£4m Leeds United attacker needs to step up this season.
Leeds United attacker Tyler Roberts has been at the club 18 months, but is yet to really make his stamp on the team.
For a young player still just 20-years-old, that’s understandable. But this season Leeds need more from him.
With injury writing off Roberts’ first few months at Leeds, this is really his second full season he is entering now.
Last season Roberts played as both a striker, and an attacking midfielder.
Competition for places up front, and an ageing Pablo Hernandez, means playing in the number 10 role may be his best route into the team.
Roberts’ versatility will help him out, but he needs to score more goals.
Last season his return of three goals and five assists in 28 games was a moderate contribution.
He needs to become more clinical in front of goal and make it harder for manager Marcelo Bielsa to leave him out.
Signed for £4 million in early 2018 from West Bromwich Albion, Roberts is still a mystery.
Is he better as a striker, a midfielder, and is he good enough for Leeds?
This season Roberts must try and answer those questions.
