    He's better and more effective than Patrick Roberts was last season.

    Really? I didn't know that.

    It's a shame for him because he's class. But there's a load of reasons not to re-sign Rossco now.

    He only started 8 games.. and in all of the appearances he made he only contributed 1 assist and 0 goals. Not sure how much of an impression that can make

    It does in my opinion. He's better than Roberts...

    Have we actually sold anyone under KLD who has gone on to better things? Can't think of one off the top of my head

    Nice to be on the other side of that deal after some shockers we've done in years gone by.

    Ba isn't a wide player so maybe he's going to be given a chance centrally?

    I’ve seen him play when he was touted at Leeds as the next best thing. Good footwork ****e end product, a bit like Roberts but not as good on the ball.

    Admittedly though I didn’t tune in for all, ehem, 600 minutes of football he played at Sheff Wed last season. I’m just not pretending he’s mint when he’s barely racked up 2k minutes of championship football by the age of 24. If he was he wouldn’t be a free agent at his age.

    I think the club sees him as a wide player and that's where his most impactful performances came from i'd say

    If you watched him at sheff wed last season youd probably say he does improve us know

    The challenge will be can he do it over a full season but he was a joy to watch at them the 2nd half of tje season

    But is he better and more effective than Roberts was the season before last?

    Genuine question. I am normally clued up on players, but this lad hasnt really appeared on my radar before now. I remember Bielsa signing him and he had a bright start, other than that he hasnt really been one I have been aware of.

    Roberts had actually had a decent spell at Celtic though so he’d showed glimpses of what he could do, and even then he’s still bang aberate unless he’s getting babysat by several others. Poveda has done absolutely nothing anywhere.
