Tyler Roberts

Post by Cjay » Wed Jan 31, 2018 1:04 pm

Arrives for an undisclosed fee believed to be £2.5mil

4 year contract

Leeds beat the likes of AC Milan and Marseille to the 19 year olds signature.

Welcome :)

It appears this lad was highly sought after and Pardew didn't want him to leave, so have to be pleased that we got him. I'm assuming that, despite his age, he's for the first team squad and not the already bloated U23s?!

I'd agree with hblb that if we manage to get a CH, then this has been a decent window. And that's from someone who hates the January window

Shoots with both feet, that's a bonus.

Roofe and Roberts have WBA history.

Perhaps or Lassie but profile says he’s skilful, extremely fast and an intelligent player so suspect TC may play Lassie and him up front together

Bolton' best player v us by a mile making us look second best at times. 6M buys an average striker these days..half the price of McCormack but a better overall player

Has suffered a cracked shin bone.

Thats him out for the season.

Awful for him and for us as our only signing is unavailable.

Inclined to wonder if he was ever fit and they knew he had an injury, wouldn't surprise me at all.

The manager said yesterday he had a very good chance of starting on Sunday, so looks like he was crocked in training.

ffs our lot even get red carded in training.
