Not sure if he deleted it and removed the hashtag.

When seen by itself, it seems pretty mild. I’m guessing Steve Davis is taking into account the years Robbie spent b*tching and moaning about how he was going to Europe, where his “talents” would be appreciated, while he was in Columbus. Robbie never had a bad game. He just wasn’t used correctly by the coaching staff. I’m sure his failure to catch on in Europe had everything to do with the coaching staffs and nothing to do with Robbie’s abilities. It’s hard not to immediately think “same old Robbie” as soon as you see this. Bottom line, you’re right. Robbie should get a chance to show he learned something about team and himself while in Europe. He may be a changed man. I wouldn’t bet on it, but it could have happened.

Not very ‘toxic’ at all in my opinion. Also fairly accurate as most leagues see a player returning after a stint elsewhere as a free agent/unlinked player.

At this point, he should be flattered that anyone in MLS puts actual value on his rights.
