What should have been a bright new dawn ended up being more of the same for Manchester City as they slipped to defeat against Chelsea despite a debut-day opener from record signing Robinho. The £32.5million man paid off the first installment of his British record price-tag by putting Mark Hughes’ men ahead with a superb 13th-minute free-kick. The Brazilian took aim and calmly stroked the ball into the corner and celebrated in typical fashion thumb in mouth, before being mobbed by ecstatic team-mates.
