Man City’s Robinho: Capello had no time for Brazilians at Real Madrid

Manchester City midfielder Robinho admits he regrets the way he left Real Madrid.

Robinho is currently on-loan at Santos, where he scored in his first comeback game on the weekend.

"I was not happy at Real," said Robinho, "I know that Fabio Capello (the former Real coach) did not like Brazilians."

On former Real president Ramon Calderon, he also told Globo: "He did not treat me well."

Robinho admits he regrets the way he forced a move out of Madrid through the media: "The fans, who despite being very demanding of me, did not deserve such treatment."

Statement is true...Capello did not want Brazilains...especially those that party all night and comes to training half drunk.....These people do not have the proper attitude and professionalism needed to be a successful football plaeyrs. Perhaps it is from their family background that some good football players from Brazil can not handle success......Counselling perhaps ?...No it is like talking to a stone.
