Passion, determination, drive, dig, good left foot and he's the only leader in the squad.

You can sum up the first 4 things by just saying determination. And you're right, he has determination in abundance. But it doesn't really matter when he can't do eff all with the ball when he's got it, can't pass, no first touch, gives away to many fouls, always turns back on his first touch...

He can hit a decent corner, and I don't see how he's a leader? By giving away countless fouls by going through players? That's not the type of leader I'd want in my team.

Robson is a better passer of the ball than people give him credit for. He's no playmaker but he's just as good as N'Guemo and better than Brown at ball retention.

Want N'Geumo and Crosas to start but the slagging Robson gets is unreal.

No he's not, he's nowhere near as good as either at keeping the ball, or at playing football in general.

Pure hyperbolic pish. He was better than either against Hamburg last time. He's become the new Donati-the easy choice to slag off as an awful footballer when in reality he's nowhere near as bad. The minute people are saying Scott bloody Brown is a better passer than Robson is the minute myth overtakes fact

The people that say Scott Brown's a pish passer are talking pish. :thumbsup: A complete and utter myth. And Robson was murder against Hamburg at home, although N'Guemo wasn't too much better.

when nguemo has the ball and he's under pressure, he keeps it very well especially for a small guy like him. He holds off guys very well.

robson, with all his 'dig' and power is nowhere near as good as nguemo at that.

i've seen robson too many times playing for my liking, and i've seen nguemo play a lot too.

nguemo's passing is shocking at times - but robson is hardly better. I'd rather have nguemo playing over robson any day.

i agree with cfc88

I love robson, but i dont believe he is the best option for this game. If Mowbray was going to play Robson i thinjk he would have played him at the weekend.

No they wouldn't, a complete myth which is now considered fact by some, when infact his passing is quite good, as is his touch.
