Robinho makes Liverpool trip

Record signing Robinho will travel to Liverpool with Manchester City tomorrow, even if the £32.5m striker is unlikely to play.

The subject of so much media talk last week, when he left City’s training camp in Abu Dhabi and did not return, preferring instead to remain with his national side ahead of their victory against England, Robinho has not featured in a competitive game since injuring his ankle on international duty against Argentina in September.
