Patrick Roberts to Birmingham compendium

But Traore the only one of those who can play RW Shirley

Talbi and Mundle can both play there too. Mundle was awful on the left wing when he first came. He literally passed it square inside every time. Looked extremely limited and stilted. He looked quite dangerous on the right. Then out of the blue he started to perform very well on the left. It doesn't mean he can no longer play on the right. He could definitely play right wing back because he's the best tackling winger we have alongside Le Fee.

Haway then, what was he like? Played the full 90 I noticed.

Pat is a cracking player for the championship or Scots Premier and he was a food servant and I will be forever thankful for that pass in the play of final

But not sure he could do anything in the prem and for me I would give Talbi a run in the team but who am I to question RLB

Of course he did. Why are people in denial. He barely scored and created few chances. That is what he was there to do. Yes, he was important for our shape buts that nowhere near enough now. Neil, O'Nien and Patto were all better than Roberts last year and they can't get a sniff.

Good servant but people are in denial about Roberts.

Correct , apart from overlooking he was the most productive player assists wise

Would he have been worse than Traore, Tabli or Adringa?

I don’t think so the knars

Of course he is. I think your on a wind-up. As much as I liked PR. We have moved on.
My worry is for this messagboard when we hit a bad spell, which we will. The place will be in up-roar. More so when we have thought processes like this
 
Nowt against Roberts at all. A cracking servant for us who took a move because he wanted to play. We've gone in a different direction and he'll most likely leave, but he should do so with the best wishes of the fanbase. He played his part in the clubs recovery.
 
He's obviously got ability, but I think he doesn't have the physicality to compete in the PL tbh.

He would have probably seen as much game time as Dan Neil if he had stayed.
