Roberts is the same age as Sane and Jesus. And if Celtic wasn't a good enough standard, why did we sanction the loan in the first place. He played Champions League football at Celtic last season and played in front of 50,000 demanding fans. I think he's had his preparation and now we'll find out if he's readyHa. Innit. I realise that I sound like i've got a serious downer on Roberts, but I don't. I just genuinely believe it's a year too early and one more loan to a higher level will be what is required.
Totally agree about Sanchez. I think he'd be a game changing addition to our squad so here's hoping!

Not sure Pep will always play Sane wide - he may get opportunities down the middle where his pace will be just as telling.
This absolutely.
Try him out, if he's very close, keep him at it, if he's close but not quite imminent, loan him in Jan, if he's obviously not going to make the step up, sell him.
All our young players who are anywhere near it, should have been going through that process for the past few years.
Arsenal will never sell him to PL rival considering current difficult situation of Wenger and Gazidis. So he will probably leave for Bayern and City will sign Douas Costa or Coman from Bayern.
Scott Sinclair looks a world beater in that league, Roberts has talent but I doubt he's ready for City...
