I think quite the opposite. Mancini will have seen the need for a big man up front against Blackburn, hopefully Benjani will - if nothing else - batter their centre halves and create space for Petrov, Tevez and Bellers to exploit.
At this stage of Robinho's recovery from injury, the last 30 mins should be enough, especially if we're 2 or 3 up and he can go on and express himself with no pressure. Same goes for SWP.
