Jim Beglin spotted Tyler Roberts limping during Leeds United v Arsenal
Jim Beglin fears that Tyler Roberts could be carrying a minor injury as he spotted him limping during the Leeds United v Arsenal game on Saturday.
The Whites ended up losing 4-1, and while Roberts lasted the entire 90 minutes, there were concerns that he may not be a hundred per cent.
He was seen limping on a few occasions which led to BT Sport’s Jim Beglin claim that Marcelo Bielsa could be worried about the situation.
Speaking on commentary for the Premier League world feed, Beglin said, “That’s not what Bielsa wants to see. Roberts limping there. He looks to be in some discomfort and hopefully, it’s not another injury.”
Pack of cards
It seems like at least one Leeds player is picking up an injury each time they step on the pitch to play in the Premier League.

Jack Harrison was the latest casualty against Arsenal and he had to be withdrawn immediately, but Roberts could have picked up something as well.
Due to his lack of game time, Roberts may not have stated the severity of the injury, but it remains to be seen whether something comes up in the coming days.
While he’s not our preferred attacking option, given how limited the options are, Bielsa would want as many players available to choose from.
Liverpool are unlikely to be easier than Arsenal and the Whites could be on the receiving end of another drubbing here.
Hopefully, he is fit enough for that game as Leeds are expected to be without Harrison, Dan James and Patrick Bamford as well.
