Crikey, as we say in England. The reasons why Robinho was willing to relocate to Manchester suddenly become clear:
The 24-year-old has agreed a four-year contract that makes him the highest-paid footballer in the history of the game, with a weekly salary of £160,000.

For those of you not used to the quaint habit that British newspapers have of expressing multi-million pound salaries in a working-class "weekly wage" fashion, let's put it this way: that amounts to about $15 million a year.

"It's all too beautiful", the Small Faces reminded me on Sunday when Ji-Sung Park scored his 18th minute goal.

I've had a bit of a pop at him over the last few days and I'm not afraid to say that I loved Mr Park for a few minutes on Sunday. Just a few minutes, mind you. I still think he doesn't deserve a place in the starting line-up but he WILL win me round if he keeps scoring important goals.
