Real Madrid's Robinho: Capello sacking normal

Robinho says he wasn't surprised by Real Madrid's sacking of coach Fabio Capello.

Despite supporter protests, Real pushed through president Roman Calderon's plans to dismiss Capello as they celebrated a first title victory in four years.

"It's a normal change," shrugged Robinho. "I've never had any problems with any of the coaches I've worked for."

"I don't know if they've already found a replacement for him."

Robinho added: "We must remember that this decision has been made by a united board."
