I agree he is small lad, he needs to grow into a strong player. Hopefully he will develop well with us.

Is this lad David Silva's apprentice?

No, that's Manu Garcia! :)

 

[cleavers]

Is he any good?

No better than Lucien Mettomo.

Is the reason he hasnt been announced yet because the clubs cant register players in the weekends. Ive heard something along those lines before.

Not sure how I feel about him going into the EDS for the season. Get him out on loan somewhere and get him used to consistent first team football at a high level

It's great we're looking to sign good young talent, but let's not go overboard. We seen what happened last week with Delph, so until it's announced let's just remain hopeful.

Mettomo was world class and if Roberts grows into half the player then he will have done well. Only reason Mettomo never made it to the very top was that he had a few injuries and was shit at playing football, but if these could have been sorted out by our staff then we could have had a potentially 30m player on our books when that was a lot of money
