Patrick Roberts to Birmingham compendium

[smixsell]

Its not fair really as you've never seen him at prem level. Its just guess work

It's "not fair" to conclude that someone who is not good enough defensively against championship players would not be good enough defensively in the PL? It certainly seems a more than reasonable conclusion to me.

He was good enough against championship players though.

We're obviously not watching the same matches marra.

We are,patrick was great at his defensive duties,especially second half of season. In fact,i yhink it affected his attacking play,as he was definitley asked to sit deeper.. Opinions,eh!

 

[MustardAndOnions]

He would be better than rigg like tbf

True. If it weren't for Roberts' very poor defensive ability, he'd be useful to us at the moment, especially with Traore out. Unfortunately, he is weak as piss defensively and that just doesn't work at all in our current system. It really doesn't work all that well at this level in any system.

Eh?

Roberts worked his bollocks off

It’s why RLB always picked him

Why do people think it’s ok to just start making stuff up

100% would’ve offered more than Rigg as a winger but ultimately wouldn’t have had many minutes with everyone fit / here to play. Will always love PR and hope he’s successful wherever he is.

Yeah this

 

[Northern Munkey]

Id recall him. We have zero RW options and if nothing else might force Brum to cough up to get him perm.

 

[glendvd100]

pretty sure he’d want to try and prove himself as a premier league level footballer more than anything else

Whether bringing him back would be beneficial for either party I don’t know

Mental people think Roberts gets in this team.

I’d take him back as an option off bench like

At the age of nearly 29 he has only appeared on the pitch a handful of times in the English Premier League, there's a reason for that.

 

[Sunderland06]

Having a great season, happy for him.

Hopefully adding a bit to his transfer value.

[Hulkster]

He's obviously a better winger than either Rigg or Hume, who've both played there throughout the course of the season.

Thrilling

He’s nowhere near PL quality you tit

 

[Durhamish]

Sheff wed play off semi. Sheff utd play off final.

So 2 in 4 years

 

[BlackHoleSun]

Did a big fist pump when he scored

Had a a fairly typical Roberts game. Drifted in and out with a few moments of quality

You’re correct.

However starting Hume on the right in the PL is 10x more effective than starting Robert’s would be, for our overall game.
