Many Leeds United fans have been reacting to footage of Tyler Roberts from their game against Sheffield United.
Marcelo Bielsa’s men ran out 2-1 winners thanks to an effort from Jack Harrison and an own goal by Phil Jagielka, but there was more to the game than just those goals, as this clip of Roberts, valued at £4.5m on Transfermarkt, shows.
@motforum posted this footage of the 22-year-old spraying a pass out wide to Harrison in the build-up to their second goal, comparing it to Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne’s later that day, and Leeds fans simply couldn’t get enough of it, with plenty of praise being poured onto Roberts for his part in the goal as well as his recent displays:
“Some ball that Tyler lad!!should keep the haters away a while”
Do you think Tyler Roberts should be competing with Bamford at centre-forward?
Yes
No
Roberts has come in for some serious criticism in recent weeks, but if he keeps producing moments like this, then the fans might start to look on him with a little bit more favour in the future.
