Brian Robson highlights

If he´d have played in the England vs West Germany game in WC 90, we´d have won it.

Exactly, Don Logan, it works best when u use the likes of Captain Marvel & Hoddle TOGETHER as a midefield PAIRING. W/o the likes of Robbo/Roy Keane in your midfield the back four are too exposed, IMO. Besides, Robson had VERY under-rated field vision, was a solid passer. and could find the back of the net; as his goals for England, 'Boro, & United showed.

i cant remember a weakness in his game!

Maybe his only weakness was picking up injuries in WC Finals? ;D Like I posted on another thread; I don't get supposed football "experts" who go on about how much better that England played as a team after Robbo was injured in the WC'86&'90 Finals. History might've been a little different if England would've had Robbo on hand to mark Matthaus in the '90 semis against W. Ger., IMHO.

he was unlucky he dislocated shoulder a few months before 86 finals and was rushed back.he got injured coz he went in hard so often.football in prem was warfare in them days

Yeah, I know, it was amazing that anyone left the pitch alive after the final whistle back then.

captain fantastic. btw Man United fans check out thestretfordend(.)net for all your United news, videos, and analysis

You probably have a point mate to be fair. Its a real shame, LeTissier was a god to many of us who wasn't Saints either. I still watch his goals to cheer myself up sometimes. Its criminal that he didn't get more games for his country, he had a gift that only a few English footballers had.

when hoddle was chelsea manager he nearly signed matt but he changed mind.hoddle holds grudge with best of them.

hoddle said to matt in dressing room before england b game just before wc98"go play yourself into the squad". matt scored great hattrick with both feet.lol
