If he wanted to motivate him then we might as well have kept him. But Guardiola decided that he doesn´t want Dinho in the squad, so it seems something beyond just motivation. Even though I really respect this player for what he´s given to the club, and you sure you all know I´m a big fan lol but still for him to come back doesn´t make any sense to me, especially with younger and hardworking talents out there (Ribery, Silva Etc.) Plus I read that he´s more attached to the CITY itself than the club, so it doesn´t seem he wants to give up his nightlife. Maybe in the future, you never know what happens.
