Yes to all of those (especially Benarbia at Sheff Weds), plus:
Berkovic at home to Norwich
Kinkladze at home to Newcastle, and away at both Oxford and Southend
Hart away at Spurs in a 0-0
The Goat at Burnley
Sergio away at Spurs when he went off after 20 minutes (the best 20 minute cameo ever)!
Paul Stewart at home to Bradford
Paul Lake in a 4-0 defeat at Arsenal. The rest of the team was dogshit. Lakey was majestic

Good shout on all the above.
One game I remember is when we beat Spurs at WHL in a night game a few years ago. Sergio was outstanding, he ripped them apart.

Great shout for Wanchope and Ali I was both of them games . Bishop in the playoff final coming on at halftime if I remember correctly ? Turned the tide.

Weaver vs Ipswich Town 1999. We won 1-0 and he made four or five staggering saves.
Edit: Joe Royle bollocked him for doing cartwheels at the end of the game, as it was only October.

Wanchope at Leeds away was awesome.a complete center- forwards display, and more.
White at villa in the 5-1 ,with four goals.
Bernarbia at sheff wed was sublime.

Dennis Tueart against Newcastle in 1975. Think we won 5-1 and he ripped them to pieces.

Some great shouts mentioned that I'd forgotten about:
Kinkladze away at Oxford, I remember he was unbelievable that day, think he scored 2? He also got the "Nationwide away performance of the week" that week. That actually meant something to me at the time as I assumed we'd never win another trophy!
Tevez at home to Stoke, think it was a few days after the cup final? The game was a bit of an "After the Lord Mayors Show" and Tevez pretty much played them on his own and just tore them apart. Think he scored a brilliant free kick? I've got to say, with the talk of individual performances, that season Tevez had so many games where he just carried the whole team on his back. I genuinely think he was the third best player in the world during that season.
Got to agree with @Mike N on Aguero away at Spurs though, I actually think that might be the best performance I've seen, even though it barely lasted half an hour. His movement was just from another planet that night. That was the fittest, sharpest, and most devastating I've ever seen him. And he bloody pulled his hamstring.

I'd forgotten about that. On fire that day
I was at that game. The spirit in that team was great. So many late wins.
That's the one I was going to say. Made an amazing save from Jim magilton. Pretty sure they filmed the crowd after the game to be used in the Jimmy grimble film.
Silva at west brom this year also

Wanchope up front on his own at Dirty Leeds, about two days after returning from Costa Rica was phenomenal
He harried and pushed all four defenders and helped us to a 2-1 win

Pretty sure that was a night game and Ipswich were playing some great stuff at the time. I went expecting a defeat but weaver saved us.
For long periods that was the story of the season. Keeper heroics and a kennedy piece of skill or Goater winners rescuing three points.

Keith Curle v Spurs away in 92 or 93. Lineker was even smiling to the crowd at how good he was that day.
Talking of Spurs.... Berbatov in the quarter final at home when we lost was a great performance under the wrong circumstances.

I think that finished 1-0 with a quinn looping header winning it. I remember buying a video 'breaking the record' as we won four away games on the spin. They even chucked in a 2-2 with luton where quinny scored an amazing volley from a ian brightell?? Overhead kick cross.
Berbatov was outstanding in all those games that season. A real lesson in leading the line

Peter Barnes vs Chelsea 1978 i think. Pretty sure we won 6-2 and he was just unplayable, continually twisted their defence inside out, stopped, went back & twisted them inside out again!!
