That's fair enough mate. I didn't really see Robbo do much wrong. Seemed to be effective in the air. Composed on the ball. He tried playing it out of defence instead of just hoofing it up.
As weird as it sounds, had I have seen Benners' first goal (which from what I heard he took very well) then he probably would have gotten in there. From what I did see, there was a lot of running, but he's always going to struggle up against defenders when the support is limited. On reflection, the two goals, and almost a hat-trick, should have been enough to see him in there.
As for Zebs; I didn't think his performance was all that bad. It was one of those games where the opposition definately clued up on him from the first minute. He was running alot, still causing problems. He got back helping out the defence, and when he had a bit of space, he used it effectively. No way was it his best performance, but I wouldn't say it was his worst.
EDIT: Just seen everyone elses top 4/5..
Was it just me who thought that Ellis had an absolute stormer then?!
