Benjani is giving Adebayor a thing or two to think about.
To be fair, we know he's not a World class finisher, but his support play has been top notch.

Possibly his best ever City performance, and people will probably forget what a thankless task he often had to do in his tireless running, with no support

No Blue would last without a sense of humour. A drink helps, also.

Cheers.

Benjani offers the physical presence that we presently miss without Adebayor and even Caiceido. Blackburn are a dirty side and would frustrate Robinho or Santa Cruz out of the game.

No need to worry though. 3-0 now!!!

With the cold spell you are having, I am certain he could.

Att. 40 200. Not bad considering the weather and apparently only 450 Blackburn fans.

Right, I fancy a bit of Robinho, RSC and SWP please.

For Bellers, Benji and Petrov - give them a rest.

Thats why he will never be a top class full back. Great heart and touches of brilliance, but thats just stupid - again.
