Roberts first contribution is for their goalie to boot the ball into his back

leeds we played well first half and i expect the same squad against Man U on satruday... However very dissapointed that roberts has a future at our club he is shite to put it politely, and i'm worried that we see roberts filling in for a £30m say central midfielder very worried, we need 3 more players in my opinion to better our last place in the prenier league if noene else comes in then we are never going to better that league status. really really hope at least at least 2 new players come in for the first team before dead line day.

Roberts looks just as lost as Rodrigo, but at least Rodders carries a goal threat

Fully agree mate.

I find our unwillingness to invest serious money into adding creativity into our cm really weird.

Unfortunately Phil has confirmed the club have no intention of doing it.

Paraphrasing a bit but basically they were going to but they feel the form of Rodrigo and Roberts in the final games of the season was enough to convince them that they dont need to.

weird really because in Rodders final 5 games of the season he did manage 4 goals and 1 assist, unfortunately he was playing in midfield in only 1 of those matches ( in all the others he was the striker).

And as for Roberts he played the majority of the final minutes of our last 10 games in 7 matches and managed 1 assist whilst playing in midfield.

So the clubs logic is extremely flawed to say the least.

I cant understand it :(

2 midfielders was a priority for me, a starting creative midfielder and a successor to Klich/KP competition

Costa finds the first man and we get a corner.
