F***ing stormer of a game. Kept Arsenal's entire right hand side quiet without much help from Meireles in front of him.
With Aurelio's injuries problems, Kelly out for the season, Johnson out for a few more weeks, Wilson carrying a knock should give Robbo a few more opportunities between now and the end of the season. And if he performs like he did today, he'll certainly be involved for a few more years.
This year we've seen Kelly, Spearing, Flanagan and now Robbo stake a claim to be in and around the first team next year because they're not looking out of their depth at this level. The future is certainly look bright for Liverpool. Could be returning to the days of producing a shed load of local youngsters within a few years of each other.
What could halt Robbo's (and the other youngsters') progress is Kenny not getting the job full time. I personally feel that if there'd be any other manager in charge this year, we wouldn't of seen Flano and Robbo in the last two games. Would of ended up shifting the entire side round playing players out of position. But Kenny knows to entrust his youngsters.
