Robinho

[LCBblue]

(If in the wrong forum please Mods, feel free to move), Well as you all know I've been at home watching the game tonight because of the god damn weather ;).

Anyway, I would very much like to say my piece on Robinho's performance today! Some of the negative old gits on here will say it was an easy game for him to come on and play in, but it's Blackburn, a very physical team and he Robbie has been out for a few months and I think he has done really well, some fantastic touches, few good runs at the defenders. And importantly, what some people don't seem to realise, his movement off the ball and the way he attracts 2, sometimes 3, defenders towards him and away from the player with the ball is very clever and the sign of a good footballer.

If Robbie can replicate this form that we've seen today in full games and convert shots into goals, then we have the Robbie of last season, and then Bobby will have some real selection headaches! :) Well done Robbie today, top performance from you, and top result for City!

(And Tevez hatrick, 2 quality goals and 1 goal ;), Tevez = City legend)

Average imo. Came on when we were winning. Did OK. Not really any more than anyone else.

I think he played well in his 22 minutes appearance. I would have liked for him to start the game because it would have helped him with his match fitness. Nevertheless, he's movement and his passing skills were on display and i think once he gets back to his best, the game will be a lot easier for the guys.

Just an opinion. Not a moan. An opinion. He did Ok but so did a lot of players tonight. Also the game was won when he came on. I hope he does do the business over the rest of the season, but need more than tonight to be convinced.
