Robbie Blake in Team of the Week

Last updated : 29 November 2002 By Tony Scholes

Perhaps the big surprise is the fact that not one of his team mates has joined him after we turned in an excellent performance. Marlon Beresford must have come close but the goalkeeping position went to Marcus Hahnemann of Reading who almost single handedly won his team the points in their 1-0 home win against Reading.

But there could never have been any doubt about Blake getting in there as he turned in yet another match winning performance for the Clarets, and certainly he is right on top of his form right now.

The full side selected was, Marcus Hahnemann (Reading), Matthew Taylor (Portsmouth), Robert Page (Sheffield United), Neil Cox (Watford), Matthew Upson (Reading), Jim Magilton (Ipswich), Shaun Derry (Crystal Palace), Julian Gray (Crystal Palace), Dennis Wise (Millwall), Vincent Pericard (Portsmouth), Robbie Blake (Burnley).
