Alex Robertson will be available for selection for the Blackburn game at the weekend.

Omer Riza said:


"He has come through the injury well and he will be training through the rest of this week and then ready to go on Saturday. He will be ready to be in the squad (for Blackburn). With his previous injury, it was important not to rush him back."

I agree, has been a big miss for us the last couple of games.

Our best midfielder by a country mile Colwill and Turnbull have improved massively since they’ve played alongside him :old:

Deffo agree mate. Shame there wasn’t room for an enforcer in there too

I’ve always liked Ralls a much better footballer than he’s given credit for and a better DM than Siopis

This is what I was saying a couple of weeks ago when I said he would be hugely missed when not available.

I think some people were underrating his importance to us.

I know we beat Norwich, but it wasn't the same home performance because he has the ability to make the likes of Colwill and Tanner play in the space.

Glad he'll be back on Saturday.

Teams have had a few games to watch us and learn how to stop us. They are overloading our right-hand side, denying Tanner and Colwill any space and reducing the triangular passing in that area. Still, that should give ElGhazi and O'Dowda more room.

Robertson will make a difference, though. He and Turnball will drag a few away from Colwill, too. Let's hope he's rested and ready to get straight back into it.

No coincidence the levels have dropped since Robertson has been injured.

So happy to hear Robertson back tomorrow, he’s been missed massively, he’s a different level to everyone else , definitely a premier league player , I’ve no doubt . One of the best signings Cardiff have ever done and so cheap for his quality . If he :bluescarf: starts tomorrow then we will see the difference in positive forward play straight away I believe :bluebird:
