Ian Harte raves about Leeds United forward Tyler Roberts

Roberts joined Leeds from West Brom in the January transfer window of 2018, and hasn’t been able to cement a maintain consistency in his game. He is a highly talented forward, and has showcased flashes of brilliance at times under Marcelo Bielsa, but his progress has been hampered through recurrent injuries.

The 21-year-old is a versatile player who can either play as an attacking midfielder or as a striker. Bielsa personally prefers him in the attacking midfield role. Roberts has managed only 45 appearances for the Whites since joining the club, but there’s a general feeling about him that he could have a bright future ahead of him.
