.

It is worth noting that along with Robinho to the first team is also the brazilian demon star Diego, who is equally talented in the future, from the 2002 season, the "twin stars" Robinho and Diego led Santos to blow a youth storm in south America, winning the Bajia championship and reaching the Final of the Copa Libertadores made Robinho's reputation shocked.

Robinho of the Santos period

Stepping on a gorgeous bicycle, playing the best football, the dazzling data of 21 goals in a single season has made Robinho's popularity soar in Brazil, nicknames such as "Bicycle Boy" and "Pele II" have emerged in an endless stream, and soon the opportunity to rise to fame is in front of Robinho's eyes, and many giants from the five major leagues in Europe began to chase the Brazilian demon boy.

However, behind the glory aura also flashed a hint of worry, when the "Sports Weekly" in the introduction of Robinho once recorded such a detail: once, Santos Gemini Robinho and Diego participated in a business event, in the shooting of the makeup photo, the naughty Robinho pulled down Diego's suit pants, causing the audience to laugh, but also made the shy Diego blush.

Diego

The seemingly playful move reflects the demonic side of Robinho's inner heart, and his obedient personality makes the Brazilian demon star too immersed in his own world and ignore the feelings of others, which also lays a sad foreshadowing for his bumpy career in the future.

Arrogance and water cover are difficult to harvest

Returning to the truth, in 2005, with his outstanding performance in Brazil, Robinho was successfully selected for the national team and helped five-star Brazil win the Confederations Cup with 2 wonderful goals; in August 2005, La Liga giants Real Madrid spent 24 million euros to buy 60% of Robinho's ownership, and the 21-year-old Brazilian demon star successfully got the "ticket" of the "Galaxy Battleship".

Joined Real Madrid

Robinho, dressed in the "gorgeous coat" of South American demons, naturally wants to fly at the Bernabeu, and Real Madrid also handed over the No. 10 shirt worn by Figo to Robinho, and the Brazilian's unique "Renga" attribute has also earned Robinho enough popularity in the hearts of Real Madrid fans.

But the only objective fact is that the time point when Robinho came to the Bernabeu coincided with the final stage of the "Galaxy Phase I", leaving Relatively little time for Robinho to fully adapt to the rhythm of La Liga, coupled with the extremely high expectations of the club for Robinho, and the embarrassing situation of the green and yellow made the Brazilian demon star's fault tolerance almost zero.

Wonderful performances during the Real Madrid period

In his three seasons with Real Madrid, Robinho has made 137 appearances for the Galaxy and contributed 34 goals plus 27 assists, although helping Real Madrid win two La Liga titles, but in the competition with Van Nistruy, Raúl, Cassano, Reyes, Higuain, Robben and other frontcourt attackers, Robin did not have a clear advantage, which is very different from the original intention of the Brazilian demon to conquer the Bernabeu.

Rifts quietly appeared, the ambition of the golden iron horse, the tiger like a tiger, Robinho urgently need a team with himself as the core to prove his strength completely, the Brazilian target is the Premier League upstart "Blues" Chelsea, on August 31, 2008, Robinho held a press conference at the Euro Hotel in Madrid, publicly expressed his determination to switch to Chelsea, and no longer play for Real Madrid.

A turning point that changed fate

At the critical moment of the sword, the sudden intervention of another mysterious force directly changed the direction of Robinho's career, in August 2008, Abu Dhabi Group acquired Manchester City, the veteran premier club of the Premier League, from then on, the "Blue Moon Army" shotgun exchanged guns and began a journey of local tycoons.

Abu Dhabi Group's first big gift to Manchester City fans was to intercept Chelsea from Real Madrid for a sky-high price of 32.5 million pounds to buy the "dribbling master" Robinho, and the Brazilian star's whistle transfer not only refreshed the Premier League transfer fee record that year, but also directly shocked the entire world football.

Joined Premier League upstart Manchester City

It is worth mentioning that although Manchester City had a large amount of transfer funds at that time, the "upstart" posture made many world-class stars prohibitive, and the failures of Rubin Kazan and Malaga were the best evidence; it can be seen that the brave Robinho was the first person to "eat crabs", but also the first to be "stabbed by crabs".

It turns out that City under Hughes did go through a "painful period" before the rise, and Robinho looked more like the biggest "victim" of this difficult period; although it became the absolute core of the team, The overall performance of Manchester City and frequent injuries became a stumbling block to Robinho's career.

Wonderful goals from the Manchester City period

In just one and a half years of Roberto's time for Manchester City, the data of 16 goals and 12 assists in 53 games is difficult to satisfy Manchester City fans, and the move of flying back to Brazil for a vacation without work has made Robinho and The Manchester City management drift away, in preparation for the World Cup in South Africa, in early 2010, Robinho, who had just recovered from an ankle injury, returned to Santos on loan to maintain his form, and Robinho's blue moon career also ended.

However, the moment Robinho left was also the time when Mancini entered the host, under the leadership of the Italian coach, the "Blue Moon Army" gradually got on track and staged a miracle of winning the championship in the 11/12 season; Robinho, who was more than the sky, neither became the new core of Real Madrid, nor could he witness the rise of Manchester City, and the Brazilian star's mood at that time must have been mixed.

Paper drunken gold fans and wander the world

Joined AC Milan

Time to the summer window of 2010, Serie A giants AC Milan signed Robinho at a price of 18 million euros, which is the last chance of redemption for the 26-year-old Robinho in europe's top competition, and AC Milan still insists on signing Robinho when he already has Ibrahimovic, Pato, Xiao Luo and other midfielders, which shows that Rosenelli is looking forward to the revival of the "cycling teenager".

The 10/11 season was the honeymoon period between Robinho and AC Milan, 46 games in all competitions 15 goals and 6 assists data helped AC Milan successfully pull the then Serie A team of Inter Milan down the altar, but Milan City is like a kaleidoscope, for players with high self-discipline here is the temple of football, and for players with poor self-discipline, all that is left here is paper drunk fans.

A wonderful goal from the AC Milan period

Under the lights of Milan City, the Achilles heel of many South American players who have come out of the slums has been infinitely magnified, and Robinho is one of them, with endless lace news and frequent injuries almost swallowing up Robinho's athleticism, and the Brazilian star who has declined sharply in form has gradually faded out of the main framework of AC Milan.

On January 22, 2013, Robinho was involved in another gang rape case, where Robinho, his friend Ricardo Falco and four other men were suspected of gang-raping a 22-year-old Albanian woman in a nightclub in the city of Milan.

Brief return to Santos

At this time, Roma's career was no longer favored by the top five league clubs in Europe, and after a brief return to his parent team Santos for one year, Robinho began a wandering journey.

In July 2015, the Chinese Super League Guangzhou Evergrande Club announced that it signed a contract with free agent RobinHoga for 6 months, in a short period of half a year, Robinho made 9 appearances to contribute 3 goals, helping Guangzhou Evergrande achieve the fifth consecutive championship in the Chinese Super League, the AFC Champions League was limited by foreign aid, Robinho failed to follow the team to personally lift the AFC Champions League Gold Cup, but in the subsequent Club World Cup, Robinho became a business card for Guangzhou Evergrande to show to fans around the world.

Brilliant goal from Guangzhou Evergrande period

In the following four years, Robinho has played for Atlético Dei Nordo, Turkish Super League Sivas Sports and Istanbul, and the continuous wandering has made Robinho's last football talent exhausted, and the once prodigy of Brazilian football has gradually faded from the mainstream media.

Conclusion: The Devil among Angels

At the end of 2017, Robinho was sentenced to nine years in prison in the first instance for rape, and at the end of 2020, the Italian court announced that it rejected Robinho's appeal and upheld the nine-year prison sentence, which means that as long as Robinho sets foot on the European continent again, he will face prison.

A contradictory combination of angels and demons

And for The transformation of Robinho's life from "Ball King" to "Prisoner King" is really lamentable, fans have too fragmented memories of his career to make it difficult to clearly discern why his football journey has fallen into such a situation, but in any case, the wonderful picture of the former "Pele II" dancing the "Hell Bike" will forever take root in the deepest part of our souls.
