‘100%’, ‘We’ll look a much better side’ – Some Leeds fans want youngster to start v Blues
Tyler Roberts could be back in the Leeds United squad on Sunday when the Whites take on Birmingham City at St Andrew’s.
It was confirmed by Leeds’ official Twitter account earlier this week that Roberts, 20, is available for selection after missing the last six matches through injury.
And after losing Pablo Hernandez to injury last week, Leeds’ central midfield options have become increasingly sparse.
Adam Forshaw remains out while Jamie Shackleton, like Roberts, has only just returned to fitness too.
On Boxing Day, Stuart Dallas was played in the centre of the midfield as Leeds left it late to earn a 1-1 draw against Preston with Dallas scoring the last-gasp equaliser.
It is clear that the Whites need something different in their midfield and Roberts is someone who a lot of fans are pointing to now that he is available once again.
Leeds play Birmingham on Sunday after going three matches without a win but these supporters reckon that the Wales international can make a difference.
Here is a selection of their tweets:
