Player Thread: Patrick Roberts

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers: "Patrick (Roberts) is different to Sterling. Raheem is speed, wing play, Patrick is more a David Silva type."
 
I'd actually agree with Brendan there. Roberts dribbles better than Silva, but he's similar in the fact that he's more about close control and quick feet, like Silva, when compared to Sterling.
 
The lad does nothing better than Silva at this moment, FACT. Rodgers should use him more as a No.10 i think i fully season 35-45 games the lad will mature playing in a similar style to our's, maybe even ready for England squad, dont take much does it...

No one thinks he does anything better than Silva yet obviously. Point is he's closer to Silva technically speaking than Sterling, and I agree. He's much more of a natural dribbler than merlin is as well.

More Hazard than Silva IMO,either way,certainly not a traditional winger,but then neither is Raheem....!

Sterling is more like Robben, very fast, direct, dribbles past people. Roberts is similar to Ribery - more creative, takes a lot more touches when running with the ball, dribbles through people.

I do , Roberts likes to beat people , whilst Silva passes sidewards

Silva as beat about 5 players in his whole time at City , Roberts can do that in one game
 
If Rodgers wants to develop Roberts to be more creative like Silva that is fantastic news for us. He's got a good track record with youth.
