A lot of Leeds United fans have flocked to a post from All Leeds HQ asking them what they would do with Tyler Roberts if the Whites are promoted.
This drew a great response, and it seems that many Leeds fans would keep Roberts with the squad rather than loan him out.

Worth keeping. If fit is a potential star.

Keep. He gives us a bit of something else. The lads a beast, he’s my neighbour and he’s always out running round and about.

Ah stop, he’s class, needs an injury free run though

I’m surprised this is even a question. Keep him. He’s the most gifted player in the squad.

Without a shadow of a doubt! If he stays fit, he really is one for the future.

What do we think?
The 21-year-old has made 14 appearances this season, in which he has scored three goals.
However, he has missed the matchday squad on 16 occasions in the league so far this year.
Would you keep Roberts?
Yes, the lad deserves a chance
No, won't make the cut
Despite this, though, in Leeds’ 4-0 win over Hull City before the league was suspended, the former West Bromwich Albion youth player came off the bench to score two goals.
The Whites then only managed to play one more game before the Championship was suspended, but that appearance off the bench against the Tigers indicated that Roberts could yet be an important player for Leeds going forward.
There was talk earlier in the season that Marcelo Bielsa saw Roberts as an ideal candidate for the number 10 role. Therefore, it is no surprise to see these Leeds fans wanting to keep Roberts at the club, even if the Whites are promoted.
