【题目】Brazilian football star Robinho,24,started his career in the English Premier League in a way no one, including himself, ever expected.

Having rebelled (反叛)against his former club, Spanish powerhouse Real Madrid, he could no longer stay. But then, he didn't have the slightest intention of going to Manchester City. Just the day before the transfer window was closed, Robinho called a press conference to tell the media that his mind was made up: He was going to Chelsea.

However, Madrid had sold him to City at the last minute, because the club made an offer far higher than Chelsea.

One of the summer, s longest-running soap operas ended dramatically, with a twist that wasn't in the script. I wasn't even thinking about City, Robinho admitted.

The forward is now wearing the sky blue of a club that had won nothing in 30 years, instead of the darker blue of a club that won two of the last four Premier League titles. Yet it seems the change hasn't affected the striker so far. His amazing form has shown the club that he deserves the British record transfer fee of 32,5 million they had paid. On October 26,he scored a hat-trick as Manchester City crushed (击败)Stoke 3-0. He took his City goals tally (积分)to six in eight games.

"My main objective is that the team does well, but my personal objective is that I achieve 30 goals, he said. "I still have a lot to give and to learn.

Robinho is fluent in Spanish as well as his native Portuguese, but has still not started learning English. He promises that in six months, he will be able to speak the language without problem. My English so far is two out of 10. I haven't started ray language classes yet as I'm still living in a hotel. But as soon as I move to my own place, I will have more time for that. In six months' time, my English will be 10 out of 10.
