If Celtic want him they should stump up the cash. He went there and was such a success that they want him back, ok, fine, show us the colour of your money. If not, City should be looking to sell to the highest bidder. No loan.

Problem is nobody appears to banging the door down to get hold of him. At this stage I am not sure that he has a future with us I can't see him being able to break into the squad this time next year after another year out on loan especially if he ends up back in Glascow.
 
The replies to any City Watch tweets about Roberts are flooded with Celtic fans every time. "Here he could play in the Champions League" "The SPL is better than you think" "The same club you couldn't beat last season" Can they really not realize that isn't the place for a player with the potential to be an England international to be playing?
 
If that is the sum of his ambitions its very disappointing. 6 million and an 80% sell on fee or something equally stupid is the only way this could possibly be of value to us. Reckon he's worth at least 20 in this market.
 
The problem City have is he wants to return to Celtic & would happily sign a permanent deal with the club if allowed, those facts alone mean we don't hold all the cards.
 
I've been in Glasgow for a couple of months and the Celtic fans fucking idolise him. Don't blame him for wanting to come back up tbh, as a young lad feeling wanted can go a long way.
Plus, it's a fucking ace city.
 
Brenda tapping up through the media...

“He is clearly a big talent and between now and the end of the market Pat and Manchester City will decide where it is he can go.
“The player, of course, will have big say in where is best for his development this coming season.
“If he is available and we can have him then we’d love to take him.”
