Robinho insists he's fully committed to the cause at Manchester City.

His attitude and support for manager Mark Hughes has been brought into question but Robinho, back home in Brazil for World Cup qualifiers against Ecuador and Peru, said: "I truly dedicate myself to my club.

"Sometimes I am questioned, asking why I play better for the national squad than at Manchester City. I am the same at both places, but Manchester City is one team and the Brazil national squad is another.

"In all respect to Manchester City, who have good players, here I play with Kaka and Ronaldinho. It is totally different. But I believe I am playing well at City and have scored 11 goals in the league."
