Only involved because he messed up a sitter for the second and mishit the first. He hasn't played too badly though tbf

Roberto should tell the full backs to give Micah dodgy passes more often.

Enough slagging the lad, he is enough of a distraction that he is impacting this game. He is going to score.

Give the Guy a break, Pal. Scored the winner in the FA Cup and now involved with both Goals (so far) tonight.
Moving in to 4th tonight is the important thing here. We're half way there.

MOTM has already been decided. I think if we didn't pass back so much and do so many long balls we would be more than 2 up! We have been quite poor TBH even though we have 2 goals to show.

Quite nice being 2-0 up and not even playing well. Typical for a top 4 side!

Got to admit Benjani has done well as has Garrido.
"Like all bullies, they've just found out that there is a much bigger guy in town, someone who is richer and more powerful than their worst nightmare. And this smiling Arabic assassin is intent on stealing all the treasures they've nicked off everyone else, and pulverising them into commercial and footballing oblivion as he does so."

What a run by Richards.
If we were to make a sub I would want Benjani to come off and RSC to come on. Once we are 3:0 up, take off Petrov and bring on Robinho. :)
so now as every enemy circles our city
sour and sore, we swear war

Yeah, out of the two fullbacks, Zabba is the one having a bad day at the office today.

Exactly..Benjis havin a good bloody game..If theres a weak link upfront its Petrov.Hes not on it for me tonight..Hopefully turn it round 2nd half but i expect Mancini will unleash the Robson.

Quality of possession is great. There are long spells where Blackburn don't touch the ball. And on the opposite side, when they do get the ball, all they can do is punt it long to Nzozni, and give back possession to us...
I must remember to get a new signature.....

Bellamy hasn't been any better on the other wing, I'm afraid. I would like to see Sweep getting eased in after his injury.

The second goal has also given Benjani confidence. His movement is a lot more fluid now

lets not get carried away: impressive, but the Blackburn defence, and midfield parted like the proverbial Red Sea.
What was MOST impressive about it was the finish, after following up, just to make sure
