  Man City boss Mancini wants Robinho sold

  Robinho is set to leave Manchester City, it has been revealed.

  The Sun says manager Roberto Mancini has run out of patience and told the £32.5million flop he is no longer in his plans.

  And while the Brazilian will play at Scunthorpe in the FA Cup fourth round tomorrow, it is so Mancini's favoured players can have a rest.

  Despite 15 goals last season, some of Robinho's away displays were awful and he has slipped out of favour.

  City are in talks with Barcelona and Brazilian side Santos as they try to offload the striker, who turns 26 on Monday.

  Santos locked in Robinho loan talks with Man City

  Santos are in talks with Manchester City about a loan deal for their former star Robinho.

  The Telegraph says City manager Roberto Mancini has been dismayed by Robinho's performances since succeeding Mark Hughes at Eastlands and he has informed City's football administrator, Brian Marwood, that he is ready to part with the player.

  Although the two clubs remain some distance from agreeing on financial aspects of the deal, which would involve Santos paying a substantial proportion of Robinho's £160,000-a-week wages, sources at City believe a compromise can be reached.

  Ah Ben cannot handle super star like Robinho.

  He can only handle lamb like Lucas and Kuyt, who never say bad things against their manager.

  Liverpool also cannot afford him.

  Dun think Man City will wanna loan him to Liverpool since both clubs are eyeing for that lucrative 4th spot.

  Robinho has been a negative influence since the day he negotiated his way to Real Madrid by throwing tantrums, refusing to turn up for training and held Santos ransom. He joined City not for sporting reason, he doesnt even know which club he signed for at the press conference!

  I think City should cash in on him while they can.

  only chelsea and barcelona can afford to pay for his transfer at this time, besides RM.

  agreed with you.

  seems he developed a reputation for not playing well for away games.

  Just curious, given his negativity, Barca is still interested?

  given they got a stable team, y bring in a "diva" that may de-stabilise their current setup.
