My big fear with Roberts(and I'm a fan) is that he's looked great under Rodgers. If there's one thing Rodgers is famous for, it's making wide players look amazing in his system. Scott Sinclair consistently looks good in his set ups. Raheem looked far, far better in it than he did under Pellers. There were others at Swansea too. So with that evidence in mind I'm fearful he's looking better in a system than he truly is right now. But the quality is definitely there.

My biggest fear is when I've seen him do special things for Celtic, inevitably the defending has been atrocious, Sunday league level stuff. The leap from that to dealing with low blocked PL defenders is literally enormous and not just one league up but several leagues up.

Rogers is a good coach but Pep is better. If we do keep Roberts it'll be because Pep's seen in him something he thinks is worth working with.
 
What isn't being discussed here is does Roberts want to return? Given news of the bid from Celtic, id hardly think they would go to that trouble unless they had been given assurances from the player he wanted the move.

Im happy for us to reject the bid and for Pep to take a look at the lad but any thoughts of him coming in and playing a regular role in the side next season are pie in the sky as far as i'm concerned and i will hazard a guess, Roberts knows it as well.

Just imagine

.................Gk
FB..........CB...........CB..............FB
.................Toure
............Silva.........KDB
Sanchez.........................Jesus
.................Augero

Bloody hell imagine the goals there... AND we have Sterling and Sane to rotate in!

Sane will be one of the top 5 attackers in the league next year, Sanchez shouldn't be being brought in to stunt that development, it would be suicide, regardless of rotation..

Now if he's being brought in to play in the hole, which is my own thinking, then happy days, a rotation of silva,KDB and Sanchez is much more feasible..


The 3 at the back formation will be explored more next year to give us that extra body in the box, we lack..

Playing the FM game, I'd say it will be something like

................GK..................

.....JS/NO.....vin......CB......

RWB.........Gun/CM..........LWB..

GJ/RS......KDB/AS/DS.......LS/GJ

................KA/AS/GJ/............

Obviously playful but a few additions at the high end and our variations are insane,

How I see it, the way people discount the gulf in class between the leagues is astounding, the kid himself is also displaying everything I don't want to see, acceptance of that quality and lack of desire to play at the very top. For me we block this, send him to a prem team and see how he holds out, we can do without dropping a bollock, just on the off chance he can cut it at a higher level...
 
Saw that the Chilean Football Federation announced their squad and listed Sanchez as a Bayern Munich player. Was quickly taken down and corrected. Hopefully a prank / mistake!
